Selecting the right lubricant for aluminum stamping will help ensure maximum performance in the press, as well as compatibility with the aluminum alloy at hand, and
At a glance: specialty lubricants for metal working. Minimal residue formation on tools or parts: Prevents impairment of downstream processes. Reduced tool and die wear:
A lubricant compound can be used as a paste or as a liquid after being diluted with water, depending on the required concentration and the severity of the drawing operation. Methods for applying lubricant to sheet metal include dips, swabs, brushes, wipers, rollers, or
Selecting the right lubricant for aluminum stamping will help ensure maximum performance in the press, as well as compatibility with the aluminum alloy at hand, and ease post-processing work such as
Excessive blank holder pressure forces the aluminum to stretch. Use just enough pressure to keep the aluminum from wrinkling, or use stand-offs to control the gap between the die face and the blank holder surface. Use a proper lubricant for aluminum—lubricants that work well for steel most likely won\'t work well for
Lubrication: Apply appropriate lubrication to the metal sheet and tooling to minimize friction and prevent surface defects. Process Control : Monitor and control the stretching process to ensure consistent results and
Hot and warm forming of aluminum. FUCHS offers a range of products to improve results in metal stamping, from press-applied heavy-duty lubricants for components stamping to sheet and coil processing pre-lubes, corrosion inhibitors, and blankwashes for automotive BIW and
Stretching aluminum around tight radii requires the use of a lubricant that can provide a consistent film barrier and reduce friction. High-strength material demands a lubricant that provides the required film strength under increased pressure and
Selecting the right lubricant for aluminum stamping will help ensure maximum performance in the press, as well as compatibility with the aluminum alloy at hand, and ease post-processing work such as
At a glance: specialty lubricants for metal working. Minimal residue formation on tools or parts: Prevents impairment of downstream processes. Reduced tool and die wear: Reduced tooling costs, maintenance costs and downtime. Precisely matched to each metal working process for optimum
Metal-forming processes utilize some of the widest varieties of lubricants due to the varying characteristics of metal-working applications. The key functions of metal-forming lubricants include lubricity, cooling, scrap-metal removal and protection against
Using hot-melt lubricants, which provide substantial boundary lubrication on aluminum when compared to conventional oil- and water-based lubricants, has allowed automotive OEMs to replace many steel components with lighter aluminum components, including aluminum closures and body panels now found on several luxury
