Presses for progressive dies
Presses for progressive dies are used for production of medium to smaller size sheet metal (semi)products. The technological requirements for part production is mainly assigned “by the part itself” and progressive die installed in the press.
Presses for progressive dies are designed to be very stabile and firm. The slide is well adjusted, guided on 8 points, reinforced and balanced to give extra stability and support to the progressive die installed. With that the straightness and vertical parallelism is achieved. All conditions for producing even the most challenging parts are obtained.
Presses for progressive die (also known as progressive stamping tool) are certainly to be additionally equipped with decoiler, and feeder, sometimes also with straightener.
PROGRESSIVE DIE METHOD AND PRODUCTION
The method of progressive die (tool) is based on production of the part being progressively deformed from stage to stage in the progressive die. Throughout this process the part is pushed through the progressive die by the feeder. Progressive die production method and process is similar to production method used in presses for transfers and transfer dies with exception, that in progressive die, the part is separated from the coil in the final stage of (semi)part deformation. The coil is pushed through the die, being controllably deformed step by step by the die. Throughout this process the coil is step by step becoming the part being produced.
