Let’s Talk About the different types of Extrusion Process

Image
  What do you mean by extrusion process?   Extrusion process   is a process where a material undergoes plastic deformation by the application of a force causing that material to flow through an orifice or die.   The material adopts the cross-sectional profile of the die and if the material has suitable properties, that shape is retained in the final extrudate.   This process is similar to the drawing process except the drawing process uses tensile stress to extend the metal work piece. The compressive force allows large deformation compared to drawing in a single pass.     The process can be done in either hot or cold when better properties are required. Extrusion processes in metals may increase the strength of the material.   Types of extrusion processes  :   1. Cold extrusion 2. Hot extrusion 3. Forward and direct extrusion 4. Backward and indirect extrusion   Let’s have a deep insight into all these types.   Different type of Extrusion Process 1.  Cold extrusion   Cold extrusion is

Let’s Talk About Different Types of Punches

Image
  What are punches?   A punch is a tool used to indent or create a hole through a hard surface. They usually consist of a hard metal rod with a narrow tip at one end and a broad flat "butt" at the other.   When used, the narrower end is pointed against a target surface and the broad end is then struck with a hammer or mallet, causing the blunt force of the blow to be transmitted down the rod body and focused more sharply onto a small area.   These punches are widely used in the manufacturing industry. They are part of almost all manufacturing processes. Depending on the shape and type of punches, they are used in different manufacturing processes.   Let’s talk about different types of punches  in manufacturing.    Different types of punches in manufacturing   1.  Cutting punches in manufacturing process   The edges of the cutting punches are very sharp. They penetrate the stock material & push out the blank / slug and enter into the die. The design of the cutting punches
