Influence of the Clearances in the Stamping Device upon the Burrs Resulted on the Stamped Bearing Cages Windows

Abstract:

The sheet metal bearing cages quality obtained through punching is influenced by a variety of factors related to the punching mechanism construction, to its adjustment onto the press and also to the technological parameters of the punching process itself. This paper refers to an experimental research study applied to a real industrial environment, which analyzes the sheet metal bearing cages obtained through punching. The paper informs about the main results which were obtained during researches regarding the influence of clearances between the active parts of the punching mechanism upon the dimensions of the punched bearing cages windows burrs. The study presents also some information about results interpretation and several related conclusions.
