Production process of pipe cap: pressing stereotype

Production process of pipe cap: pressing stereotype

One of the most common manufacturing methods for pipe caps, where plate is cut out in a circle and formed by deep drawing.

Pressing stereotype is the manufacturing process of forming sheet metal stock, called blanks, into geometrical or irregular shapes that are more than half their diameters in depth. Pressing stereotype involves stretching the metal blank around a plug and then moving it into a moulding cutter called a die.

A pressing stereotype can be used for forming sheet metal into different shapes and the finished shape depends on the final position that the blanks are pushed down in. The metal used in pressing stereotype must be malleable as well as resistant to stress and tension damage.
