Diseño y construcción de un molde de embutido para vasos de 250 ml para el laboratorio de la FICM-UTA

Abstract

At the Technical University of Ambato, with the aim of improving teaching in the area of dies and supporting the theoretical aspect, through practical classes where the concepts and calculations that lead to obtaining stamped parts are put into action, the present technical project is proposed; therefore, it is important to create a guide that allows the understanding of this process, transforming the acquired knowledge into practical skills within the FICM laboratory. To address the problem, the technical project was carried out, which included the design, calculation, construction and performance tests of a stamping mold, which was adapted to the press found in the FICM-UTA laboratories. This process involved the conceptualization of the glass and the mold, until the verification of its functionality through performance tests, where it was possible to better adjust the mold for its correct execution. As a result of this project, a stamping mold was developed for the manufacture of 250 ml capacity glasses, which allows students to carry out practices, effectively complementing theoretical teaching with experience; Solutions were also sought to correct defects in the mould, such as the radius of the die and the diameter of the development of the material, allowing for correct use of the mould. In addition, the results obtained through these performance tests were the production of a 250 ml capacity glass with a single blow.
