Universal Nibbling Machine

1. Shearing tools are available for straight cutting, figure cutting (contour cutting) and circle cutting operations. The shearing length per cut is small and there is no wastage of materials.
2. Nibbling is a continuous punching operation with a circular tool and is used for producing internal and external cut-outs of any shape. The workpiece does not warp but the edges produced may require filing, depending on the end use. The fixed nibbling tool is a. solid punch cutting at one side. The punch and die clearance is provided to suit the sheet thickness and the feed is controlled by the tool design. This tool, when used with the rotary nibbling attachment, enables nibbling in any direction without turning the sheet.
3. Rectangular notching is a continuous punching operation with a square punch and die. It is used mainly for producing internal rectangular cutouts. The tool cuts in the two directions and the edges produced are clean.
4. Universal nibbling tool consists of a round or square hollow nibbling punch, a guide pin and die. The nibbling punch cuts on all sides and with copying complates it becomes a quick and economical way to produce parts or cutouts of any shape or size. The guide pin controls the feed rate.
5. Slot cutting is a done with a double-edged cutting tool which avoids warping of sheets. Suitable for parting of sheets, cutting small strips and slots. The upper tool has to be changed for each slot width while the bottom tool is adjustable.
6. Louver cutting is a combined shearing and forming operations. The sheet is first cut and then the louver is formed with the forming part of the tool. The length of louvers produced is independent of the length of the tool.
   This operation as well as beading, folding and flanging are completed in 2 to 3 passes. After every pass the tool is fed further towards the sheet.
7. Beading is a forming operation used for the stiffening of sheets.
8. Folding is also a forming operation and by double folding, channels may be made for housing of electrical writing etc.
9. Flanging is forming operation very commonly used on sheet metal parts. 0° to 90° flanging is possible by changing the lower tool only. 2-3 passes are generally required and intermediate annealing may be necessary in some cases to get the correct angle of flange. Like all other forming operations, the circle guiding attachment for straight feeding attachment is necessary for producing circular or straight flanges. However, a separate tool which uses the edge of the workpiece for guidance is available for free hand flanging of any shape.
10. Dishing or peening is a mechanical hammering operation used for forming dished parts like tank bottoms. The quality of dishes formed depends on the skill of the operator.
11. Large hole punching is possible with special punch and die sets. Round or square holes such as needed for fixing lamps or push buttons etc. on panels are produced on these low tonnage machines by providing a shear on the punch.
12. Inner circle cutting Available for circles from 100 mm dia meter up to a maximum circle dia meter-the size being 80% of throat depth of the corresponding model chosen. Pre-hole in the centre is necessary for sheet thickness above 2 mm
