What is the difference between sheet metal processing and stamping processing?

For those who are new to sheet metal processing, the vast majority of people confuse the concepts of sheet metal processing and stamping. Although these two have many similarities, there are still certain differences.

First of all, conceptually, sheet metal processing refers to the processing of metal plates, that is, the use of plates to make common items in our daily life, such as chimneys, iron drums, oil tanks and oil pots, ventilation pipes, elbows and heads, and round places , Funnel-shaped, etc. It is mainly produced by several processes such as shearing, bending and buckling, bending, welding, riveting, etc., and the stamping process uses the power of conventional or special stamping equipment to make the sheet In the mold, it is directly deformed and deformed, so as to obtain the production technology of product parts with certain shape, size and function. Sheet metal, die and equipment are the three elements of stamping processing. As can be seen from the above, stamping processing is only one of many processes in sheet metal processing. The relationship between them is included and included. The contact between the employees helps employees make fewer mistakes in the future operation process, and at the same time improves the technical level of employees in operation. About the partners who have just joined the profession of sheet metal processing, it should be more clear The difference between processing and punch processing, this ability is more helpful to the future work.

Blocking is a stamping process that separates the data along the opening summary, and the separated data becomes the workpiece or process part.

Flaring is a stamping process that expands the hollow part or tubular part outward.

Punching is a kind of stamping process that separates the waste material from the data or process parts along the closure, and obtains the required holes on the data or process parts.

Blanking is a stamping process that separates the waste material from the data or process parts along the opening summary. The opening summary constitutes a gap, and its depth does not exceed the width.

Punching is a stamping process that separates the waste material from the data or process parts along the opening. The opening is generally grooved, and its depth exceeds the width.

Punching the center hole is a stamping process that forms a shallow concave center hole on the surface of the process part. There is no corresponding protrusion on the reverse data.
