What are the preparatory work to be done after receiving an order for metal stamping parts?

After receiving the order, many metal stamping factories rushed to open the mold with the drawings. As a result, problems continued to appear before normal production, or the cost of the processed products was too high, and in the end they couldn't make money. It is also easy to lose customers. In fact, before production, we must be rigorous and work out a detailed plan step by step. Only in this way can we avoid various problems in the subsequent processing. In general, the preparation work to be done after receiving an order for metal stamping parts mainly includes the following aspects: 1. Analyze the metal stamping parts drawings. After getting the metal stamping parts drawings given by the customer, we must confirm the quantity and details of the products with the customer as soon as possible. The dimensional tolerance requirements are then determined to determine which process to use. For example, some cylindrical shell stamping parts can be produced by the process of plate rolling and welding when the number of customer needs is relatively small, so as to save the cost of stamping die. When the customer needs a relatively large batch, stamping and drawing processing technology can be used to reduce product costs. After the production process is determined, a reasonable discharging method must be designed to minimize waste. Second, formulate the processing plan of the metal stamping parts After analyzing the drawings of the metal stamping parts, it is necessary to formulate an overall processing plan. Some metal stamping products are not only achievable by the stamping process, but also include other processing technologies, such as: Riveting, welding, drilling, laser cutting, tapping, etc. This requires the order of various processing techniques to be worked out. Third, determine the number and dimensions of the processing procedures. Most stamping parts require multiple procedures to be processed. A reasonable number of procedures must be designed. The reduction in the number of procedures means the reduction of product costs. After determining the number of processing procedures, it is necessary to understand the shape and size of the product after each procedure, and determine the size and shape of the product blank. Fourth, the design of the stamping die When designing the stamping die, we must pay attention to ensuring the operability and safety of the die. The wearing parts are also designed to be detachable, which is convenient for future maintenance. Fifth, choose a suitable punch to calculate the required punching force according to the dimensions and thickness of the metal stamping parts. In addition, it is also necessary to consider that the size of the punch's work surface should meet the size of the product.
