Shearing is less than ideal with harder metals.
Disadvantages of sheet metal process.
This process is also used for straightening parts.
Metal can go through a wider range of processes including chipping deep drawing casting forging welding and soldering.
Peen forming is suitable for shallow contours on large sheets.
This process is for long parts with constant complex cross sections.
Metal is more cost efficient when it comes to long term high volume lines of production.
It produces good surface finish.
Stretch forming can be used to produce large parts with shallow contours but it is only suitable.
Sheet metal forming process advantages and disadvantages 1.
However stretch draw forming with mating dies can be done as rapidly and automatically as conventional.
Notable disadvantages of shearing.
In some applications especially in stretch wrapping the process is slower than competitive processes and it is not suited to high volume production.
