Conceptually design an automated hydraulic machine or workstation with at least 3 manufacturing processes for example stamping, clamping, sorting, drilling, packing, material transfer and etc.
It depends on whether you want a single element or a complete hydraulic systemHydraulic machines are machinery that use fluid power to exert force to do a certain functionSo if you are asked to design a single element that works with hydraulic power, then you should design one of the following: - A centrifugal pump - A gear pump - A hydraulic cylinder (piston-cylinder) - A pressure valves - A hydraulic actuator- A hydraulic brakesAll those elements of a mechanical system use hydraulic power to workThe design of those elements is not simpleI remember years ago when I took part in designing a centrifugal pump, it took us about 9 months to design the components and select standard parts and define dimensions and produce working drawing and construction drawing_ _ _ On the other hand, if you want to design a hydraulic system, which is a system of interacting elements, (like the elements above) that work together to do a certain functionThen you may have those hydraulic systems as example; - A robotic manipulative arm ( with hydraulic cylinder ) - A hydraulic crane - A soil drilling machine - A garage gate open-close hydraulic mechanism - A Moveable bridge (google it!) Basically, any machine that requires exerting force on an object to move or lift somethingIn this case, you'll select the hydraulic components that do the function that you want and integrate them to work as a system.
