I have a job coming up where I need to glue 5 pieces of 19mm thick x 14cm x 180cm timber to form a timber post with cross sectional area of 140mm x 95mm, 1800mm long.
They are all flatsawn so therefore 10kg/cm2 (150psi) should suffice?
14 x 180 = 2520cm2 x 10kg/cm2 = 25200 kg
I have a pneumatic table but the ram can only exert 4000N at 0.8mpa each, thats roughtly 400kg, there are 6 rams, therefore 2400kg.
it seems I have to use my T bar clamps(1500kg capacity) or my Urko clamps (1800kg capacity)
thoughts?
