Material selection
editGenerally, T8, T10, T10A, and even better 42CrMo materials are used, which mainly require high strength, high toughness, and good wear resistance. Cold work die steel is selected Cr12MoV is a very good material The performance can meet the requirements, the process performance is good, and the price will be higher. 42CrMo is a high-strength alloy quenched and tempered steel with high strength and toughness Can work below 500 degrees Celsius
using standards
edit1. Connect the power supply of the bending machine, turn the key switch, press the oil pump to start, and the bending machine oil pump starts to rotate. At this time, the machine has not yet started working.
2. Travel adjustment requires a trial run before officially starting the bending work using the bending machine mold. When the upper mold of the bending machine descends to the bottom, there must be a gap of plate thickness. Otherwise, it will cause damage to the mold and machine. The adjustment of the itinerary also includes electric quick adjustment and manual fine adjustment.
3. The selection of the slot for the bending machine mold generally requires selecting a slot with a width 8 times the thickness of the plate. If bending a 4mm sheet metal, a slot of about 32 should be selected.
4. Check the overlap and firmness of the upper and lower molds of the bending machine; Check whether each positioning device meets the requirements for processing. Regularly check the overlap of the upper and lower molds; Whether the indication of the pressure gauge complies with the regulations.
5. When bending the sheet metal, it must be compacted to prevent the sheet metal from lifting and injuring the operator during bending.
6. When adjusting the sheet metal pressing mold, the power must be cut off and the operation must be stopped before proceeding.
7. When changing the opening of the lower die of the variable bending machine, no material is allowed to come into contact with the lower die.
8. It is prohibited to use bending machine molds to bend excessively thick iron plates or quenched steel plates, high-grade alloy steel, square steel, and plates that exceed the performance of the plate bending machine, in order to avoid damaging the machine tool.
9. Turn off the bending machine and place wooden blocks on the lower mold below the oil cylinders on both sides to lower the upper sliding plate onto the wooden blocks. Exit the control system program first, and then cut off the power.
installation and adjustment
editWhen installing the bending machine mold, it is necessary to check the status of the equipment, and then install and debug according to the steps. Pay attention to personal safety during debugging.
Machine adjustment
When installing the bending machine mold, the first thing to do is to understand the machine performance, turn on the bending machine, patiently adjust and inspect it, and see if there is any dust or iron debris that has been used before. Prevent unnecessary trouble for later use.
Slide stroke adjustment
First, check if the thickness of the bending machine mold and the ratio of the upper and lower modules are normal. Generally, the slider needs to be controlled at the switch point of the travel line, which must be paid attention to, otherwise it will cause the mold to not function properly. However, some people still make this mistake frequently.
Adjustment of itinerary module
After adjusting the slider stroke standard, the next step is to adjust the upper limit point of the module. Generally speaking, when the module reaches its highest point, the sum switch of the module needs to be set properly. By doing so, the position where the module stays can be identified, and through the above operations, production efficiency can be greatly increased. During this process, it is also necessary to slow down the module. Because when the module reaches the bottom dead center, it is necessary to slow down the module, which protects the machine and mold.
Adjustment of gaps
Finally, it is about adjusting the gap between the bending machine molds. First, measure the gap between the upper and lower modules. The reasonable gap needs to be determined based on the folded sheet metal.
Angle adjustment
Adjusting the bending angle is also the most important step, and the angle selection is definitely related to the product requirements. Generally speaking, when bending a 90 ° mold, the angle must be set to the middle angle, which must be greater than the angles on both sides. Sometimes it may be too tight, which can be handled by adjusting the screws on the machine. After adjustment, do not make any further modifications to the product without changing its requirements. Then, during bending, use a pressure gauge to calculate the accurate pressure number and adjust the pressure accordingly. To avoid causing the mold to break.

