Heat Treatment Jigs - Large Sheet Metal Manufacturing Technology
Advantages of Manufacturing Sheet Metal Technology
Manufacturing sheet metal technology provides flexibility in producing a wide variety of shapes and sizes, particularly beneficial for large sheet metal applications. This technology enables the creation of high-precision and high-strength trays and baskets. The welding technique allows for the integration of complex shapes, enhancing design freedom. Manufacturing sheet metal technology performs excellently in heat treatment processes, improving product durability and reliability. It is also adaptable to custom specifications.
Types of Manufacturing Sheet Metal Technology
- Welding Techniques:
- MIG Welding (Metal Inert Gas Welding): High productivity, suitable for thick plates and large structures.
- Arc Welding: Uses an electric arc to join metals, suitable for various materials.
- Sheet Metal Processing Techniques:
- Laser Cutting: Enables high-precision cutting, efficiently processing complex-shaped parts, especially large sheet metal.
- Bending: Forms large sheet metal into desired shapes, used in frame creation for trays and baskets.
- Assembly Techniques:
- Rivet Assembly: Fixes parts using rivets, providing strong joints.
- Bolt Fastening: Uses bolts and nuts for assembly, allowing easy disassembly and reassembly.
Characteristics of Materials Used
- SUS-304:
- Characteristics: High corrosion resistance, excellent formability, and weldability. The most common stainless steel, used for a wide range of applications.
- SUS-310S:
- Characteristics: Excellent high-temperature strength and oxidation resistance. Higher chromium and nickel content than SUS-304, suitable for high-temperature use.
- Inconel 601:
- Characteristics: A nickel-based alloy with excellent heat resistance, oxidation resistance, and corrosion resistance. Exceptional mechanical properties at high temperatures, durable in chemically harsh environments.
Heat Treatment Furnaces Using Manufacturing Sheet Metal Technology
Large sheet metal products fabricated with manufacturing sheet metal technology are used in various heat treatment furnaces, such as:
