Thats 60,000 Tons..per square inch btw

Area is what, 10' x 10'? What's the total force work out to?

Depends on the size of the content of the dies.

Assume 10' X 10' as I said, and empty platens. What is the total
force?

The total force if adjusted to max loading, is 60,000 tons per square
inch.


Can you provide a cite for your number? Perhaps you could compare it
to other industrial processes you've encountered in your vast
experience.


Sure I could. Why should I?


To support your own statement, to show off your engineering chops, to
provide entertainment for incredulous readers who might have wondered
what level of thinking they could buy for $75 an hour.

Off to LA for a few days.


Be sure to keep your distance from that 60k ton psi warehouse. They
may be trying to generate some kind of gravitational singularity. I
doubt the brakes on any of your clunkers could prevent you being
sucked in.