Chinese application
editObserving the development of China's manufacturing industry from a global perspective, it can be seen that China's manufacturing industry has developed rapidly in recent years. For the CNC bending machine mold industry, this means a huge market. In this context, it is a recognized fact that China has low manufacturing costs. From the perspective of labor productivity, statistical data shows that China has a gap of about 3-5 times compared to developed countries such as Germany, the United States, and Japan. Such a large market, low labor productivity, and continuous progress and development of manufacturing technology are both opportunities and challenges for the CNC bending machine mold industry. The demand for CNC bending machine molds in the market is not only about increasing quantity, but more importantly, about improving quality. From the perspective of user industries, there are seven major industries with the most significant demand for CNC bending machine molds.
equipment manufacturing industry
Against the backdrop of increasingly tight global energy supply and rising oil prices, the demand for power generation equipment has become increasingly evident. In the manufacturing process of power generation equipment, the cost spent only on the CNC bending machine mold part is very considerable.
Mold manufacturing industry
In the process of mold manufacturing, CNC bending machine molds are required in almost all stages such as forming molds, hot molds, cold molds, and plastic molds. In addition, automobiles, high-speed trains, general machinery manufacturing, and the wood processing industry, which has gradually expanded its usage in recent years, have become the main users of the CNC bending machine mold industry.
Aerospace industry
In this industry, CNC bending machine molds are generally used to cut aircraft structural components. These structural components are generally large in volume and have been extensively made of aluminum alloy in the past. With the expansion of the application fields of titanium alloys and composite materials, the requirements for CNC bending machine mold processing are also increasing.
As one of the key industries supported by the state, in recent years, the government has invested a large amount of funds in the research and development of large aircraft in the aerospace industry. These developments are multifaceted, and we will analyze the aspects related to CNC bending machine molds, focusing on the use of structural component materials.
From the latest Boeing 787 fuselage, it can be seen that the previous method of directly covering with aluminum alloy has gradually been abandoned and replaced by direct laying and wrapping of composite materials. In addition, the amount of titanium alloy is also increasing. Compared to the past, the new method can greatly reduce aircraft weight, save fuel and energy consumption, which is particularly important for large passenger aircraft.
Titanium alloy is widely recognized as a difficult to machine material. Composite materials that only require laying and winding may not seem to require a large amount of processing, but the requirements for processing quality are becoming increasingly high. For the CNC bending machine mold industry, these are all significant challenges. In addition to the structural components of the aircraft body, machining the aircraft engine is also a challenge. Engines are generally made of difficult to machine materials, with complex shapes that require processes such as slotting, drilling, and blade processing. The actual cutting effect requirements for CNC bending machine molds are very high. In addition, to meet the high-quality requirements of aircraft structural components, overall blanks are generally used for processing, and more than 90% of the material will be cut off. Due to the large processing volume, high processing efficiency is required.
development trend
editFrom the development history of CNC bending machine molds, from the late 19th century to the mid-20th century, high-speed steel was the main representative material for CNC bending machine molds; In 1927, Germany first developed hard alloy CNC bending machine mold materials and widely applied them; In the 1950s, Sweden and the United States respectively synthesized synthetic diamonds, and the cutting of CNC bending machine molds entered a period represented by superhard materials. In the 1970s, people used high-pressure synthesis technology to synthesize polycrystalline diamond (PCD), solving the problem of scarce and expensive natural diamonds, and expanding the application scope of diamond CNC bending machine molds to multiple fields such as aviation, aerospace, automotive, electronics, and stone.
The selection of mold materials for CNC bending machines is the foundation for successful cutting processing. Compared with cemented carbide, the speed of PCD CNC bending machine molds can reach 4000m/min, while cemented carbide only has 1/4 of it. In terms of lifespan, PCD CNC bending machine molds can generally increase by 20 times. From the surface quality of the processed material, the effect of PCD is 30% to 40% better than that of hard alloy. In addition, the development of CBN (cubic boron nitride) superhard material CNC bending machine molds and surface coating CNC bending machine molds has also contributed to the advancement of cutting technology.
