High processing speed with extremely precise cutting
Laser cutting involves cutting through plate-shaped material with a laser. At REINER®, this involves sheets, stainless steel or aluminum with a thickness of 0.5 mm to 4 mm. A focused and high-energy laser beam is directed at these plates, which is so intense that the material melts and vaporizes upon impact until the metal is penetrated and the cut is made. The resulting metal vapor is blown out using special gases and high pressure.
The metal stamping process enables large volumes of flat components to be manufactured from sheet metal at low unit cost. This is done at a high speed, where large presses with one cutting tool can punch many parts simultaneously from one sheet.
In modern practice, pressing combines fine blanking with forming of the metal piece. For this reason, the term "fineblanking/forming" has become established throughout the industry as a dual term for this manufacturing process. The particular economic efficiency of this manufacturing process results from the completion of three to four work steps in one pressing operation
Innovative toolmaking - competence from a single source
REINER® is itself a manufacturer of precision mechanical products and has always relied on its in-house tooling production for fine blanking and forming tools. Here at the company, the theory and knowledge of toolmaking meets the hard daily production practice of parts manufacturing and provides direct feedback on the quality and precision of the tools produced.
