AI Thread 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?
 
Thread 'What type of toilet do I have?'

Thread 'What type of toilet do I have?'

I was enrolled in an online plumbing course at Stratford University. My plumbing textbook lists four types of residential toilets: 1# upflush toilets 2# pressure assisted toilets 3# gravity-fed, rim jet toilets and 4# gravity-fed, siphon-jet toilets. I know my toilet is not an upflush toilet because my toilet is not below the sewage line, and my toilet does not have a grinder and a pump next to it to propel waste upwards. I am about 99% sure that my toilet is not a pressure assisted...

Thread 'Thread No-Go plug gage allows 3 turns to enter. That's too many!'

After over 25 years of engineering, designing and analyzing bolted joints, I just learned this little fact. According to ASME B1.2, Gages and Gaging for Unified Inch Screw Threads: "The no-go gage should not pass over more than three complete turns when inserted into the internal thread of the product. " 3 turns seems like way to much. I have some really critical nuts that are of standard geometry (5/8"-11 UNC 3B) and have about 4.5 threads when you account for the chamfers on either...

Thread 'Physics of Stretch: What pressure does a band apply on a cylinder?'

Thread 'Physics of Stretch: What pressure does a band apply on a cylinder?'

Scenario 1 (figure 1) A continuous loop of elastic material is stretched around two metal bars. The top bar is attached to a load cell that reads force. The lower bar can be moved downwards to stretch the elastic material. The lower bar is moved downwards until the two bars are 1190mm apart, stretching the elastic material. The bars are 5mm thick, so the total internal loop length is 1200mm (1190mm + 5mm + 5mm). At this level of stretch, the load cell reads 45N tensile force. Key numbers...
