Hey, I work on industrial punches for a living. A few fine points: There should always be a clearance between the punch and die; soft stuff like brass and aluminium wants about 5% of material thickness, 10% for mild steel, and maybe more for hard stuff like stainless up to about 20%. Also, you only need 1 mm of penetration into the die, as the material snaps off before then. Another point, is that the force required to break through is totally dependent on the perimeter of the cut, not the surface area, so to minimize the force required for the cut, you can grind an angle on the cutting face, so the whole thing isn't brought to bear at once. Keep up the good work, that was another in a long series of great videos.

Wow great information! Thanks for this.

@benash2954 2 жыл бұрын

Excellent info. Do you need a relief angle on the punch (as in, not have the sides of the punch parallel with the direction that the punch moves) or is it ok for the punch to have parallel sides?

@PaskMakes 2 жыл бұрын

That's really awesome info Jeff, thanks for that. I did know about the clearance and did plan to mention it but forgot. I didn't feel I had the ability to work to those sort of tolerances with files and knew there would be some sort of clearance as I wouldn't be able to get the fit super precise. The force required is interesting. I wasn't super confident it'd work but I'm very happy with the results. :)

@@benash2954 yeah, you don’t need a draft angle like a mold, straight sides work great. The cut itself is a totally 2 dimensional thing. All the work takes place right at the intersection between punch & die

It was actually really cool to see this process. I work in a metal stamping factory and run various presses, but I've never seen how a die is made. I also tend to work team presses, they hit at anywhere from 250 to 600 ton. They can go higher but all the parts I've made on the big presses usually fall into that range

Nice project, reminds me of my apprenticeship as a tool and die maker in the 1970's. During the apprenticeship we also had to make those tools by hand using files. The first 6 months was really filing only (more or less) before we learned machining. Your tool looks well done and it does the job nicely. Btw if you would have hardened the punch before you could have used the punch and you press to precisely make the die. It also look to me that you made the gap between the punch and die just right. Although the exact measures of your logo inlay are really not important. The gap is dependent on the thickness of your sheet metal and the shear strength of the material you punch,

It's really interesting to watch how the punch & die are made; it's a process I've never seen before. Along with the Parser drill, it's a cool way to make your logo cutouts. Whether it's a project for something you need, or something that just seems like it'd be cool to try, your projects never fail to be great.

Great Die work, and great Patience Filing!! Couple of things: If you were to drill a Hole for a Pin to locate the top Cutting Die -- it would save a Future loosening of the screw holding it , getting skewed, and possibly ruining the cutter edge. Also , I would have drilled and counter sunk some socket head cap screws for the base die, again Pinning it in place with at least 1/8" Pins, again to make it rigid, and to save all that welding and side screwing action. If you are determined to use that process, slightly angling the screws in a downward angle would cure that Lifting problem. Subscribed!
