ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus for conducting a secondary operation on a workpiece such as punching or flanging, after a primary forming operation has been completed while the workpiece is still in the press. The secondary operation is performed by discharging a volume of hydraulic fluid to a working cylinder at a selectively controlled point in the press cycle, the hydraulic fluid pressurized by compression of a volume of gas by the press during the primary operation, and thereafter released by a solenoid valve at the time the secondary operation is to be performed. A discharge cylinder is mounted to one of the dies and is engaged to cause the hydraulic fluid to be pressurized by compression of the gas during the downstroke of the press.
