    Current = 500 A
    Voltage = 20 V
    V = 20 mm/min
    ηHT = 0.9

    Heat Input/length = ηHT
    V × I
    =
    0.9 × 20 × 500
    N20/60

    = 27 kJ/mm

    Correct Option: A

    Current = 500 A
    Voltage = 20 V
    V = 20 mm/min
    ηHT = 0.9

    Heat Input/length = ηHT
    V × I
    =
    0.9 × 20 × 500
    N20/60

    = 27 kJ/mm

  1. Circular blanks of 35 mm dia are punched from a steel sheet of 2 mm thickness. If the clearance per side between the punch and die is to be kept as 40 microns. The sizes of punch and die should respectively be









  1. View Hint View Answer Discuss in Forum

    Dia of Die = 35 mm
    Dia of Punch = 35 – 2 × 0.04 = 34.92mm

    Correct Option: B

    Dia of Die = 35 mm
    Dia of Punch = 35 – 2 × 0.04 = 34.92mm


Direction: A cup is to be drawn to a diameter of 70 mm with 35 mm depth from a 0.5 mm thick sheet metal. The cup is drawn in one operation. Assume σu = 430 MPa.

  1. The required blank diameter is

    d² + 4dh
    = √70² + (4 × 70 × 35)
    D = 121.24 mm

    Correct Option: C

    d² + 4dh
    = √70² + (4 × 70 × 35)
    D = 121.24 mm



  1. A cylindrical cup of 48.5 mm diameter and 52 mm height has a corner radius of 1.5 mm. Cold rolled steel sheet of thickness 1.5 mm is used to produce the cup. Assume trim allowance as 2 mm per 25 mm of cup diameter. What is the blank size in mm?

    = √d² + 4dh
    D = √(48.5)² + 4 × 48.5 × 52
    D = 111.53 mm
    Trim Allowance = 2/25 × 48.5 = 3.88 mm.
    Total blank size = 111.53 + 3.88 = 115.41 mm

    Correct Option: B

    = √d² + 4dh
    D = √(48.5)² + 4 × 48.5 × 52
    D = 111.53 mm
    Trim Allowance = 2/25 × 48.5 = 3.88 mm.
    Total blank size = 111.53 + 3.88 = 115.41 mm
