Click For Summary
To calculate the force required to eject a sheet metal part from a die cavity, factors such as the coefficient of friction, surface area, elastic modulus, and material properties must be considered. The coefficient of friction is given as 0.35, with a surface area of 521.26 mm² and an elastic modulus of 68.9 GPa for 3003 Aluminium with a thickness of 0.7mm. Additional information, such as a drawing or diagram of the part, may be necessary for a more accurate calculation. Understanding these parameters is crucial for determining the ejection force effectively. Accurate calculations will ensure successful part ejection from the die cavity.

How do I calculate the force required to eject a sheet metal part from a die cavity.
Coefficient of friction: 0.35
Surface area: 521.26 mm2
Elastic modulus: 68.9 GPa
Material: 3003 Aluminium
Material Thickness: 0.7mm
Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks

Welcome, @Mike_5158 !

More things are involved in that calculation.
Could you provide a drawing or diagram of the part?
 
My idea is that I want to use immerse Whitetail Antlers in a fishtank to measure their volumetric displacement (the Boone and Crockett system is the current record measurement standard to place in a juxtaposition with) I would use some sight glass plumbed into the side of the tank to get the change in height so that I can multiply by the tank cross-section. Simple Idea. But... Is there a simple mechanical way to amplify the height in the sight glass to increase measurement precision...
