Coining sheet metal.
Special coining presses or knuckle presses are often used.
Coining dies create the part s shape by squeezing the metal under extreme pressure.
A beneficial feature is that in some metals the plastic flow reduces surface grain size and work hardens the surface while the material deeper in the part retains its toughness and ductility.
Coins metal currency are created with the coining process.
A simple round metal slug is placed into the die and forced to flow into a given shape by compressing it see figure 3.
Hansen steel is an expert in metal forming tube bending cutting and fabrication for various markets throughout california.
Coining in bending gives similarly precise results.
This is a flashless precision forging.
Coining also is a leading producer of gold aluminum and copper bonding wire as well as jumper chips bonding pads tabs heat sinks lead frames solder spheres and cover assemblies for the microelectronics industry.
In coining the sheet metal is more than just bent it is actually thinned by the impact of the punch and die as it is compressed between them along the bending surfaces fig.
One disadvantage is that it takes a great deal of force to coin metal.
We provide a range of metal processing services including tube and steel bending for los angeles california and surrounding areas.
The metal is given the die s exact shape by applying great tonnage.
Coining may be used to control surface quality and detail on parts.
It can produce sharp crisp corners.
Coining derives it name from coins as they have to be identical to make fake money distinguishable from the real one.
Metal coining is a forging process by which very fine and intricate details can be created on the surface of a work piece.
Because coining uses compression to form the part tension failure is unlikely.
Coining fabrication is a basic type of bending in which the workpiece is stamped between the punch and die.
Coining also can reduce the metal thickness.
The term coining comes from the idea that when it comes to money each metal coin is made exactly the same as the last despite being mass produced.
Metal coining is often a finishing process for manufactured products.
And a brilliant surface finish.
Coining has several advantages and disadvantages.
