D.I.D VIETNAM CO., LTD
Forming technology (Daido Kogyo Technology)
Plastic forming technology
Our original “SOSEI-FORMA technology” was developed based on skills that have been refined through the production of chains and other components. Various phenomena occurring in press forming are analyzed according to the plasticity theory, and the press load is optimized by adjusting processing conditions, dies and special devices. Thus, the press forming of products in complex shapes is possible while maintaining a processed surface condition equivalent to fine blanking. This technology has produced much value via net shape processing, such as cost reduction and contribution to the promotion of a low-carbon society.
*Net shape processing: Finish processing (cutting, etc.) is not required to complete products.
Our original plastic forming technology: SOSEI-FORMA
Value produced via SOSEI-FORMA technology
Value 1: Reduction of costs and lead time
This fine, efficient processing method enables cost reduction, lead time shortening and the streamlining of supply chains
Value 2: Enables processing of difficult materials such as stainless steel and high-tension steel
Shear droop is minimized and a smooth, fine surface is produced
Value 3: Contribution to low-carbon society
Yield ratios are improved and resources and energy are saved by omitting cutting processes (CO2 emission is reduced)
