The design and Manufacturing, along with the analysis of the Progressive press tool, are designed primarily to carry out the operation on the sheet metal components. This is one crucial phase in sheet metal manufacturing. The components are manufactured using piercing, punching, and blanking processes, which have high dimensional accuracy; therefore, most industries depend on the press tool. The top connection strip is a part that is used in the connection of the electrode of capacitors in series to get the more output voltage or current generally, this type of series connection of capacitors are used in PFC (power factor correction) sectors for controlling power factors in industrial plants, electricity department substation, etc. The top connection of the capacitor is a sheet metal component made up of high purity copper material. Hence, based on the high production requirement of the same, an advanced tool for the Manufacturing of the top connection is needed. The project work consists of the design and Manufacturing of the progressive tool, the sequence of operations is planned initially, and then the press tool is designed. The design will make in AUTOCAD 2016, and solid modeling in Solid edge.
