Custom Metal Stamping

Custom metal stamping is a common metal processing method used to manufacture a variety of metal parts. Common precision metal stamping materials are steel, copper, aluminum, etc.

FlourishLegend custom metal stamping process is divided into four key processes

1. Cutting

Shearing is the most basic processing method in the stamping process. It divides the sheet into lengthwise segments as needed. In shearing, a cutting die is used to separate the sheet into parts of the required length.

2. Punching

Punching is a processing method in the stamping process. It passes the plate through a punching die to drill the required holes in the material. Punching presses a part of the material into the mold by rapidly impacting the mold to form the required hole. In practical applications, punching can be used to make various parts, such as key holes, screw holes, positioning holes, etc. During the punching operation, the size and location of the holes need to be considered to ensure the rationality of the parts.

3. Bending

Bending is a commonly used processing method in the stamping process. It processes the plate into the required shape through a forming die. During the bending process, attention needs to be paid to the elastic deformation of the material and precise control of the mold angle to ensure the accuracy and geometry of the part.

In practical applications, bending can be used to make parts of various shapes, including angle steel, U-shaped pipes, L-shaped plates, etc. In the bending process, a suitable mold needs to be designed according to the shape of the part to ensure the accuracy and performance of the final product.

4. Deep drawing

Deep drawing is a processing method in the precision metal stamping process. It processes flat materials into parts with longer depth as required. During the deep drawing process, the material needs to be stretched into the required shape through a forming die.

In practical applications, deep drawing can be used to make cylindrical parts of various shapes, such as automobile fuel tanks, chimneys, pipes, etc. In the deep drawing process, it is necessary to control the deformation and stress of the material by adjusting the design of the mold and the processing parameters of the material to ensure the quality and performance of the final product.

5. What are the advantages of FlourishLegend’s customized metal stamping?

High production efficiency, easy operation, high material utilization, good surface quality and low cost.

Stamping process is one of the commonly used processing methods in the manufacturing industry. Shearing, punching, bending and drawing are the four basic processes in the stamping process. In practical applications, these four basic processes can process parts of various shapes by adjusting the design of the forming mold and material processing parameters. By learning and mastering these basic processes, the production efficiency of the stamping process and the quality of the product can be improved.

Custom metal stamping is a common manufacturing process. Also known simply as customized metal stamping, it involves the use of a precision metal stamping machine to deform and shape a metal workpiece. Metal workpieces usually consist of metal plates. To change the shape of a sheet of metal, a manufacturing company can stamp it. How exactly does metal stamping work?

Basic knowledge of custom metal stamping

Although it sounds complicated, precision metal stamping is a relatively simple manufacturing process. It requires the use of a stamping machine to deform and shape metal workpieces. Stamping presses are heavy-duty machines that basically sandwich a metal workpiece between a set of dies. They usually have one mold on the top and another mold on the bottom.

During use, the punch press presses the upper die down onto the lower die. Since the metal workpiece is placed between these two molds, it will take on their respective shapes. The base of the metal workpiece will take the shape of the counter mold. On the other hand, the top of the metal workpiece will take the shape of the upper die.
