Forming a Replacement Blade Guard
Design Considerations
Introduction
Traditional metal manufacturing techniques include forming, casting, molding, joining, and machining.
Sheet metal forming is the most cost-effective forming procedure today for manufacturing parts at large quantities. It can be highly automated in factories or, at the other end of the spectrum, manually operated in metal workshops for small series parts. It is a versatile, consistent, and high-quality procedure to create accurate metal parts with limited material waste.
Experimental Case Study: Sheet Metal Forming With 3D Printed Dies
In this section, we will give recommendations on how to design and use a tool for sheet metal forming and outline the different steps of the method. We will be looking at how to 3D print tools to create a replacement blade guard for an electric saw.
