Most of the terminals available in the market are made using conventional stamping processes. When metal is punched using this method, the cut surface becomes jagged, especially when the material is thick. By using fine blanking to punch, it is possible to achieve a smooth cutting surface without secondary processing such as machining, resulting in no fracture surface. The ability to finish the contact surface smoothly contributes to the suppression of fretting corrosion and the stabilization of contact resistance values. Improving surface finish quality through fine blanking reduces the risk of uneven plating density and pinhole formation in the plating process, which is the most critical final step for terminals, thereby helping to prevent contact failures.

Our "Fine Blanking" technology provides optimal press processing for the manufacture of surgical medical instruments. It enables mass production of materials and components that require precision, as well as advanced medical technologies. By utilizing three forces: "the force that restrains the material," "the force that maintains the shape of the component," and "the force that punches the shape of the component," we can achieve a smooth shearing surface without fractures or chipping, as well as good flatness. 【Features】 ■ Enables mass production with advanced medical technology ■ Three forces act on the workpiece ■ Achieves a smooth shearing surface without fractures or chipping, and good flatness ■ Used in various surgical medical instruments such as scalpels, forceps, and scissors *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.
