Definitions

  • a first type has a built-in mechanical spring and a second type has a polyurethane element adapted to generate the stripping force. Both variants are associated with problems and limitations.
  • Punch strippers with a mechanical spring operate by the mechanical spring, whose inner diameter is concentric with the outer diameter of the punch body, being mounted between a stripper part and an end part, thus exerting a pressure on the unit.
  • the stripper part has two outer diameters, one at the point of punching and one at the end of the spring. Both surfaces guide the stripper part during its working stroke.
  • the stripper part has a plane, machined surface to prevent it from rotating.
  • the punch stripper is designed as an integrated unit that can be replaced in connection with maintenance. If a larger or smaller stripping force is desired, the springs are replaced. Since needs vary, there are a large number of different springs to choose from. In addition, the user has to know how much force is required for the punching operation. In case of doubt, several spring variants and settings may be needed before the correct force is obtained. A further limitation is the useful life of mechanical springs, which may be slightly too short to meet the increasing demands in the sheet metal forming industry.
  • Punch strippers with a polyurethane element operate in a similar manner. They come in two variants. One operates in the same manner as punch strippers provided with a mechanical spring, but instead of a mechanical spring they use a polyurethane element. The other operates by the polyurethane forming the entire punch stripper.
  • the two designs may seem simple, but the polyurethane elements must be adapted to the stripping force required to perform the intended function.
  • the user has to know both the length to be used and the dimension/initial load intended to provide the desired force.
  • the useful life of polyurethane elements is generally shorter than that of mechanical springs. Thus, the useful life is a greater limitation for polyurethane.
  • a larger initial force can be obtained.
  • the larger force can be used to improve the punch performance in high-strength sheet metal; however, this is not required.
  • gas spring technology By employing gas spring technology and forming the pressure chamber between the inner sleeve and the outer sleeve assembly, a more compact assembly than existing assemblies can be obtained; however, this is not required.
  • the more compact assembly is advantageous since there is often little available space in today's press tools.
  • the stripping force required can be easily altered and a minimal number of variants of the punch stripper can be achieved; however, this is not required.
  • a press tool that includes at least two punch strippers; however, this is not required.
  • the respective pressure chambers of the at least two punch strippers may be in fluid communication with one another in order to maintain substantially the same pressure in the respective pressure chambers of the at least two punch strippers; however, this is not required.
  • the advantage of this arrangement is that an operator only has to charge the gas in one place without dismantling the punch stripper from the retainer; however, this is not required.
  • the gas pressure can be regulated in all punch strippers at the same time in a simple and flexible manner; however, this is not required.
  • the stripper that is adapted to be fastened to a punch retainer of a press tool that includes a punch stripper piston, and a pressure chamber adapted to spring-load the punch stripper piston; however, this is not required.
  • An indicating arrangement can be provided to indicate a pressure in the pressure chamber; however, this is not required.
  • the indicating arrangement is adapted to indicate whether the pressure in the pressure chamber exceeds and/or falls below a predetermined value; however, this is not required.
  • the indicating arrangement is an integral part with the punch stripper; however, this is not required.
  • the indicating arrangement includes a spring-loaded part which is visible from an outside of the punch stripper; however, this is not required.
