How are Metal Stamping Parts Formed?

Hardware: Parts made from steel or some non-ferrous metals

Processing methods include cold/hot stamping, extrusion, rolling, welding, cutting, and other processes, with a broad definition.

Stamping parts: the most commonly used in hardware processing, referring to the molds used for steel/non-ferrous metal plates at room temperature, which are formed into shapes by providing the required pressure for processing with a press machine.

Metal stamping parts are widely used in various fields of our lives, including electronic devices, automotive parts, decorative materials, and so on. The stamping parts we usually refer to are cold stamped parts. For example, if you want to turn an iron plate into a fast food dish, you need to first design a set of molds. The working surface of the mold is the shape of the dish. Use the mold to press the iron plate, and it will become the dish you want. This is cold stamping, which directly uses the mold to stamp the hardware material.

Generally speaking, stamping factories have basic equipment including Shear Machines, CNC Punching Machines/Laser, Plasma, Waterjet Cutting Machines/Combination Machines, Bending Machines, as well as various auxiliary equipment such as unwinding machines, leveling machines, deburring machines, spot welding machines, etc.

Usually, the three most important steps in stamping factories are cutting, punching/cutting, and folding.

Stamping parts are sometimes also called plate metal, which comes from the English word plate metal. Generally, some metal sheets are stamped by hand or mold to produce plastic deformation, forming the desired shape and size, and can be further welded or processed with a small amount of mechanical processing to form more complex parts, such as chimneys, iron furnaces, and car shells commonly used in households.

Stamping processing is called sheet metal processing. For example, using sheet metal to make chimneys, iron drums, oil tanks and pots, ventilation ducts, elbow heads, sky gardens, funnel-shaped structures, etc., the main processes are cutting, bending edges, bending forming, welding, riveting, etc., which require a certain amount of geometric knowledge.

Stamped parts are thin metal parts that can be processed through stamping, bending, stretching, and other methods. A general definition is-

Parts with constant thickness during processing. Correspondingly, there are castings, forged parts, machined parts, etc. For example, the outer iron shell of a car is a sheet metal part, and some cabinets made of stainless steel are also sheet metal parts.

Modern sheet metal technology includes: filament power winding, laser cutting, heavy-duty processing, metal bonding, metal drawing, plasma cutting, precision welding, roll forming, metal sheet bending forming, die forging, water jet cutting, precision welding, etc.
