Deep Drawing Process

Deep drawing is an important sheet metal forming process to produce a wide variety of axi-symmetric and non axi-symmetric hollow shapes such as cups, domes and shallow cavities. Deep drawn products are produced on presses using special dies which could be Single stage, Progressive or Transfer types. Single stage dies are generally used for batch production of low accuracy products while Progressive and Transfer dies are used for mass production of products requiring higher accuracy.

Deep drawing process is a complex capital intensive process. A well designed die offers benefit of high productivity, low scrap rate, excellent mechanical properties after forming, good surface quality and high accuracy of drawn parts.
