Effective Remedies for Punch and Die Chipping Problems

May 15, 2019

A material-dense punch and die combo can absorb a great deal of punishment. Pushed to its limits, however, even a high-quality tool combo will chip. The overall piston-rolling strength of the tool holds out for a while longer. The impact-driven […]

The Importance of Die Clearance in Punching Operation

May 1, 2019

Without die clearance tolerances, punching strokes would become woefully inaccurate. The equipment could still send the punch operation downwards accurately, with the tool moving as if it were on an invisible rail, but a poorly configured die-to-punch gap would then […]

How Does CAD-CAM Technology Help in Engineering and Manufacturing of Materials?

April 17, 2019

Computer Aided Design involves program design space, parametric models, and proprietary software packages. By itself, this field of engineering can’t create a real-world product. Enter Computer Aided Manufacturing (CAM), with its machine codes and automated machinery. This is the second […]

Diamond-like Carbon Coating: An Innovation in Punch and Die Manufacture

April 4, 2019

Diamonds are the hardest naturally occurring material known to man. They’re used on drill bits and abrasive cutting blades to carry out all sorts of tough tooling jobs. Other materials, even tough carbides, find that kind of work next to […]

Progressive Stamping Die: Why Precision Matters

March 20, 2019

As that first word infers, Progressive Stamping Die stations use a sequential approach. One operation is carried out, then the next stage is initiated, and then the next, and so on, until a fabrication run is complete. Being as how […]
