Deep Drawn Pressings -

Looking for a supplier? Always ask potential vendors for their "drawability ratio" (blank diameter / punch diameter). A ratio above 2.5 usually requires multiple draws.

Deep drawing creates a part from a single piece of metal. There are no welds, seams, or joints. This makes the part watertight, airtight, and structurally sound under high pressure. deep drawn pressings

As the metal is bent and stretched, it undergoes "work hardening." The walls of a deep drawn part become stronger than the original sheet metal. You get a part that is lightweight but incredibly rigid. Looking for a supplier

Let’s pull back the curtain on the fascinating world of deep drawn pressings. In simple terms, deep drawing is a sheet metal forming process. A flat "blank" of metal is placed over a die. A punch pushes the metal into the die cavity, forcing the flat sheet to take on a three-dimensional shape. Deep drawing creates a part from a single piece of metal

A deep draw press can produce 30 to 60 parts per minute. Once the tooling is paid for, the unit cost drops to pennies. Compare that to a CNC machine taking 15 minutes per part.

We live in a world obsessed with 3D printing and CNC machining. But when you need to produce 50,000 identical, seamless, incredibly strong metal enclosures at lightning speed, nothing beats a punch press and a die.

Next time you wash dishes in a stainless steel sink or start your car, take a moment to appreciate that seamless, curved bowl. It wasn't welded, cast, or printed. It was drawn.
