Car Hood Sheet Metal Forming

Sheet metal forming is used for industrial manufacturing in many sectors from car door to tin can.

Car hood sheet metal forming.

Whether it s as complex as hammering and forming a deuce quarter panel from scratch or as we re about to show bending up a custom model 40 hood from sheet aluminum there s not much you can t. The sheet metal used for automobile panel fabrication and for some panel support structures is a highly evolved and complex series of alloys based in the steel family. Composition fabrication and basic characteristics. The invention discloses a manufacturing process of a car hood and relates to the field of car manufacturing.

1 blanking 2 stretch. The desired shape is achieved through plastic deformation without undergoing any machining like milling. For automotive metal forming the blank is often made of sheet metal which can be stamped cut or bent into a shape needed for an automobile s body. Sheet metal is a huge part of any hotrod build or autobody repair.

In sheet metal forming the final shape of a part is made from a flat metal sheet. The blank becomes the workpiece the piece of metal to be reshaped in the metal forming process. Alternatively it can be a solid block of metal in a cubical or lens like shape. The manufacturing process comprises the following steps.
