Sheet metal process in general the basic equipment including shearing machine (Shear Machine), CNC punching machine (CNC Punching Machine) / laser, plasma, water jet cutting machine (Cutting Machine), bending machine (Bending Machine), drilling machine and a variety of auxiliary equipment, such as: uncoiler, levelling machine, deburring machine, spot welding machine and so on. machine, spot welding machine, etc.

In general, the four most important steps in the sheet metal process are shearing, punching/cutting/folding/coiling, welding, and surface treatment.

Sheet metal is sometimes also used as wrenching, the word comes from the English platemetal, generally some sheet metal by hand or mould stamping to make plastic deformation, forming the desired shape and size, and can be further welded or a small amount of machining to form more complex parts, such as chimneys commonly used in the home, tin stove, and car shell are sheet metal parts.

Sheet metal processing is called sheet metal processing. Specific such as the use of sheet metal to make chimneys, iron barrels, oil tanks, oil pots, ventilation pipes, elbow size head, the sky and the earth, funnel-shaped, etc., the main process is to shear, bending and buckling, bending, welding, riveting, and so on, need to be certain geometric knowledge.

Sheet metal parts is sheet metal parts, that is, through stamping, bending, stretching and other means to process the parts, a general definition is -

in the process of processing the thickness of the parts do not change. Corresponding to the casting parts, forging parts, machining parts, such as the outside of the car shell is sheet metal parts, stainless steel to do some of the cabinet is also sheet metal parts.

Modern sheet metal processes include: is a filament power winding, laser cutting, heavy-duty machining, metal bonding, metal drawing, plasma cutting, precision welding, roll forming, sheet metal bending forming, die forging, water jet cutting, precision welding and so on.

The surface treatment of sheet metal parts is also a very important part of the sheet metal processing process, as it has the effect of preventing the parts from rusting and beautifying the appearance of the products. The role of pre-treatment of the surface of sheet metal parts is mainly to remove oil, oxide, rust, etc., which prepares the surface for post-processing, which is mainly spraying (baking) paint, plastic spraying and plating of anti-rust layer.

3D software, SolidWorks, UG, Pro/E, SolidEdge, TopSolid, CATIA, etc. have a sheet metal parts, mainly through the editing of 3D graphics and get the data required for sheet metal parts processing (such as unfolding diagrams, bending lines, etc.) as well as for the numerically controlled punching machine (CNC Punching Machine)/laser, plasma, water jet cutting machine (LASER), water jet cutting machine (LASER), water jet cutting machine (LASER), and water jet cutting machine (LASER). It also provides data for CNC Punching Machine, Laser, Plasma, Waterjet Cutting Machine, Combination Machine and CNC Bending Machine.
