In this video, we test how hot steel pipes get when crushed under a 300-ton hydraulic press, using a thermal camera to capture the heat in real-time! The results are more interesting than we expected. You'll see the steel bend and heat up as we apply massive pressure, and how quickly the heat spreads and cools down. This experiment was inspired by your comments, so we hope you enjoy it!
We also share some exciting plans for the channel and talk about an idea for a potential Hydraulic Press Channel / Beyond the press vacation experience. Let us know what you think in the comments!
