Classification and design points of stamping mold parts

Stamping die parts usually refer to the components that make up a stamping die, which work together to achieve the blanking, forming, stretching and other processing of sheet metal. The design and manufacture of stamping dies play a vital role in improving production efficiency and ensuring product quality.
Classification of stamping die parts
Working parts:
Dies: parts that are in direct contact with the workpiece and carry out stamping processing, such as punches, concave molds, and so on.
Guide plate: the part used to guide the die to enter the concave die correctly, to ensure the accuracy of the stamping process.
Positioning parts:
GUIDE POSTS: Parts that ensure the accurate alignment of the die when it is closed.
Spring: elastic part that helps to reset the die part when the die is opened.
Structural Parts:
UPPER TEMPLATE: Fixed to the ram of the press and used in conjunction with the lower template.
Lower template: mounted on the table of the stamping press, cooperating with the upper template, constituting the main part of the stamping die.
Auxiliary parts:
Limit block: a part that limits the closing height of the die to protect the die from excessive compression.
Air vent: used to discharge the air inside the mold during the stamping process to reduce the stamping pressure.

Stamping mold parts design points
Precision requirements: the design of stamping die parts must meet the requirements of high precision to ensure that the size and shape of the stamped parts meet the design requirements.
Durability: the die parts should be made of wear-resistant materials and properly heat-treated to improve their wear resistance and impact resistance and prolong the service life of the die.
Ease of maintenance: mold design should facilitate routine maintenance and repair to reduce downtime.
Safety: The design of the mold should take into account the safety of the operator to avoid accidents during operation.

Application of stamping molds
Stamping dies are widely used in automobile, home appliance, electronics, aviation and other industries for producing various metal parts. For example, the covering parts of automobile body, engine parts, metal shells of home appliances, etc. can be efficiently and massively produced by stamping molds.
