If a safety factor of 25 percent is added to the gripping force in Problems 1 and 2, what change in pressure would be required?

Problem 1–2

1. A mandrel gripper extends 1.25 inches into a part that has a 0.4-inch diameter hole. If 20 psi of air are used, calculate the lifting force applied to the part by the gripper.

2. A pin gripper overlaps a 1.5-inch diameter pin by 0.5 inch. If 15 psi of air are used, calculate the lifting force applied to the part by the gripper.
