ironstein Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 I got an Anyang 88, I'm interested to see the results, count me in Sam! I really like this hammer! Thing runs like a striped ape! I Don't think it can beat bionic Blu though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Madmike Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 John, would you have a go with the BIG Octagon ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ironstein Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 ok, i threw a yellow hot piece of 8 inch by one inch square under the anyang 88 today and the numbers came out as .651 for five blows, and .405 for ten blows, this was two inch section (accross the die). Keep in mind that this machine is only two weeks old, and i just have it bolted to the 4 inch slab with a piece of 3/4 plywood underneath. This machine hits hard, scale bounces up from the floor at every blow. I need to pour a foundation because i can feel the powerloss with the 4 inch slab. James Johnson was great to deal with, and he was the deciding factor for me to buy this machine, he stands by his equipment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JNewman Posted August 21, 2012 Share Posted August 21, 2012 Good to hear you have the hammer up and running. Once you get used to the hammer it may beat the Massey yet, I get maximum blows with a more gradual application of the treadle and probably would not have gotten as good a result when I first got the hammer. The 2" is probably a better test for the bigger hammers anyways although my current dies are probably not big enough to try that. They are only 3.5" wide and I am a flattened 2" piece will end up wider and longer than that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dillon Sculpture Posted August 21, 2012 Share Posted August 21, 2012 I don't know John I really didn't hold back, in fact most of the work was done in the first two blows. The thinner the material gets that ramp of movement really starts to climb. I also did one at 7 blows and it only moved a couple thousand. I think when you get into the bigger hammers 1" is kind of ridiculous, a better test would be like you say 2" or even 4"? I would like to see some of these smaller hammers that have great numbers posted smack on some 4" for sure! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
basher Posted April 7, 2014 Share Posted April 7, 2014 I finaly got round to doing this, gas forge and different distances between hammers (the goliath is 20 meters away....... sahinla 50kg (112lb) air 0.720 and 0.499 goliath 60lb mechanical 0.739 and 0.500 so I guess my sahinla is under performing and the little Goliath is doing fine. I'll add that although It would seem that I am getting about the same power from both of these hammers the versitility of the sahinla means that I seem to use it all the time. I'll have a go on the alldays when I have the switch fixed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MOONY Posted April 7, 2014 Share Posted April 7, 2014 i had a samuel platt galith it hit like all dickens , only 56 lbs but it could forge no trouble 3'' bar mild steel harder steel it was a bit slower on but, i sold it and installed a 55K G anyang its a ok hammer you just have to not let them get real hot or the oil will glaze up the control valves , i flush mine with a bit of diesel after a few full oil cans go through Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
basher Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 massey half hundredweight . running 4hp motor. 5 blows 0.745 10 blows..558 so about what i would expect. looking at the hammers I have and their BPM I think the goliath at 240 bpm would get more work done than the sahinla at 220. I would love to see a chart that contained HP and bpm. I used to run a Goliath on 1hp , the one I have now is 5hp and runs rings around the one horse machine . anyhow .....
