Release time:2025-04-25 16:57:02

Sheet metal processing is a metal processing technology that mainly involves cutting, bending, stamping and other processing techniques on metal sheets to manufacture various metal products. Sheet metal processing is widely used in furniture, electronics, communication, construction, automotive, machinery, chemical and other fields.

The main process flow of sheet metal processing includes the following steps:

1. Material preparation: Select suitable metal sheets according to design requirements, and perform cutting, polishing, cleaning, and other treatments.

2. Programming design: Convert design drawings into machine recognizable programs, and use computers for programming design.

3. Processing technology: According to programming design, the processing technology is carried out through equipment such as CNC punching machines, CNC bending machines, CNC shearing machines, etc., to complete cutting, bending, stamping and other processes.

4. Surface treatment: Through surface treatment processes such as spraying, electroplating, and heat treatment, the surface of sheet metal products has good corrosion resistance and aesthetics.

5. Quality inspection: Conduct quality inspection on the processed sheet metal products, including dimensions, surface quality, mechanical properties, and other aspects.

6. Assembly and installation: Assemble and install sheet metal products to become the final product.

Sheet metal processing has the advantages of high processing accuracy, high production efficiency, and low processing costs, therefore it has been widely applied and promoted in modern manufacturing industry.
