What are the applications of combining composite materials with metal stamping?

1.Car lightweight components

• Application: JS helps car companies reduce weight by more over 30% maintaining crash collision safety combining metal stamping structural components, such as frame crossbeams, with carbon fiber composites. Metal stamping parts are formed by a metal stamp process that provides high rigidity support in key areas, while composite material covers non-bearing areas to reduce overall weight.
• Technical highlights: JS's CNC machining technology can accurately control the tolerance (±0.005mm) of metal punch to ensure seamless connection with composites and reduce assembly errors.

2.Aerospace heat resistant components

• Application example: A satellite project combines titanium alloy punch and ceramic matrix composites for use in rocket engine nozzles. Metal stamping parts can withstand high temperature and pressure environment, while the outer layer of composite material provides thermal insulation.
• Technical highlights: JS's automated production line can complete metal stamping and composite material coating at the same time, shorten the production cycle to 60% of traditional processes and achieve a yield rate of 98%.

3.Consumer electronics cooling module

• Application example: The high-end smartphone heat sink adopts the aluminum alloy stamping frame and graphene composite integrated design. Metal stamping parts are processed by metal stamp technology to ensure the electromagnetic shielding performance of the finished product, while composite materials effectively conduct heat.
• Technical highlights: JS's precision machining technology can achieve 0.02mm of micropore processing to meet the density requirements heat dissipation holes, while reducing overall thickness by 0.5mm through material composite.

4.Medical devices

• Application example: Stainless steel stamping frame and PEEK composite material for external fixation support of orthopedics. Metal stamping parts provide precise support, while composite materials reduce weight and prevent X-ray interference.
• Technical highlights: JS's flexible manufacturing system supports small volume customization of production, up to 7 working days from design to delivery, and serves multiple international medical device manufacturers.

5.New energy storage systems

• Application example: The battery shell adopts the composite structure of aluminum magnesium alloy punch and fiberglass composite to ensure mechanical strength and improve corrosion 저항. 
• JS's process can reduce the weight of the casing by 18% while improving battery life through simulation.

Which industries does metal stamping help?

1.Automotive industry

This is definitely the biggest beneficiary! Think about it, how many things on a car are stamped out of metal? Doors, roofs, hoods, trunk lids and other shells (body coverings), the supporting skeletons (frames, chassis parts), and various brackets, brackets, fuel tanks, exhaust pipe parts, etc., are too numerous to count.

Stamping allows automakers to produce these key parts quickly and cheaply, and with stable quality. Now everyone is pursuing lighter and more fuel-efficient cars, and materials such as high-strength steel and aluminum alloys are also mainly handled by advanced stamping technology.

2.Home appliance industry

Many of the shells of home appliances such as refrigerators, washing machines, air conditioners, microwave ovens, ovens, and range hoods are stamped out of metal plates. Stamping ensures that these parts have regular shapes and accurate sizes, making home appliances look beautiful, easy to install, and durable to use.

3.Electronic products industry

Computer cases, laptop shells, server cabinets, metal brackets inside mobile phones, connectors, heat sinks, metal shells and chassis of various electronic devices, all of which require very precise metal parts. Stamping technology, especially precision stamping, can efficiently and in large quantities produce these small parts with high size requirements and complex shapes, which is essential for the manufacture of electronic products.

4.Industrial equipment and machinery industry

Shells, protective covers, bases, brackets, gears, sprockets, conveyor belt parts, motor housings, pump body parts, etc. of various machine equipment. Stamping provides a large number of sturdy and reliable structural parts and functional parts for these industrial equipment, and is one of the basic links in equipment manufacturing.

5.Other fields

• Aerospace: Non-load-bearing structural parts, brackets, panels, etc. inside some aircraft (very high requirements).
• Medical equipment: Some instrument shells, brackets, surgical instrument parts, etc. (with requirements for precision and cleanliness).
• Lighting industry: Lamp housings, reflectors, lamp holders, etc.

What are the restrictions on stamping materials for engine blades?

1.High temperature stability

Leaves need to work in a high temperature (800°C to 1100°C) gas environment for a long time, the material needs to resist creep, oxidation and low thermal expansion coefficient.

• Typical materials: Nickel based superalloys (such as Inconel 718), titanium alloys (Ti-6Al-4V).
• Technical response: JS company uses vacuum heat treatment and surface coating (such as DLC or ceramic coating) to improve the material's high temperature resistance.

2.Mechanical strength and fatigue life limitations

• The blades need to withstand centrifugal force, vibration, and thermal stress, and the materials need high yield strength (≥800MPa) and excellent fatigue resistance.
• Typical materials: ultra-high strength steel (e.g. Maraging Steel), directional solidification alloys.
• Technical response: JS's precision stamping equipment achieves micrometer level tolerance control (± 0.005mm), reducing the risk of stress concentration.

3.The contradiction between lightweight and specific strength

• Density must be reduced while maintaining strength to increase the thrust to weight ratio of the engine.
• Typical materials: Titanium alloy, carbon fiber reinforced composites (CFRP).
• Technical response: JS adopts topology optimization design to embed lightweight composite reinforcement ribs in metal stamping parts to reduce weight by over 20%.

4.Material processability limitations

• High-strength materials, such as nickel alloys, have severe job hardening and are prone to cracking, while titanium alloys exhibit significant knife stabbing.
• Technical response: JS uses gradient stamping technology, combined with professional lubricating oil and multi-process forming technology, to reduce the risk of material tearing.

5.Corrosion resistance and oxidation limitations

• Sulfide and chloride in gas can easily cause material corrosion and shorten blade life.
• Typical material: Corrosionresistant alloys such as Hastelloy X, surface nitrogen treatment.
• Technical response: JS's precision cleaning and passivation process can remove stamping residue and combine with anodic oxidation to improve corrosion resistance.
