1.How to find the blank length of this section?
35 mm

Blank length = Total section dimention - 2 x No of


bend x Thick

Blank = (25+35+25+35+25)-2x4x2
Blank = 145-2x4x2
Thick - 2mm Blank = 145 - 16
Blank length = 129 mm
25 mm

3.How to find force required for the punching and piercing?

Force = SPT

100 mm
S = 35 to 45 kg ²/ mm
P = 2(l+b)
P = 2(200+100)
200 mm P = 2x300
Thick = 2mm P = 600 mm²

Force = 40x600x2
Force = 48000 kgs
Force = 48 ton

4.How to find the force required for blanking?

Force = SPT

Ø300 mm
S = 35 to 45 kg/mm²
P=2 r
P = 2 x 22/7x 150
T = 2 mm

F = 40(2x3.14x150x2)
F = 40x942x2
F = 75.36 = 76 ton
