In recent years, the domestic stainless steel hardware tool processing industry has actively combined stainless steel products with environmental protection, energy resources and human environment, making the international market demand for domestic stainless steel hardware products growing day by day, making the domestic stainless steel hardware tool processing industry the main force in the world hardware tool industry. The quality, packaging and supply of stainless steel hardware products, as well as the R&D and extended production process of stainless steel hardware tools have been praised internationally. The development advantages of domestic stainless steel hardware tools make the production center of international stainless steel hardware multinational companies move to China, providing a market basis for domestic stainless steel hardware tools to carry out international market.
Hardware is often used in processing and manufacturing industry. In the traditional processing industry in the past, the processing method of die punch was mainly used to process hardware. Open the mold according to the shape required by the customer, install the mold on the punch, and use the large punching force to shape the workpiece at one time. This method is applicable to the production of large quantities of hardware, with fast speed and one shot molding. Of course, this processing method also has shortcomings. For example, there are a lot of burrs in the punched workpieces. For another example, mold manufacturing and mold maintenance cost a certain amount of cost and development cycle.
With the development of laser technology, hardware has been widely processed by laser cutting. The laser cutting machine is used to process the hardware, which avoids the cost of the mold and effectively improves the cutting quality. The shape and size of the workpiece to be cut can be drawn by CAD, written into the equipment program, and the shape of the workpiece can be quickly cut.
Compared with laser cutting, punch machining also has advantages and disadvantages. The advantage is that the punch is not limited by the mold. One punch can install multiple sets of molds, and the speed of one punch and one molding is also very fast. Disadvantages: the punch is greatly restricted by its shape, breadth, material and thickness. Therefore, it has great advantages to use punch to process workpieces and metal sheets with simple shapes.
Because of the characteristics of laser cutting machine, such as fast cutting speed, large capacity, short production cycle, good cutting quality, no deformation, no mold opening, no tool wear, labor cost saving, no shape constraints, high automation, and applicable to all metal materials cutting, the laser cutting method is called a technological revolution in sheet metal processing in the industry, and is widely recognized by the sheet metal processing industry. At present, metal plates are as thin as 1mm and as thick as more than 50mm, and metal laser cutting is widely used. At the same time, metal laser cutting machines are also developing towards high power, which means that the future metal laser cutting field will be more able to accept thick metal processing and metal laser processing at a higher speed.
