A die apparatus includes a tip end part blanking punch which forms a tip end configuration of a belt-shaped sheet through a punch holding unit in an upper die. The punch holding unit includes a punch plate which holds the tip end part blanking punch, a punch plate moving mechanism which is lowered together with the upper die in a state where the punch plate is separated from the upper die when the tip end configuration of the belt-shaped sheet is formed, and holds the punch plate in a state where the punch plate is allowed to come near to the upper die when the punch plate is lifted, and an actuating mechanism which operates the punch plate moving mechanism in cooperation with a blanking or stamping operation of the upper die only when the tip end configuration of the belt-shaped sheet is formed.

A die for a blanking device, a blanking accumulation device, and a blanking method are provided with which blanks having a length that is greater than a width of a metal coil can be blanked and accumulated in an accumulating device (piler), with a target orientation.

The method includes a continuous metal coil that is received and is subjected to blanking using a die. The die has a shearing portion for blanking a blank. The shearing portion has an inclination angle relative to a line direction in which the blank is discharged. The die further includes, downstream of the shearing portion, a discharge means including an orientation changing means for changing an orientation of the blank from an inclined state having a first inclination angle, at the time at which shearing is complete, to a second larger inclination angle.

A punching device includes: a die to receive a substrate disposed thereon; a stripper spaced apart from and facing the die, and to move toward the substrate to fix the substrate; and a punch to move toward the substrate and cut the substrate. The stripper includes: a punch accommodation portion to accommodate the punch; and a punching oil supply passage located inside the stripper, and to supply a punching oil to a side surface of the punch accommodation portion.

An integrated circuit production method. In some examples, the method includes receiving a leadframe comprising a plurality of in-production ICs in a forming machine, singulating the plurality of in-production ICs, forming leads of at least some of the plurality of in-production ICs to comply with dimensions and tolerances corresponding to an intended form factor of the plurality of in-production ICs, and separating, automatically by the forming machine, formed ICs from unformed ICs after the forming.

A component forming machine with jammed component mitigation. In some examples, the component forming machine can include a platform configured to receive a lower die that supports a plurality of components for forming and includes a void through which at least some of the plurality of components pass subsequent to the forming, a die press positioned above the lower die and configured to lower an upper die to exert downward pressure on the plurality of components to form unformed components and formed components, and a separation system. In some examples, the separation system is configured to interact with the lower die to permit the formed components to fall into the void and prevent the unformed components from falling into the void.

A punching tool that is capable of being used and modified independently of the shape of an opening to be punched, and is capable of being used for all round, angular and/or special-shaped tool contours. The punching tool generally comprises a cylinder with a fastener and a die having a lead-through for the fastener and a cavity with a stamp that is configured to connect to the fastener such that a spacer bushing is held to the cylinder.

A knockout punch tool includes a housing, a working head with a cutting die, a hydraulic circuit with an actuator to move the cutting die, a pump providing pressurized fluid, a pressure sensor, a fluid reservoir, and a controller. The controller monitors pressure during knockout operations, determines completion when pressure exceeds a first threshold indicating cutting has started then drops below a second threshold, determines when pressure derivative is at or near zero, verifies the derivative remains near zero for a preset time, and automatically initiates a hydraulic dump sequence to release pressurized fluid back to the reservoir, retracting the cutting die to home position.
