Metal stamping for Stamping
Parts Assy is a
form of metalworking that is completed using various levels of difficulty.
Almost anyone can form their own jewelry, flowers, numbers and letters out of
metal using metal stamping kits or other tools. The higher the quality of the
metal used, the longer these personal things will last. Metal stamping is also
an industrial fabrication process used to create weaponry, vehicle components,
dollar bill changers, vending machines, decorative sheet metal parts, medical
life-saving devices, and many other items. 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.
This could be a single
stage operation where every stroke of the press produce the desired form on the
sheet metal part, or could occur through a series of stages. The process is
usually carried out on sheet metal, but can also be used on other materials,
such as polystyrene. When working with metal stamping in the industrial world,
material quality is very important. A metal stamping company may work with
aerospace or medical industries creating products that can save lives-if the
metal used is of low quality, lives can be destroyed instead.
Stamping simulation is a
technology that calculates the process of sheet metal stamping, predicting
common defects such as splits, wrinkles, and material thinning. Also known as
forming simulation, the technology is a specific application of non-linear
finite element analysis. The technology has many benefits in the manufacturing
industry, especially the automotive industry, where lead time to market, cost
and lean manufacturing are critical to the success of a company. Recent
research by the Aberdeen research company (October 2006) found that the most
effective manufacturers spend more time simulating upfront and reap the rewards
towards the end of their projects.
