Over-deformation or damage on the rivet tip is always a major concern during any riveting process. This is due to the high force requirements of some riveting methods such as press or impact riveting. However, the Orbital Riveting method deforms the rivet at a much lower force (up to 5 times less) than conventional riveting […]

The term “quenching” is a heat treatment process for ferrous materials that improves their physical and mechanical properties by altering their crystalline structure. It involves heating the ferrous workpiece to a high temperature, then quickly cooling it. The quenching or cooling medium is typically oil or water. However, the Salt Quenching process uses various mixtures

Die maintenance and repair is an essential aspect of ensuring productivity in a metal stamping process. Generally, it begins with inspection, and then a series of activities to correct issues identified during the inspection. This article reviews the features of high-quality dies, a typical maintenance and repair procedure, and minimizing the costs of this process.

Delve into the steps of the austempering process as well as the key difference between austempering and ausforming.

What is fine blanking? This metal blanking process is popular in diverse applications since it can shape the workpiece into functional parts with a simple die and punching mechanism. It involves placing the metal into the blanking die and applying a punching press downwards. Thus, the punching force shears the material into a desired shape,

Metal stamping shapes metal sheets into various forms and designs. From automotive parts to household appliances, metal stamping plays a crucial role in the cost-effective and efficient production of a variety of products.

In earlier days, fabricating complex parts was an expensive and inefficient process. Typically, manufacturers had to change the tool in a single press repeatedly or use multiple presses with each performing a single action to produce one part. But with progressive metal stamping, a manufacturer can eliminate these hassles and cost-effectively fabricate better quality parts.
