What are the advantages of metal stamping
Definition of metal stamping: Stamping is a method of processing parts by applying pressure or tension to a plate, strip, or profile through a mold to plastically form the plate. Sometimes, shearing force is applied to the plate to separate it, thereby obtaining a certain size, shape, and performance.
Advantages of metal stamping:
1. The stamping process has high production efficiency, convenient operation, and is easy to achieve mechanization and automation.
2. During stamping, because the die ensures the size and shape accuracy of the stamping part, and generally does not damage the surface quality of the stamping part, and the life of the die is generally long, the stamping quality is stable, the interchangeability is good, and the stamping is "exactly the same".
3. Stamping can process parts with a wide range of dimensions and complex shapes, such as stopwatches that are as small as clocks and watches, side rails of automobiles, and covers. In addition to the cold deformation hardening effect of materials during stamping, the strength and stiffness of stamping are both high.
4. Stamping generally does not generate chips and scrap materials, resulting in low material consumption and no need for other heating equipment. Therefore, it is a material saving, energy saving processing method and lower cost.
