This time, we will focus on stamping processes and explain a simple method for selecting materials suitable for stamping for designers.

Rational material selection enables the design of products that are easy to manufacture, leading to reduced costs due to fewer processes, improved productivity during mass production, and enhanced reliability and durability of the products. Designs with high forming difficulty will increase material and processing costs. Indicators of material properties for evaluating materials suitable for stamping include tensile strength, yield strength, elongation, hardness, Erichsen value, limiting drawing ratio, and conical cup value. However, two specific characteristic values that can directly evaluate formability are as follows: 1. The n-value representing work hardening characteristics 2. The r-value (Rankford value) representing anisotropy The n-value and r-value are characteristic values that directly relate to the quality of actual stamping processes, and this evaluation allows for the selection of appropriate materials. *For more details, please download the PDF or contact us.*

This document explains the key points of material selection.

In the process of spring design, once the stress level of the required material is determined, it is necessary to select a material that possesses those characteristics, and an understanding of the properties of the material is crucial.

This is a collection of examples of drawing processes manufactured with progressive drawing dies using automatic press processing! Shall we solve your problems with drawing processes together?

A drawing die refers to a type of mold used in a processing method that creates various shapes of bottomed containers, such as cylinders, rectangular tubes, and cones, from a single thin sheet of metal. A characteristic feature of the formed products is that they have no seams. It is said to be the highest level of press processing. We would like to introduce a case study using our progressive die that has actually solved customer problems! Our products are primarily made using automatic press processing, ensuring stable quality, cost performance, and short delivery times, allowing us to meet customer demands. Please feel free to download it.

The "Mechanical Stitching Method" by Nichinichisui Road Machinery Co., Ltd. is a new technique that allows for the repair of metal cracks without the application of heat. By using special bolts and reinforcement plates, cracks are physically removed without causing any thermal impact on the base material. Repairs can be made even in environments where open flames cannot be used. Since no heat is applied, the disassembly of equipment is minimized. ◎ For more details, please contact us. ◎ If a detailed technical explanation is needed, please contact us.

What is an Air Leak Tester? An "Air Leak Tester" is a device that pressurizes the inside (or outside) of a sealed workpiece with air and determines the presence of leaks based on pressure changes. When a master with no leaks and a workpiece with leaks are pressurized, the pressure on the workpiece side decreases, creating a pressure difference between the two. By measuring this pressure difference, the presence of leaks can be determined. Generally, differential pressure air leak testing is widely used, but Fukuda also offers products that utilize direct pressure leak testing and flow meters according to the leak rate, in addition to differential pressure leak testers. Since the air leak tester uses air as the measurement medium, it incurs no running costs and is environmentally friendly.
