Drawing-Stamping-Forming-Blanking
- Metalforming usually involves shaping the metal without removal of chips
- Lubricants are applied to the tools (dies) or the workpiece
- Emulsions are widely used, usually at high concentrations (10-20%)
- Lubricant residues often remain on the formed part for extended times and must provide corrosion protection
- Residues must be cleanable in process washing operations prior to finish coating or painting
- High levels of lubrication are often needed; tools are usually tool steel rather than carbide
- Astro-Draw A Heavy duty chlorinated soluble oil drawing and stamping lubricant with excellent adherence. Residues are soluble and easily cleaned.
