Manufacturing process for custom stamping dies

The manufacturing process of custom stamping and stretching dies is a complex process involving multiple steps and precision techniques. The following are the main manufacturing processes of custom stamping and drawing dies:

1. Demand analysis and design:

- Communicate with customers to understand the specific requirements and specifications of the product.

- Use CAD (Computer Aided Design) software for mold design, including mold structure, stamping process, stretching steps, etc.

2. Material selection:

- According to the product requirements to choose the appropriate mold material, usually high-speed steel, carbide or die steel, etc..

3. Material pre-treatment:

- Heat treat the mold material to improve its hardness and wear resistance.

- The material is cut and prepared for the next step of processing.

4. machining:

- Rough machining: Use milling machine, lathe and other equipment to carry out preliminary processing of the mold material to form the basic shape and size.

- Finishing: Precision machining using CNC (Computer Numerical Control) machine tools to ensure the size and shape accuracy of the mold.

- Electrical Discharge Machining (EDM): For molds with complex shapes or high precision requirements, EDM technology is used for processing.

5. Assembly:

- Assemble the machined mold parts, including punch dies, concave dies, guides, ejector bars, etc..

- Ensure that all parts can be accurately matched and move smoothly after assembly.

6. Commissioning:

- After the mold assembly is completed, conduct a trial mold to check the stamping and stretching effect of the mold.

- Make necessary adjustments according to the results of the trial mold to optimize the performance of the mold.

7. Heat treatment and surface treatment:

- Perform final heat treatment on the die to optimize its mechanical properties.

- Perform surface treatment, such as chrome plating, nitriding, oxidation, etc., to improve the wear resistance of the mold and extend its service life.

8. Inspection:

- Conduct a comprehensive inspection of the size, shape and surface quality of the mold to ensure compliance with the design requirements.

9. Delivery:

- After the mold passes the inspection, it will be packed and delivered to the customer.

Throughout the manufacturing process, precision control, material selection, heat treatment and surface treatment are the key links, which directly affect the quality and service life of the mold. The manufacturing of customized stamping and stretching dies requires a high degree of professional knowledge and rich practical experience.
