The quality of powder compaction may influence the performances of product directly. Traditional powder compaction mainly makes use of manual gravitational spiral loading machine or lever loading machine. Potential accident by the strike in powder compaction of initiating explosive device could risk life, property and the environment. To prevent this risk, automatic control system and control strategy can be used to guarantee no strike in pressing process. The scope of this paper is to analyze and review the control strategy for powder compact and discuss the experimental results for the application of the proposed strategy.展开更多

Based on the formula, a method for assessing reliability of initiating explosive devices with small sample size is established. Compared with the assessment method for devices with large sample size, the new method is correct and feasible and can be used to assess the reliability of initiating explosive devices with high reliability requirements.展开更多
