Friction Drop Hammer

Listing ID #3445488

Suitable for precision forging for the Automobile, Railways, Defense, Aeronautics, Hand Tools, Agricultural, Bicycle and other engineering industries.ANVIL BLOCK: Made of Grey Cast Iron weighing approximately 20 times the nominal capacity of the hammer. It is machined on both the top and bottom faces to hold die holder firmly and maintain position of the columns. Die holder fixed in the anvil block is forged from high grade alloy steel hardened and positioned properly with alloy steel tapered wedge.COLUMNS, SLIDES and TUP: Cast Steel columns, duly annealed and machined, positioned by a large spigot on the underside of each foot which fits into a machined recess in the anvil block. Columns locked with tapered wedges of alloy steel to ensure firm alignment of columns which helps in accurate grinding of tup (made of EN-9 cast steel). The clearance between the tup and guideways attached to columns maintained with the help of tapered wedge which brings the columns inward and the drawback bolt provided which pushes the columns outwards. Synthetic rubber mat provided on anvil block on which the columns rest. This dampens the induced shock vibrations, which increases the life of the tup and columns and also ensures smooth working of the machine for longer period.
