On the rapidly rotating rolling machine, a ball of clay gradually forms a beautiful ceramic product under repeated polishing by potters. In industrial manufacturing, craftsmen can use spinning machines to press a common sheet of metal into important components.
This metal processing method similar to ceramics is called spin forming technology in the industry. It is a processing technology that combines the strengths of hundreds of schools of thought. Different from the “splicing” of welding and the “solidification” of casting, spin forming technology mainly uses a spinning machine to deform the blank.
Before we popularize spin forming technology, let’s first talk about spinning machines. The cnc spinning machine consists of two parts, just like human hands. During processing, the “left hand” rotates the blank, and the “right hand” applies pressure to the blank. Only with the tacit cooperation of the “hands” can the desired parts be obtained.
At the beginning of the spin forming technology, workers used sticks and other tools to pressurize the blanks, and later used hydraulic and steam power to drive the spinning machine equipment. For a long time, this technology went unnamed. It was not until the late 1760s that a German scientist applied for the world’s first metal spinning technology patent, and the technology had its own name.
Today, the constantly updated spin forming technology has become an indispensable processing technology in high-precision fields. In the field of automobile manufacturing, this technology has been widely used in wheel hub manufacturing; in the field of aviation manufacturing, fighter aircraft auxiliary fuel tanks, air intakes, slide rails and other components are made of this technology; in the field of aerospace, rocket casings and aircraft engine nozzle processing are also closely related to The technology is closely related.
Spin forming technology is so important and must have its unique advantages. We summarize them into the following three points:
One is high intensity. Spin forming is an integral forming technology. The processed parts have no busbar welds and maintain the integrity of the blank. Relevant data show that the strength and hardness of the material after spin forming are increased by more than 30% compared with the base material.
Second, the cost is low. Spin forming technology does not require cutting of blanks and has a high material utilization rate; it requires simple forming molds and china metal spinning equipment, which can significantly reduce production costs.
Third, the space utilization rate is high. Compared with parts of the same strength, the parts after spin forming are small in size and light in weight, which can save more space. In addition, this technology can also detect some defects existing in the billet smelting process.
In recent years, the development of spin forming technology has shown a “let a hundred flowers bloom” situation. Some countries have introduced sensing technology, high-precision CNC technology, etc. into the field of spin forming; some countries are trying to create automatic recognition drawings, design plans, optimization “AI spinning” with process parameter capabilities. Looking to the future, spin forming technology has broad application prospects in the military industry, and its development and application are related to the quality of weapons and equipment manufacturing.BE-CU is known for offering the fastest lead-time of samples in 2 ~3 days from blueprint to shipment and excellent customer service as well as producing top quality metal etched parts..Be-Cu provides the highest standard of metal spinning,precision metal etching and more service for all your needs.
