What are sheet metal blanking and punching?
Both blanking and punching are effective metalworking processes that shape a metal sheet.
Blanking is the process of cutting out a flat piece of metal from a large metal sheet or a coil of metal sheet. It is done with a punch and a die or laser cutter. The cut piece, known as the blank, is the workpiece that can be used later to manufacture final or semi-final products. This process is generally used to manufacture a car's body parts. For example, a fender is cut from a metal sheet and then undergoes a stamping process to form the desired shape.
Punching is a similar process that uses a die and a punch to create workpieces. But Contrary to blanking, it is used to punch holes in the metal sheet. The punched piece is the workpiece that can be used later to manufacture final or semi-final products.
