What is a progressive stamping die?
It is also referred to as a follow-on tool. As the name suggests, it is used to perform multiple operations in succession. With each stroke of the press, the strip advances a step. The part to be produced is achieved step by step.
On this basis, several conclusions can immediately be drawn:
- One of the main challenges of progressive cutting is to guide the strip of material precisely. The aim is to ensure that it is correctly positioned for each operation according to the final part to be achieved.
- A press with a strip feeder that can be adjusted and disengaged according to the position of the press ram is essential.
- The part to be produced must be held in place in the strip until the final operation.
- Before starting production, the setter must “carry out a progression”. The material strip to be cut must successfully pass through all the stages (work positions) of the progressive stamping die. Only a conscientious and adequately trained person is capable of bringing this operation to a successful conclusion.
- Once this progression has been carried out, a part will be produced with each stroke of the press.
