  • Characteristics and advantages of sheet metal design

    Characteristics and advantages of sheet metal design

    First of all, we need to know what is sheet metal? The remarkable feature of sheet metal is that the thickness of the same part is the same. According to the definition, sheet metal is a cold working process of sheet metal, including shearing, punching / cutting / compounding, folding, riveting, splicing, forming (such as […]

  • Hydraulic sheet metal bending machine

    Hydraulic sheet metal bending machine

    The bending radius of sheet metal is a value required in the sheet metal drawing, which is difficult to determine in actual processing. In fact, the bending radius of the sheet metal is related to the material thickness, the pressure of the NC bending machine and the width of the lower die groove of the […]

  • How to determine the bending sequence of sheet metal bending?

    How to determine the bending sequence of sheet metal bending?

    General bending sequence Short side first and then long side: Generally speaking, when there are bends on all four sides, the short side first and then the long side is conducive to the processing of workpieces and the assembly of bending molds. First the periphery and then the middle: under normal circumstances, it is generally […]

  • Process of sheet metal parts from making to forming

    Process of sheet metal parts from making to forming

    1、 Blanking. After the drawing is successful, the blanking methods shall be determined according to the expansion drawing, batch gap and technical requirements, including laser, CNC punch, plate shearing, die and so on. The NC punch is affected by the cutting tool. For the processing of some special-shaped workpieces and irregular holes, it should take […]

    Sheet metal processing manufacturers generally have many kinds of processes, and bending process is one of them, which is often used. Problems are inevitable in this processing process. Then I will introduce you how to solve the problems encountered in the bending process. There are many common problems in the bending process. Here are three […]

  • Sheet metal strength design

    Sheet metal strength design

    Sheet metal parts are commonly referred to as sheet metal parts. Sheet metal refers to a metal plate whose thickness is much smaller than its length. Due to its special geometry and small thickness, it has the advantages of small processing volume, light weight, easy cutting, standardized shape and so on. It can be used […]
