Pressing Bushings
Pressing Bushings
(OP)
Does anyone have a good formula for calculating how many
psi is required for pressing a bushing into a hole (aluminum casting)? I need to design a press & need to
make sure I size my air or hyd. cylinders correctly.
Thanx!

RE: Pressing Bushings
you may need to experiment to zero in, and i would not use air in any press operation that requires some degree of control as air is compressible and reactions can change drastically with small differences in resistance.

Well, I certainly hope that my suggestion may have given you some idea and that it may be helpful to you. Goodbye and have a GREAT day.
