International Seminar on Forming technology
24 January, 2018
Forming technology forms an integral part of manufacturing in many industries and has contributed
in the development of many new processing technologies, processing methods, machineries, tools
and solutions to design and fabricate end products/finished goods. To address the latest trends
developments and research in forming technology. IMTMA organises International Seminar on
Forming Technologies a day before the start of IMTEX Forming, which is held every even year.
The seminar focuses on Metal Forming Processes, New Materials, Tooling & Design and Emerging
Technologies and brings together the fraternity of forming technology on a common platform to
discuss related issues.
Connect
IMTMA will organize ‘Connect’, an awareness
programme for imparting knowledge
on the machine tool industry for young
engineers during IMTEX Forming 2018 at
BIEC. Students from both mechanical and
electrical engineering streams can avail this
opportunity to gather more knowledge of the
opportunities in store for them in the manufacturing industry. By interacting
with industry experts they will get to understand how machine tool industry
helps in industry growth and the role of an engineer in the manufacturing
industry.
i2 Academia Pavilion
Indian Machine Tool Manufacturers’
Association (IMTMA) has been
in the forefront of bonding
Industry - Academia linkage and
is continuously taking several
initiatives and offering a platform
for Indian Academia institutions to participate in its prestigious 53
IMTEX - Indian Machine Tool Exhibitions every year. At IMTEX
FORMING 2018, IMTMA provides an opportunity for Indian
Academic / R&D Institutions to show case their R&D capabilities
in Metal working field. This participation will be through display of four posters and product demonstration from each
institution. IMTMA will provide the display space to selected institution/s free of charge. | Global MDA Journal | NOV-DEC 2017

Hydraulics Versus Electrical Systems - CHAPTER 1
Fig. 1.7 shows the behavioral similarity of an electric resistor and the resistivity of a hydraulic line.
The figure shows the linear proportionality between the electrical current I and the voltage
difference ∆ ∆∆ ∆V across an electrical resistor. For the same voltage, small resistance passes electrical
current larger than largr resistance. Similarly, the figure shows the linear proportionality between the
fluid flow Q and the differential pressure ∆ ∆∆ ∆p across a hydraulic line. A hydraulic line with large
diameter is less resistive than a hydraulic line with small diameter. So, for same differential pressure,
large diameter line passes flow rate larger than small diameter line.

When a hydraulic valve performs its control function, fluid flow through the valve is accompanied
by a pressure drop. Valve manufacturers express the resistivity of a hydraulic valve by a term called
Valve Coefficient. Equation 1.9 shows the nonlinearity between the differential pressure ∆ ∆∆ ∆p across
the valve and the flow rate Q of hydraulic fluid that has a specific gravity SG. A large valve
coefficient means the valve passes a large flow for small pressure drop.

displacement pumps decrease displacement from the
maximum limit to zero flow (see chapter 5). The external
intervention can be carried out automatically or manually
by means of a hand wheel. In the first case, the dedicated
controllers can be controlled with a mechanical spring, load
sensing, electromechanical or electroproportional system.
Variable flow pumps (not all types are suitable) that can
reverse the flow are available: their outlet becomes the inlet
while their prime mover has a constant direction, which is
the prerequisite for closed circuit applications like wheel and
track drive or hoist and winch handling.

actually, the inevitable leakages cause the pressure of

compensation pumps, also known as self-balancedpumps,

Radial balance design must also take into account the fact
that teeth in mesh cannot fully expel oil. As a result, tiny

Some systems need the direction reverse of the prime
mover but their wheels cannot be inverted; under these
circumstances gear pumps known as reversible pumps are
employed because their inlets can turn into the outlets and
vice versa as they have the same bore.
Standard gear pumps (Figure 4.14) usually have the
following characteristics:
l Working pressure up to 250 bar
l Peak pressure up to 280 bar
l Rotational speed 500 ÷ 3000 rpm
l Absolute suction pressure 0.75 ÷ 0.85 bar

The pump leading gear is generally set to revolve clockwise;
anticlockwise revolution occurs when the back cover is
disassembled and wheels are inverted (i.e. the leading wheel
is replaced by the driven wheel and vice versa).
This operation must be carried out carefully in order to avoid
forcing and the position of the balancing bushing vis-à-vis the
housing must be marked so as not to reassemble it wrongly;
its positioning vis-à-vis the inlet and the outlet is essential as
well (Figure 4.13).
