Pushp Agarwal

Contributed to the design optimization of existing machines and development of new designs across ISGEC's diverse product portfolio.

Key design and development projects executed-

• Ejector system for the easy removal of the component from die for 1000 ton mechanical press

-Structural design depending on the customer feedback and historical data.

• Stroke Indicator system for 400 ton drag link mechanism driven press, involving 2D structural modeling.
• Modification of the standard drive wheel assembly of moving bolster in 400 ton drag link mechanism driven mechanical press as a cost saving measure.
• Kinematic analysis and motion profiles of different linkage mechanisms such as eccentric drive, drag link, knuckle joint mechanism based on the required press specifications like nominal tonnage, rated distance, stroke length using Python.
• Gear train design for hot forging mechanical press, expanding the company's product range.
• Improvisation of welding life calculation through design calculations and FEA techniques.

Technical skills involved-

-Gear train design
-Structural design
-Linkage mechanism design
-Bearing selection
-Failure anaysis for static and variable (Fatigue) load applications
