What is deep drawing?
Deep drawing is a manufacturing process in which a sheet of metal is forced into a mold. It stretches the material into its final shape. Its main advantage is the ability to create complex shapes quickly and efficiently. This type of stamping can be an ideal choice because it can accommodate almost any design constraints, and deep-drawn parts are more durable than stamped parts.
Deep drawing manufacturing process
Design and make a mold, which is used to process the sheet into the desired concave and convex shape.
Cut the metal plate to the appropriate size and place it into the mold. Metal sheets are often skin-cut to improve deformation properties during the drawing process.
During the deep drawing process, the metal sheet needs to be processed by a machine according to the shape of the mold.
Check if the processed parts meet the design requirements, and repair or re-make the parts that do not meet the requirements.
Advantages of Deep Drawing
Mass production
Deep drawing can produce large quantities of high-quality parts quickly and efficiently. This makes it an attractive option for businesses that need to create many products in a short period of time.
Easy to use
The deep drawing process is relatively simple. This type of stamping doesn’t require the same expertise as other methods, so it’s relatively easy for your employees to learn how to operate the machine.
Accommodates complex designs
Deep drawing makes it easy to create complex parts without design constraints. This makes it a good option for businesses that need unique or custom metal parts without spending extra money on design fees.
Cost Efficiency
It can significantly reduce production costs, highly automate shape production, and improve production efficiency.
