Detailed Explanation Of Sheet Metal Processing

1. Cutting: refers to the process of obtaining rectangular workpieces from materials through a shearing machine.
2. Cutting: Refers to the process of a workpiece being cut by a laser or punched by a CNC punching machine.
3. Material dropping: refers to the process of using molds to process the shape of products on ordinary punching machines or other equipment.
4. Punching: refers to the process of machining holes in workpieces using ordinary punching machines and molds.
5. Bending: refers to the process in which a workpiece is formed by a bending machine.
6. Forming: refers to the process of using molds on ordinary punching machines or other equipment to deform workpieces.
7. Punching: also known as "flanging", refers to the process of using a mold on a regular punch press or other equipment to form a circular hole edge on a workpiece and flip it up.
8. Tapping: refers to the process of machining internal threads on a workpiece.
9. Hole enlargement: refers to the process of machining small holes on a workpiece into large holes using a drill or milling cutter.
10. Countersunk hole: refers to the process of machining a hole with a taper on a workpiece to match a connector similar to a countersunk screw.
11. Riveting: refers to the process of firmly crimping fasteners such as rivet nuts, rivet screws, or rivet nut columns onto workpieces using punch presses or hydraulic presses
12. Riveting: refers to the process of first sinking a hole in the workpiece, and then using a punch press or hydraulic press to firmly press the rivet nut onto the workpiece.
13. Pulling nut: refers to using a process similar to riveting.
14. Riveting: refers to the process of using a riveting gun as a tool to tightly connect two or more workpieces together with rivets.
15. Riveting: The process of connecting two or more workpieces face to face using rivets. If countersunk riveting is used, the workpieces need to be countersunked first.
