Electric Press Machine by Using Stepper Motor

Abstract

Abstract: In ancient times material was shaped manually using hand hammers. Later on, big hammers were used to press large quantities of material at a time or to press a thick metal workpiece. Then after steam power and windmills were utilized to operate the large steam hammers. Prior to the invention of the machine press, workers were required to manually hammer metal by hand to change the shape of materials. After that, it cannot able used to change the shape of large or big size material, and itit’shysically ineffective. The steam hammer was developed around the mid – the 1800s and is also known as a drop hammer, the steam hammer or drop hammer was essentially an early version of the modern-day machine press. The only difference is that the steam hammer was powered by steam, whereas most modern-day machine presses are powered by hydraulics and electricity. Now day world, we are normally using a mechanical press machine and hydraulic press machine. In this paper, we are explaining about electric press machine by using stepper motor.
