Yeah, the pressers weren't anywhere close enough to put the pressure on the balls. The pressure should have been made out of tungsten or at least steel
I am a retired metal forger. One of the presses I had access to was 24,000 Tons. We also had a 12,500 and a 500. ton. One day I was exercising the 24 and decided to see what it would do to a wooden 4x4, it was about a foot long. It took down to just under a 1/4'' and then stoped. At this point I was dumbfounded I thought it would take down to paper thin. I was about to pull back on the control lever, and that is when the wood exploded. ( was now petrified) I was in a very large building by my self until the would explode. that is the exact time some of my superior’s come walking in the side door next to the large roll up door. A good size piece of the wood hit the roll-up door as they stepped in the building. There was a large bang at the roll-up door, next to them, they looked to see what the racket was, but the wood had ricocheted off in another direction. I pulled up on the lever, and removed the evidence promptly, they shrugged it off, know body was hurt, and this foolishness was never repeated again.
It must had been water in the wood who had becomes steam, which expands to 2,000 times the volume of it in the liquid state - so it was really a steam explosion.
that isn't how petrified wood forms (lithified through replacement mineral precipitation.) Basically the wood is replaced by crystalline minerals and becomes stone... which still preserves the original shape and detail of the original wood structure.
I would like to see what this looks like using a thermal camera. These steel and tungsten objects must get really hot when subjected to so much pressure.
It’s not the pressure it’s the friction from being reshaped. So the tungsten would not be very hot since it is not reshaped while the distorted steel would burn through plastic. To replicate it try hammering a nail into a knife
I google afterward.. I was expecting it to shatter because of the cold. It turns out the extreme cold actually makes steel stronger. Something about molecular bonds being harder to separate.
@@sshah2545the action lab has done a video on this. Actually the molecules come closer so the steel ball does become harder but it should also become more brittle, ie, it's tensile strength and malleability will decrease
@@sshah2545 When steel becomes harder, it also becomes more brittle. That's work hardening. You can create work hardening on a paperclip, i.e. bending it until it breaks.
Helps you appreciate how annealed roller bearings that the wheels of your car turn on are able to last through decades of shock & severe impact out on the road There will be examples of higher milage, but personally my mother's subaru reached 250,000 miles on the same wheel bearings before she sold the car. (A 1992 Loyale) A neighbor with an 80's Toyota truck reached 350,000 before he finally replaced the bearings during a brake job
There are different grades. Those seen were not actually "bearings" but "valves". Typically the ones used for load bearing are made of 455C steel and tempered to around 60 Rockwell (SUPER hard) Carbide ones go much higher and I suspect the one that broke his setup causing the crash was Carbide not Steel. The 455 one had to be the one that shattered at the start of the video.
Bearings are used in a insane amount of heavy machinery that require a lot of wear and put a lot of abuse on them. They can take a lot, like a lot, a lot.
This is actually a really good analogy for how enriched plutonium can go supercriticl when in a situation where the stresses keep exponentiating from further and further pressure, until the rate of the runaway react, or in this case the microcracking and deforming of the steel balls, goes from 0 to 10 to 10,000,000,000,000 in such a fast time that it appears to the outward eye like a singular instant explosion when in reality is a compounding mass failure of micro cracks and fails that happen millions of times in less than a second which has incredible force
Pois creio que após a expansão há o efeito de vácuo e por isso ocorreria uma descarga elétrica cujo pico um receptor de AM detectaria, pois relâmpagos são descargas térmicas instantâneas que causam o vácuo atmosférico cuja implosão de reação é o trovão.
As above so below. The smallest boom would seem nuclear in size if u were that small, and inversely if it was a real atom bomb size boom, if u were that small it would seem the same to u.
The SpaceX Starship uses thinner stainless steel because the cryogenic cold fuel makes the steel stronger at very low temps. This is a great practical example.
O melhor vídeo de esmagamentos que eu já vi. Sempre me perguntei o quanto aguentariam esses materiais da prensa. E hoje vejo que também possuem o seu limite de resistência. Parabéns pela experiência. E espero que a câmera e a lente não tenham quebrado!
My eyes twitching and squinting while I'm watching this, like my brain thinks I'm in the same room and knows something is about to go BOOM CHAKA LAKA 😂
Love this video but I guess I missed the switch between the comparative 30mm and 80mm tungsten Bearings. And what materials are the top compression component made from?
What do you mean don’t try this at home i just set up a 500 ton press in the living room do you know how long it took to convince the wife it was a functional piece of furniture 😂
I cannot believe the 80mm ball split the plate you was crushing it on. The fact most of your press tools were split by these is a testament to how hard they are
Amazing! Commercial aircraft typically use only 3 super strong hydraulic jacks to lift an aircraft weighing in excess of 400,00 lbs without fuel, in this case DC-10, MD-11. With three separate support arms, with a center column supporting the load, there is only a very small point of contact, roughly 2.5 inches with a center pin in the middle.
@jakefriesenjake Because the steel in ball bearings is so unbelievably hard it's a favorite for today's lunatic knife makers to make Damascus steel utilizing ball bearings among other things. If you haven't seen any of those videos I would highly recommend them. Think of it, turning Ultra hard steel ball bearings into knife blades that look like wood grain. If you've never seen Damascus steel you're missing something.
@@Smedley1947I collect knives and specialize in different types of steel. I use a dovpo straight razor to shave. Lol. I know steels. And tho those Damascus blades are pretty, it isn't true Damascus. Just saying, I wish they had used a different word for it to not confuse the types.
The synchronicity of the music along with the sound of the actuality was so spot on to be noted you can put that press in a song in the fact that tungsten dented your press what is both to me fascinating and insane I did not know that
The Tungsten was literally unbreakable under the 500 ton press, and went through the steel like butter. So was the 80mm ball, but that didn't put a literal gaping hole into it (the steel ball did too, but not nearly as much). I wonder just how much it would take to break Tungsten. I guess that's why they make military tanks out of the stuff
Interesting to me is that you seem to be able to handle all the pieces by hand after the press activity. I would think there would be a lot of heat generated by the process. Maybe some thing to add...
A lot of editing goes into the video, I'm sure they cut out what's probably at least several minutes of waiting for the stuff to cool down before handling it. I seriously doubt they go touch the stuff immediately.
I hope you don't mean what I think you mean. Otherwise technically it had all the same energy on it while pressed as when it burst. It just did not release any energy. Keep in mind when something that does not mean it heated up. Thats a chemical reaction not a physical one
@@aheadsounds2522pura Física, pois houve uma relaxação, e osciladores de relaxação têm esse princípio, mesmo tendo havido apenas um impulso ou ciclo na onda gerada. É tal como um monjolo, ou mesmo o rangir de uma porta, ou o eventual som do surto do crescimento de uma bananeira
The plastic sheets mounted on wooden frames used as blast shields are pretty cheap. That Nikon camera however is worth like 2000 euros. As an amateur photographer, my heart broke a little when i saw that camera... OOOF! Im glad he films in a warehouse and stays far away from the press studio. XD
Amazing how the explosion happened to unlock and rotate the lens off of the camera body without damaging any glass or the mount. More peculiar that it was revealed after an edit.
