Chapter 1 Automotive Dies Terminology
Terminology related to
Auto Dies, including stamping process terminology, stamping die and stamping part terms, and other stamping processing terms. Most terms are provided with a sketch to understand. However, the white horse is not a horse. The term diagram is only a schematic example of the term, and does not include the entire content of the term. Moreover, the terminology here is only a generic term and does not include generic terms in some places.
Section 1 Automotive Stamping Process Terminology
Cut
Incision is a stamping process that places the material partially along the open profile rather than completely. The material that is cut apart and separated is located or substantially in the plane on which it was before separation.
TR
Trimming is a stamping process that uses a die to trim the edge of a forming step to have a certain diameter, a certain height, or a certain shape.
Latch
The tongue is a stamping process that places the material along the open contour rather than completely. The partially separated material has a certain position required by the workpiece and is no longer located on the plane where it was before separation.
Cut off
Cutting is a stamping process in which the material is separated along the open contour, and the separated material becomes a workpiece or a process member.
Reverse-drawing
The reverse drawing is a drawing process in which the inner wall of the hollow process member is everted.
Features of reverse drawing:
1 The reverse drawing material has a flow direction opposite to that of the positive drawing, which is advantageous for mutually canceling the residual stress formed during the drawing.
2 When the drawing is reversed, the bending and reverse bending of the material are less, and the cold work hardening is less, which is favorable for molding. In the deep drawing, the material located at the rounded corner of the press ring flows into the concave corner of the die, and the inner arc becomes an outer arc. In the reverse drawing, the material located at the inner arc is always in the inner arc position in the flow.
3 Reverse drawing will invert the original outer surface, and the scratch on the original outer surface will not affect the appearance.
4 The anti-draw blank and the die contact surface are more deeply drawn and the material flow resistance is also large, so generally no need to press the material ring. However, when the outer edge of the blank flows through the entrance of the die, the resistance has been significantly reduced, so the large-diameter thin material still needs to be pressed to avoid wrinkling.
5 The deep drawing force of the deep drawing can be about 20% larger than the positive drawing force.
6 The inner diameter D1 of the reverse drawn blank is placed outside the die, and the outer diameter d2 of the workpiece passes through the inner hole of the die. Therefore, the wall thickness of the die cannot exceed 1/2 (D1-d2). That is, the reverse drawing coefficient cannot be too large, and if the thickness is too large, the wall thickness of the concave die is too thin and the strength is insufficient. In addition, the radius of the die radius cannot be greater than 1/4 (D1-d2).
Piercing Center Hole
The piercing center hole is a stamping process for forming a shallow concave center hole on the surface of the process member, and the back material has no corresponding protrusion.
Piercing
Piercing is a process of separating waste material from a material or process piece along a closed contour (Figure 1-6). The desired holes are obtained on the material or process piece.
Blanking
Blanking is a stamping process that uses a die to separate part of a material or process piece from another piece of material, work, or waste.
Blanking is a general term for separation processes such as cutting, blanking, punching, punching, punching, cutting, cutting, trimming, cutting, cutting, and refurbishing.
Flushing
The fluting is a stamping process that separates the waste material from the material or process piece along the open profile, the open profile being grooved and having a depth that exceeds the width.
Flaring
The flaring is a stamping process in which the hollow member or the tubular member is expanded outwardly.
Embossing
The embossing is a stamping process in which a punch is pressed into one side of the process member to force the material into the opposite pit to form a projection.
Forming Rib
The rib is a kind of undulating shape. When the local undulations appear in the form of ribs, the corresponding undulating forming process is called embossing.
Twist
Twisting is a stamping process in which a part of a straight or partially straight process piece is twisted at a certain angle relative to another part.
Continuous drawing
Continuous drawing is a stamping method in which a strip (rolling material) is gradually formed into a desired shape and size by multiple drawing using the same sub-die (stage-in-drawing die).
Crimping
Curling is a stamping process that rolls the edge of the workpiece into a closed circle. The axis of the curled circle is linear.
Roll edge
The crimping edge is a stamping process in which the upper edge of the hollow member is wound into a nearly closed circle.
Drawing
Drawing is a stamping process in which a straight wool or process piece is curved. The curved surface is mainly formed by a material extending at the bottom of the punch and the upper part of the bead ring.
Bending
The bending is a stamping process in which the bending deformation is realized under the joint action of the pulling force and the bending moment, and the entire bending cross section is subjected to the tensile stress.
Drawing
Drawing is a stamping process in which a straight blank or process piece is turned into a hollow piece, or the hollow piece is further changed in shape and size. The drawing is mainly formed by flowing a material other than the punch into the die.
Differential temperature drawing
Differential temperature drawing is a deep drawing process that uses heating and cooling means to make the temperature of the deformed part material much higher than the temperature of the deformed part of the material, thereby increasing the degree of deformation.
Section Cut
The cutting is a pressing process in which the forming process member is divided into several.
Blanking
Blanking is a stamping process that separates the material along a closed contour. The separated material becomes a workpiece or process piece, most of which is planar.
Fine punch
Fine punching is a kind of smooth punching. It uses the fine die with toothed pressure plate to make the whole section of the punching piece completely or almost completely clean.
Restriking
Restriking is a stamping process that relies on the flow of material and changes the shape and size of the process piece to ensure the accuracy of the workpiece.
Hole Flanging
The hole flanging is a stamping process that turns the material around the inner hole into a side flange.
Flanging
The cuff is a stamping process that turns the material around the profile curve into a side short edge.
