Cutting Action in Punch and Die Operations
Cutting action progression when blanking and piercing metal
The punch contacts the work material supported by the die and a pressure buildup occurs. When the elastic limit of the work material is exceeded, the material begins to flow plastically (plastic deformation). The punch penetrates the work material, and the blank, or slug, is displaced into the die opening a corresponding amount. A radius is formed on the top edge of the hole and the bottom edge of the slug, or blank, as shown in Fig.

Cutting Action in Punch and Die Operations
Characteristic appearance of edges of parts produced by piercing and blanking
Fig. Shows the characteristic appearance of the edges of parts produced by blanking and piercing operations in detail. The edge radius (or rollover) is produced during the initial stage of plastic deformation. The edge radius is more pronounced with soft materials.

Die-cutting Operations
Die Clearance Clearance is defined as the intentional
space between the punch cutting edge and die
cutting edge. Clearance is always expressed as
the amount of clearance per side. Theoretically,
clearance is necessary to allow the fractures to
meet when break occurs. The amount of
clearance depends upon the kind, thickness and
hardness of the work material.

Die-cutting Operations
Angular Clearance
A small amount of draft is provided
below the die opening to prevent blanked
parts or slugs from stacking inside the entire
width of the die wall. The draft is commonly
referred to as angular clearance and is
expressed in degrees per side.
![Page 16: 3 Die Cutting](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022082205/563db987550346aa9a9e343a/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Die-cutting Operations
The use of angular clearance
Angular clearance is necessary to prevent backpressure caused by blank or slug buildup especially when the punches or die block are fragile. Recommended angular clearance varies from ¼ to 2 per side, depending upon the material and the shape of the work piece. Soft materials and heavy-gage materials require greater angular clearance. Larger angular clearance may be necessary for small and fragile punches.

Cutting Force
Use of formula
The cutting force formula is
F = Spt
where F = cutting forceS = shear strength of stock materialp = perimeter or length of cutting edget = thickness of material
EXAMPLE: A 5 cm. square hole is to be pierced in mild steel, which is 0.15 cm. thick.SolutionS = 3.875 tons / cm.2 (for for M. S. from Table)p = 5 + 5 + 5 + 5 = 20 cm.t = 0.15 cm.ThenF = SptF = 3.875 x 20 x 0.15 = 11.625 tons

Stripping Force
Use of formula
The stripping force formula isLst = K x Awhere Lst = Stripping force in Kgs.K = Stripping constant in kgs./cm2A = Area of cut surface in cm.2By experimentK = 105 for sheet metal < 0.16 cm.K = 148 for sheet metal > 0.16 cm.
EXAMPLE: A 5 cm. square hole is to be pierced in mild steel, which is 0.15 cm. thick.
Solutionp = 5 + 5 + 5 + 5 = 20 cm.t = 0.15 cm.Then A = 20 x 0.15 = 3.0 cm.2
Lst = K x A Lst = 105 x 3.0 = 315 kgs.

When selecting and ordering die sets, the die area can be determined by use of full-size templates obtainable from the manufacturer and marked to correspond with the catalog number. When ordering, the following information must be specified:1) Quantity and catalog number2) Type and length of bushing3) Overall length and type of guide pins, based on shut height and length of stroke4) Diameter of shank or no shank5) Thickness combinations if other than those listed in the catalog (special thicknesses generally furnished at extra cost).

Types of Die Construction
Single Station Dies
Each single station die performs one operation and a set of dies for a lamination can be mounted in one press or different presses. Simple laminations usually are produced in one operation. More complex parts may require several operations. Fig. shows a typical sequence for the production of stator & rotor laminations in four operations. These are
1.Stock blanked & pierced,
2.Stator lamination notched,
3.Rotor lamination separated from stator lamination and
4.Rotor lamination notched.
Sequence of operations

Progressive dies perform two or more operations at different stages every time the ram descends. The stock strip is advanced through a series of stations that perform one or more distinct die operations on the work piece. The strip must move from the first through each succeeding station to produce a complete work piece. Thereafter a complete work piece is produced with each stroke of the ram
The distance from one station to the next must be the same. The station-to-station distance is also the same as the advance distance. The advance distance, called advance for short, is the distance the strip moves in order to relocate (register) at each successive station.

Transfer dies are used for piercing in applications generally
similar to those for which progressive dies are used. A
number of operations are done in successive stations of the
transfer die. Piercing, blanking, cutoff, lancing, notching,
forming and drawing can be done in transfer dies. The
method differs from progressive die operation in that the
work piece does not remain attached to the strip for feeding,
but is fed from station by transfer by mechanical fingers,
levers or cam. Transfer dies are particularly suited to the
making of parts that would be difficult to connect to the
stock skeleton with carrier tabs.

A compound die differs from a progressive die in that it performs two or more cutting operations during one stroke of the press at one station only. In order to do this, both the upper and lower member of the die set carry punching and blanking elements, which are directly opposed to each other. In other words, the piercing punches act in the opposite direction with respect to the blanking punch. A simple compound die in a closed position is shown in Fig. in the next slide. Note that the blanking punch also serves as the piercing die. The sidewalls adjacent to the cutting edges of the blanking-die opening are straight because the blank does not pass through the die. The blank is return-ejected by the knockout mechanism that is actuated at the return stroke of the press.

A die in which a cutting operation is combined
with a noncutting operation is referred to as a
combination die. The cutting operations may
include blanking, piercing, trimming, and cutoff
and are combined with noncutting operations,
which may include bending, extruding,
embossing, and forming. Fig. in the next slide
shows a typical combination die that draws and
blanks a shell.

A This method of blanking employs a rubber pad in the punch
holder and a punch in the die shoe (See fig.in the next slide). It
operates on the principle that when rubber is compressed, it
transmits the pressure in all directions. The rubber is confined
in a cavity in order to exert full force against the part. This type
of blanking, referred to as the Guerin process, is generally
limited to the blanking of aluminum alloy up to a maximum of 1
mm. thick. The minimum hole diameter or width of cutout is
approximately 50 mm., and at least 38 mm. trim is necessary for
external cuts.

Fine blanking is basically a method of blanking or piercing parts
without die break. This is done by controlling metal flow in the
shearing area. A knife-edge or impingement ring, is pressed into
the metal outside the cutting line and the metal outside this line
is restrained by application of great force. With the metal
virtually unable to move in ward and a punch-to-die clearance
between 0.0075 mm. and zero, a clean smooth-edge cut can be
made regardless of stock thickness. A triple-action hydraulic
press is required to get the holding or gripping action, controlled
punch speed, and counter pressure on the part necessary for
successful fine blanking.
