HYDRAULIC UNSCREWING DEVICE Calculations/Specifications

B. Control Cam Calculation

Thread Lead = 1/(Threads per inch) = 1/Pitch = Inches/Thread Thread Length = Length of threads to be removed from the cap A. Stroke (Inches) NOTE: Limit switches should be used if possible to limit full cylinder travel. This will extend the seal life inside the hydraulic cylinder.

a) Required revolutions (thread core) Thread Length =

+ Safety (.5 revolutions minimum)

Thread Lead b) 1. Required stroke – Inches = Gear Pitch Diameter x π x Required Revolutions If required stroke is too long, a cogwheel transmission should be used. 2. Length of Rack b 2 = x + y + b 1 c) Stripper stroke (Inches) = Cylinder Stroke – Required Rack Stroke

C. Unscrewing Force These figures should only be used as a guideline, as many other factors will affect the calculation (material, variation of dimensions, material shrinkage, core surface area, temperature, lubricants, friction, etc.). f) Residual Pressure (PSI) = 1/100 of maximum injection pressure g) Effective core surface area (Square Inches or in 2 , Outer Core Cylinder Shell) Flat end of threaded core neglected, x 2 value for 45° triangle thread shape = major thread dia. of the core x π x thread height x 2 h) Unscrewing torque (in-lb f ) = Residual Pressure x Effective core surface area x major thread radius of core i) Unscrewing force rack (lb f ) Unscrewing Torque X number of cavities = Gear pitch radius k) Hydraulic force (lb f ) NOTE: x 1.5 is 50% Safety Factor, if x 1.0 there would be no safety factor. = Unscrewing Force x 1.5
