Design Criteria of Sheet Metal Structure

 According to the problems encountered in the actual machining process, the problems needing attention in the structural design of sheet metal  are discussed from the following aspects, and the corresponding design criteria are given.

Selection Criteria of Sheet Metal Materials

Sheet metal is generally used for the installation of equipment shell and electrical circuit, so it is very important for the selection of sheet metal. Proper selection is not only conducive to processing, but also can reduce the cost on the premise of ensuring the strength.

(1) In order to ensure the material utilization rate and the minimum number of die changes in bending, the thickness specifications of plates on the same structure shall not exceed three at most. For structures with high strength requirements, the method of pressing reinforcement on thin plates can be adopted;

(2) It should be avoided that the unfolding size of parts is equal to the outline size of raw materials: the shape of plates supplied in the market is not square. If the unfolding size is equal to or very close to the outline, there is no allowance for the whole square, and the product size after direct processing has errors, which will affect the installation and use.

(3) For non-sprayed plates with decorative surface requirements, the decorative surface and grain direction shall be considered in combination with the plate materials. For any purpose, the plate with decorative surface shall be used and the grain direction shall be required. For non-exposed parts, the processing process shall be protected from scratch, and the welding joints shall be treated after welding. The processing volume is large. Therefore, in order to ensure the utilization rate of materials and reduce unnecessary processing, The direction of decorative surface or other materials without decorative surface can be ignored.

Design Criteria for Hole Structure

For the design of holes, in addition to meeting the product requirements, they shall meet the requirements of easy processing or not affecting the subsequent process and beauty after processing.

(1) Try to avoid opening the square hole to the bending root: the stretching of the plate after bending will lead to hole deformation. If the hole is made manually, it will increase the processing difficulty.

(2) The processing method of screw hole can be realized by different methods: direct tapping on plate; Flanging tapping; Riveted nut; Spot welding of nuts and other methods, specific different sheet thickness and screw hole size should be different methods. The structural design of sheet metal equipment is closely related to the production process. With the improvement of the automation of sheet metal equipment, we need to constantly understand and contact new sheet metal knowledge, which provides a guarantee for better processing technology of designed parts in the future. In order to ensure the quality of the products and improve the competitiveness of the enterprise in the industry, the processing cost can be reduced as much as possible. Click here to contact JIATONG

Four Basic Cold Processing Links to Optimize Sheet Metal Design

  Generally, sheet metal parts have obvious advantages in strength, weight and cost, and have better point-to-point performance than traditional parts. Therefore, up to now, sheet metal parts have been gradually applied in China’s high-tech fields such as electronics and communication. At the same time, people have gradually put forward higher requirements for the quality and function of sheet metal parts, The proper optimization of the original sheet metal processing technology has become the focus of sheet metal processing personnel. According to the actual research, this paper believes that the optimization of processing technology should be carried out one by one from the application of four basic cold processing links of sheet metal processing. 1  Blanking    First of all, as far as the blanking link is concerned, generally speaking, blanking refers to the separation of sheet metal materials through the stamping of the die, so as to realize the separation of she...

Semi-automatic Sheet Metal Production Line

  At this stage, most of the production in the chassis and cabinet industry uses single machine production, including laser cutting machine, plasma cutting machine, plate shears, CNC punching, bending machine, oil press, riveting machine, argon arc welding machine, electric welding machine, laser welding, surface treatment equipment, etc. these equipment require a lot of labor and have low production efficiency. With the increasing labor costs and the increasingly standardized safety protection regulations, the chassis and cabinet industry urgently needs to change the current situation.    Intelligent storage warehouse of sheet metal + automatic feeding + laser cutting machine + automatic cutting and automatic dividing. The other side of the warehouse can be punched by numerical control. It is best to use laser compound punching (manual cutting), automatic grinding, bending machining center (bending by robot), and another numerical control bending machine is equipped, fol...
