定制钛合金冲压的优质模具如何对抗模具磨损和材料加工过程中的磨损？

定制钛冲压采用专门的高端模具，不仅必须处理金属成形，而且还要应对钛的原子级化学反应性。钛原子很容易对钢表现出强烈的物理吸引力，导致钛片粘在模具上。这就是为什么，最好采用具有低摩擦系数（小于0.15）和优异热稳定性的TD涂层或多组分纳米复合材料的PVD涂层，能够阻挡撕裂路径。

Which Quality Certifications Must a Supplier Possess Before Being Defined as a Stamping for Difficult Metals Specialist?

One cannot judge the factory's capability for the stamping of difficult metals due to the factory size only. Certifications like IATF 16949 quality management system for the automotive industry and ISO 9001 serve major assurance of consistent production. All our manufacturing methods strictly comply with the expectations of the ISO 9001:2015 quality management system.

Systematic Quality Control Process

We have installed an extensive quality control mechanism to make sure that each item fulfills the customer's requirements. This is a vital quality control element for stamping for difficult metals.

• Raw Material Incoming Inspection: Material re-inspection with a spectrometer to verify compliance with ASTM B265 standards.
• Stamping Process Control: SPC real-time monitoring of CPK values, with CPK target 1.33.
• Three Inspections in One Mold: First piece inspection, patrol inspection and last piece inspection.
• Final Inspection: 3D scanning full-size inspection, third-party non-destructive testing.

These procedures certify very strict metal stamping quality inspection. This is Besides being the basis for the uniformity of our precision titanium stamping service.

Traceable Quality Assurance System

Each batch of products has a unique quality file created by us, in which we document all production stages from raw materials to final products. A professional titanium stamping service provider can build quality traceability systems in detail. Through the product number, customers can access all corresponding quality data, making product tracing possible.

Quality management is fully supported by this system for metal stamping batch production. Besides that, we supply quality inspection reports together with the products, so you can comfortably rely on our products.

How Can Benefit from an Engineering-Driven Titanium Stamping Service Provider?

Working with a titanium stamping service provider with a strong focus on engineering not only gives you the manufacturing contract only, but also brings along a price-cutting measure from the product structure through the Design for Manufacturing (DFM) phase, so that you can have a faultless experience of a full tech output.

24-hour free DFM report availability

Upon receipt of STEP/IGES format 3D drawings, the technical team shall prepare and send a complete, free DFM report within 24 hours at the latest. The report comes with signposts build upon the information of wall thickness risks, springback prediction, draft radius optimization, etc. A professional titanium stamping service provider is capable of extending such value-added services. For example, the application of DFM optimization will result in a cut of the unit cost by more than 20% as per our latest experience on a drone battery cover project.

Using DFM optimization, efforts that are made to fix the problems are recognized during the metal stamping process simulation beforehand. This is one of the titanium stamping service avenues with which the service provider assists clients in cost reductions and efficiency enhancements.

Case Study: How LS Manufacturing Overcame a Severe Piercing Crack and 15 Degree Springback Challenge via a Hard to Form Titanium Stamping Service？

In fact, the case shows our full technical capabilities in the hard to form titanium stamping service to a client who faced a big challenge in stamping titanium alloy.

Client's problem

This component is a kind of hard to form titanium parts, and the stamping process has to be extremely accurate. The major overseas drone manufacturer had a crisis bottleneck in the production of a light protective cover for a 0.8mm thick Grade 5 (TC4) titanium alloy battery. The piece has 12 fine-packed 3.5mm punched holes and two very small 90 bends. Such complicated elements also highly challenged the metal stamping surface treatment.

The first two suppliers, who only used traditional cold stamping, found that they had a 42% cracking rate at the bending parts, while the springback was over the limit by 15, which brought the assembly to a halt and the project stopped for three months leading to a loss of more than $10,000 per day. The client tried different ways such as adding lubricant, lowering the stamping speed, and even manual correction, but none was good enough.

LS 制造解决方案

With the participation of LS Manufacturing's senior engineering team, as a professional titanium part stamping manufacturer, we had extensive experience in handling such parts.

1. Firstly, we carried out a major DFM upgrade, In particular restyling the inner radius of the bend from 0.5mm to 1.2mm. This small change lowered the local level of stress concentration by 60%.
2. Our group thoroughly rejected the original cold stamping method, installing a 240℃ intelligent closed-loop temperature-controlled heating element system in the mold, and using a multi-element nano-PVD coating with hardness of HV 3300 on the punch surface. And this, punch clearance was optimized to 9% of the sheet thickness on one side. These tiny refinements are instrumental in untangling difficult metal stamping die design issues.
3. We used 15 ultra-bending pre-compensation based on FEA simulation and executed a 2.0-second exact hot pressing operation at the press dead center.

Result and Impact

Our precision titanium stamping service after two rounds of tough prototyping tests completely proved that it can handle extreme forming challenges. The punching and bending crack rate of a highly difficult hard-formed titanium alloy part was entirely eliminated (0%), and the geometric tolerance was carefully maintained within 0.04mm.

Die life per repair shot was increased to more than 40 000 reducing the customer's total small-batch trial production cost by 38%, and at the same time, helping the customer to mass production two weeks ahead of schedule. In consequence, the customer entrusted us with all their titanium alloy stamping orders with annual purchases exceeding $5 million.

常见问题解答

Q1: How long does it usually take to get a custom titanium stamping mold and a sample from LS Manufacturing?

For titanium alloy medium-complexity precision stamping dies, the standard mold making cycle is about 21-25 working days at LS Manufacturing. The first inspection sample (FAI) can be 3D scanned for verification and shipped via air 48 hours after completion.

Q2: Is it possible for your titanium stamping service to meet very tight micrometer tolerances on thin-walled structural components?

Yes, with the help of on-line pressure monitoring of precision stamping presses and our proprietary finite element springback hardening pre-compensated mold design, we can continually control the form and position tolerances of thin-walled titanium alloys (thickness 0.3mm-1.2mm) within 0.03mm-0.05mm.

Q3: What measures does LS Manufacturing take to avoid deep scratches and tearing defects on titanium parts that are difficult to be shaped?

We apply an intelligent hot stamping system to locally heat the material to a constant temperature of 200℃-300℃ to activate more slip systems. Plus a supersaturated TD or nano-composite PVD coating on the punch surface, this completely eliminates sticking and surface scratches.
