Sheet Metal Rapid Prototyping Product Description

KAIAO's Sheet Metal Rapid Prototyping Product

With the condition of fulfilling the functions and appearances, the design of Rapid-Sheet-Metal needs to ensure that the punching, cutting, the bending process can be simple and dimension stable, this is a key to get a cheap low cost for sheet metals.
When we get the files of the rapid sheet metal, we will choose the machining technology accordingly, of which there are laser cutting, punching, bending and inserts mounting, for those abnormal shapes, the edges will have burrs that need to be removed after cutting, if the cosmetic still feel the shape, we will do sanding smooth to make the surface look good.

One of the most important processes of rapid-sheet-metal is the bending, this is a key for the dimension stable and commitment to the tolerances, normally we will bend inner shape then outer shape, to bend the small shape then bigger shape, and to bend special shape then to the simple shape, if there is bending shape that need to bend to the bend, normally to bend to about 30~40°, then use the flat mold to press it to the end.
After all these processes are finished, the parts will go to do the post finishing if required. Different rapid sheet metal material will do different finishing, for example, aluminum sheet metal can do anodized, painting, plating, powder coat, while for steel and zinc plating sheet metal material, the finishing will be painting, plating, powder coat but not anodized.
