Industrial punch press is a widely used mechanical equipment in the field of metal processing.The following is a detailed introduction to it:
1. Definition and Types
Definition:Punching press,also known as stamping machine,is a mechanical equipment that uses power to drive and molds metal sheets and other materials for stamping,shearing,bending and other processing operations.
Type:For small metal punched parts,bent parts,or shallow drawn parts,it is usually recommended to use an open punch press.The open punch press has three open sides,making it easy to operate and install molds,feeders,and automatic mold changing devices for automated production.It is also cost-effective.
2. Working principle
The design principle of a punch press is to convert circular motion into linear motion,which is driven by the main electric motor to drive the flywheel.The clutch then drives the gears,crankshaft(or differential gear),connecting rod,and other components to achieve linear motion of the slider.Punching machines apply pressure to processed materials to shape and deform them,achieving the required shape and accuracy.In this process,a set of molds(divided into upper and lower molds)is needed to place the material between them,and the machine applies pressure to deform it.The reaction force formed by the force applied to the material during processing is absorbed by the punching machine body,thereby causing the punching machine to move and process the parts.
3. Application Fields
Punching machines have a wide range of applications in multiple industrial fields,including but not limited to:
Automobile manufacturing:Punching machines play an important role in the automobile manufacturing process,such as stamping and forming body coverings,shearing and bending chassis parts,etc.
Aerospace:The aerospace industry requires extremely high precision and strength for metal parts,and punching machines can meet these requirements for processing structural components of aircraft,rockets,and other spacecraft.
Electronic appliances:In the field of electronic appliances,punching machines are used to process various metal shells,connecting pieces,and other components to ensure the beauty and durability of products.
Other fields:In addition,punch presses are widely used in construction,transportation,medical and other fields,providing strong support for metal processing in these areas.
