Sheet metal earthing bars
When you want images, numbers, letters or symbols stamped into sheet metal that are permanent there’s no better way than using a CNC punch press. We have 2 CNC punch presses and both can take the same tooling enabling us to be flexible when it comes to production. These earth bars with symbols have been CNC punched using a customer made punch tool and are clear even after zinc plating.
If numbers or letters are needed there are several tooling options which can be used such as alphanumeric holders for part numbers and stock codes. Larger images can be stamped in one hit but the clarity depends on the material and needs careful design and advise from the tool makers. We can talk to the toolmakers on your behalf and find the best fit for your design.
I would always say it’s worth asking us if you have an idea that needs stamping into a sheet metal product and you are not sure because we are always happy to check the feasibility with the tool makers for you before you need to commit to any tooling costs.
It’s also worth considering laser cutting if you are happy for the symbol to be cut right through the material. We have customer who have their logo laser cut into covers and then powder coated.
It’s easy, just send your drawings to sales@vandf.co.uk and we will do the rest.
