Streamline your fastener production with our professional technical documentation for a Progressive Die to Produce Manufacturing Clips (Mfgclip). Clips used in the automotive and appliance industries often require a sophisticated sequence of shearing, lancing, and multi-stage bending to achieve their final spring-tension geometry. This drawing package details a multi-station tool designed to transform a flat metal strip into a finished, complex clip with every stroke of the press. By utilizing precision-timed “side-action” cams and specialized bending mandrels, this die ensures that critical dimensions—such as gap width and tensioning angles—remain consistent over millions of parts.

The provided чертеж package offers an exhaustive look at the strip progression (pitch) and the pilot-hole alignment system necessary for high-speed feeding. By analyzing the “over-bending” calculations detailed in these blueprints, engineers can account for material springback, ensuring the clip achieves its exact design specifications after it leaves the tool. We provide these high-fidelity CAD resources for free to help tool and die designers minimize the “try-out” phase and move directly into profitable, high-volume manufacturing.

Our files are formatted for seamless integration into 3D engineering and simulation software. This allows your team to perform “Forming Limit Diagrams” (FLD) to identify potential thinning or tearing in high-stress bend radii. This data-driven approach is essential for optimizing the life of the hardened tool steel inserts (D2 or Vanadis 23) used in the cutting and forming stations. Download this essential resource today to master the intricate physics of clip manufacturing.

Ключевые особенности:

  • Multi-Stage Bending Sequence: Engineered to distribute complex bends across several stations to reduce material stress and improve accuracy.
  • Integrated Lancing & Forming: Specialized stations designed to create “locking tabs” or “barbs” common in manufacturing clips.
  • High-Precision Pilot System: Features hardened pilot pins to ensure sub-micron strip positioning, critical for the accuracy of subsequent bending stages.
  • Springback Compensation Design: Optimized tool geometry designed to counteract the elastic recovery of spring steel and high-tensile alloys.
  • Modular Insert Architecture: Detailed schematics for “quick-change” inserts, allowing for easy maintenance of high-wear cutting edges without removing the entire die.
