SME MM910410

THE NEED AND THE DESIRE TO EXAMINE QUICK DIE CHANGE ARE GROWING RAPIDLY THROUGHOUT THE STAMPING INDUSTRY. ONCE THOUGHT TO BE THE REQUIREMENTS OF THE LARGE TONNAGE, MULTI-PRESS MANUFACTURERS ONLY, QUICK DIE CHANGE NOW HAS A PLACE IN ALL STAMPING OPERATIONS. THE PRIME REQUIREMENTS ARE THE DESIRE FOR COST EFFICIENCIES, IMPROVED PRODUCTION CYCLES AND THE DETERMINATION TO OBJECTIVELY EXAMINE ONE'S OPERATION WITH A VIEW TO REDUCING WASTE. THIS PAPER ILLUSTRATES THE ECONOMICS OF QUICK DIE CHANGE AND ITS AVAILABILITY TO BOTH LARGE TONNAGE, MULTI-PRESS USERS AND SMALL CUSTOM STAMPERS ALIKE. THROUGH THE AVAILABILITY OF MULTIPLE CLAMP HYDRAULICS AND/OR SIMPLE MECHANICAL HOLDING SYSTEM, THE ADVANTAGES OF RAPID DIE REMOVAL AND INSERTION CAN BE REALIZED.
