Identifies the parts of the hydraulic press brake featuring the Adira up-acting press brake. Interactive section asks to identify parts after first learning them.

The student reads about the procedures for loading punches and turning a die block in an up-acting hydraulic press brake. The safe handling of press brake tooling is also illustrated.

In this learning activity you'll review safety considerations for using hydraulic press brakes.

Introduction to selecting the proper punch and die for air bending or bottoming when forming on a press brake. Includes charts and methods for selection.

Introduces two methods of determining bend allowance; one is simple and is an approximate, the other is more precise. Interactive part has learner calculate bend allowance and blank size.

In this animated activity, a drill-and-clamp machine is used to show an application of a pressure-reducing valve. Recommendations on how to properly make pressure adjustments are also provided.

This animated lesson shows how a pressure switch connected in a ladder circuit causes the cylinder of a hydraulic circuit to extend and retract.

Students examine standard pressure in this interactive object.

Learners compare the three scales used in pressure measurements: gage, absolute, and vacuum. A brief quiz completes the activity.

Learners read how inches of water column is used as a unit of pressure measurement. Practical applications and a conversion formula to psi are included.

Learners examine how vapor pressure is calculated. The vapor pressure of a liquid increases with increasing temperature. If the heat of vaporization and the vapor pressure at one temperature are known, the vapor pressure at a second temperature can be calculated.

In this animated object, learners examine the operation of a hydraulic relief valve and its internal components. A brief quiz completes the activity.

This interaction tests the student's knowledge of parts on a radial drill press.

In this document you'll review thread cutting using a drill press.

In this document you'll review drill press work-holding devices.

In this learning activity you'll explore parts of the drill press.

This review tests the student's knowledge of advanced cutting tools and operations on a drill press.

Learners take a virtual tour of the wide web central impression press and read directions for the operation of each component. This object includes animation, video clips, and audio.

Vapor pressure is the pressure exerted by molecules in the gas phase in equilibrium with a liquid or a solid. Two examples are used to illustrate vapor pressure: the drying of clothes and the evaporation of ice.

This review tests the student's knowledge of drill press accessories and procedures.
