WHAT IS DEEP DRAWING?
Deep drawing is a metal forming process whereby a flat sheet of metal
is cold "drawn" or formed by mechanical or hydraulic presses into a seamless
can. As the material is drawn into the die by the punch, it flows
into a three dimensional shape. Drawing is generally considered “deep"
when the product formed is deeper than half its diameter. This depth
cannot usually be achieved by forming on simple punch presses. Drawn
parts have many different shapes and functions. Examples may include
sinks, fuel tanks, and housings for truck oil filters swimming pool water
filters, fire extinguishers and high-pressure vessels.
