إن Blanking Force Calculator estimates the force required to punch or blank sheet metal based on the material’s shear strength, thickness, and total cutting perimeter. Enter your production details to get an estimated force in kN and metric tons-force, helping you plan press capacity and tooling requirements. Actual force may vary with material grade, tool clearance, cutting geometry, and machine setup, so confirm the result with your equipment manufacturer.

Blanking / Punching Inputs

Total length of all edges sheared in one stroke: outer contour plus every hole punched at the same time. Example: a Ø20 mm hole = π × 20 ≈ 62.83 mm.

Must be 1 or greater. Default 1.2. Leave blank to skip the design force.
