Shank: It is used as a part for installing the Press tool die in the slide of the press machine with proper alignment. Top Plate: It is used to hold top half of the press tool with press slide. It is also called Bolster Plate. Punch Back Plate : This plate prevents the hardened punches penetrating into top plate.
Shearing, also known as die cutting, [1] is a process that cuts stock without the formation of chips or the use of burning or melting. Strictly speaking, if the cutting blades are straight the process is called shearing; if the cutting blades are curved then they are shearing-type operations. [2]
Shearing – punching, stamping, scissoring, blanking; Abrasive material removal – grinding, lapping, polishing, water-jet; Heat – flame cutting, plasma cutting, laser cutting; Electrochemical – etching, electrical discharge machining (EDM), electrochemical machining (ECM) Every method has its limitations in accuracy, cost, and effect on ...
A typical compound fine blanking press includes a hardened die punch (male), the hardened blanking die (female), and a guide plate of similar shape/size to the blanking die. The guide plate is the first applied to the material, impinging the material with a sharp protrusion or stinger around the perimeter of the die opening. Next, a counter ...
Stamping includes a variety of sheet-metal forming manufacturing processes, such as punching using a machine press or stamping press, blanking, embossing, bending, flanging, and coining. [1] This could be a single stage operation where every stroke of the press produces the desired form on the sheet metal part, or could occur through a series ...
The slit material is rewound on paper, plastic or metal cores on the exit side of the machine. The process is used because of its low cost and high precision for mass production. Some machines have a program that monitors the blades and sharpens the blades often to maintain the quality and precision of the cut.
A press brake is a special type of machine press that bends sheet metal into shape. A good example of the type of work a press brake can do is the back-plate of a computer case. Other examples include brackets, frame pieces and electronic enclosures. Some press brakes have CNC controls and can form parts with accuracy to a fraction of a ...
An alligator shear, historically known as a lever shear and sometimes as a crocodile shear, is a metal-cutting shear with a hinged jaw, powered by a flywheel or hydraulic cylinder. Alligator shears are generally set up as stand-alone shears; however, there are types for excavators. The jaw size can range from 4 to 36 in (100 to 910 mm) long.
