progressive stamping mold

Product Advantage

This dynamic mould is designed for creating tiny, complex parts in the consumer electronics sector. It is designed to have an effective pattern with a sequence of disposing, bending, and cutting processes, which means highly efficient production and reliable quality. To boot, the mold has a durable design and parts made of wrought that are able to prevent deterioration, which not only provide protection for the mold but also increase its life cycle. It is perfect for making mobile phone parts, USB connectors, and laptop components.

Maximizing Production Efficiency

Progressive molds gain superior efficiency by performing a number of operations in one go - for example, punching, bending, and cutting. It is this fast-track process that not only reduces cycle times to a great degree and thus improves the output of completed products, but it is also very suitable for mass production. The progressive molds carry the material automatically through a series of stations; it is thus not necessary that we move the material manually or use a secondary tool. This leads to more productivity and also product standardization. The combination with automatic feeders and precise alignment minimizes the amount of the rejected material and supports the concept of the lean manufacturer. The tool is ideally suited to high volume, repeatable production with customers enjoying the luxury of time-saving benefits and reduced labor costs.

Precision and Consistency with Progressive Mold Technology

The ability of a progressive mold to consistently produce components with complex geometry and also have the part dimensions maintained without variation is one of its major characteristics. The mold is built up of several stages, which are all made according to designer's project and machined with the highest precision to assure the same tight tolerance for thousands and even millions of parts. The strip feeding system keeps the parts in sync and placed in the same position repeatedly all the way through the process. The tools are made of high-quality materials and can be provided with finishing treatments like nitride or PVD coatings, thereby making the die life cycle and production precision even longer and more accurate, respectively. In these areas e.g., automotive, electronics, and medical, where the precision is everything, such reliability is a sine qua non.

Cost Savings through Material and Labor Efficiency

The use of progressive molds stands as the most essential factor for the company in terms of overall production cost reduction. The basic form of this mold is such that it is developed to use every meter of the material to the full, thus less scrap is to be generated. Moreover, the process of the tool is automatically completed, so you have to operate it by hand which results in the optimization of the labor costs and the elimination of mistakes caused by people. Secondly, there are no various machines or set-ups required in the process as all the functions are performed in a single tool. Besides the cost per part is reduced, thus there is an increase in the output of progressive molds making the companies' choice of achieving maximum profitability without losing quality a wise one in the long run.

Long Service Life and Low Maintenance

Long and reliable services are what these progressive molds are built for if they are regularly maintained. The molds are manufactured with high-quality steels, including SKD11, D2, and tungsten carbide, which tolerate various mechanical pressure ranges over a long time. Along with heat treatment and surface coating, the aforementioned make prolongation of the mold's lifespan virtually an easy matter. Thanks to being modular in design, the tools can be put into pieces interchangeably with each other without removing them, hence making the whole work less costly and having no downtime. Up to a few million cycles, as long as a progressive mold is well-kept, it can be applied without unnecessary causation of the weakness and maintain its standard efficiency, thus eliminating the need for the repair.

Aluminum Progressive Mold for Lightweight Enclosures

This aluminum progressive mold is incredibly good at the production of lightweight housings and enclosures for electronics and LED lighting. The mold can tackle very thin aluminum material of such gauges that range from 0.4mm to 1.5mm. The mold has special punches and dies coated to prevent both galling and oxidation. The whole process of shearing, forming, coining, and final shaping is synchronized by the high-precision guides and punch alignment pins. In addition, progressive mold uses a high-speed automatic feeder and permits adjusting die clearance for different aluminum grades. Utilizing modular insertion, the mold enables users to make quick changes in layouts to support the production of various product configurations. The progressive mold is specially designed for 24/7 mass production, so it is able to ensure the same surface quality and as a result, it decreases the post-processing needs. Its long tool life, efficient scrap management, and compatibility with standard stamping presses make it a very fantastic asset in the consumer electronics, lighting, and appliance industries.

The new forward-looking mold is capable of running two strips at once and hence, it achieves the production rate which is twice as efficient as a conventional one at a single press stroke. The design is characterized by a twin tool-carrying cage within a die set, which makes the metal strips advancing and processing be performed simultaneously and separately. Each station consists of punch sets, and stripper plates which are controlled in a high-precision manner that ensures both station and punch work synchronously. The tool is operator-friendly and performs tasks to user requirements even with very little manual intervention. Anytime the need arises, it is the best answer for equipment of high productivity, notwithstanding the fact that the footprints or the equipment size specifications remain constant. A central lubrication system, an individual scrap chute for each tool, and a set of sensorized die chambers are part of the manufacturing package offered by this mold. The already in-use servo presses are still applicable for the mold and stand to benefit from more options in functionality and speed control. Supported by yes, we had some ideas about what we would like to do with the material. e.g. 3D modeling and flow simulation, it obtained accurate and trouble-free material transportation. The mold also supports the user's intentions to boost production activities without having to spend more on production facilities. This dual-strip progressive mold is realistic and user-friendly. This will not only enhance your production capacity but also provide scope for better returns on the resources invested.
