Intermediate plate pressing machine is a project, design for pressing an intermediate plate to bearing shaft. In this machine two type of pneumatic cylinders are used to press the intermediate plate, one cylinder is used to resist the whole weight of the component and fixture another type of cylinder is used for pressing the plate into the bearing shaft(vertically). Here the project title is given as semi-automatic because the loading and unloading of component is manual. This project includes the concept development design, analysis and control of press machine. Various parts of pressing machine are modeled by using Solid works modeling software and controlled by PLC (Programmable Logical Control). Behavior of intermediate plate is analyzed by using analyzing software ANSYS 18.1.
