Perforated metal is material that has been stamped and punched by a machine to create holes. It is often called a sheet or plate.
This material was created over 150 years ago and was used exclusively in the mining industry. The perforation process was performed manually, which made the labor expensive and ineffective. The use of machines has simplified this task and punching needles are already made according to samples.
FEATURES OF PRODUCTION OF PERFORATED SHEETS
The production of material begins with the selection of a sheet. It should be flat so that it can be bent and cut without difficulty. The thickness of the material is several millimeters.
As for the technology, the most common is the use of a perforated roller. A cylinder with needles makes holes in the material. Their area should not exceed 35%. When a sheet of metal passes through the roller, holes are punched. Actually, this is how the desired product is obtained.
Another, no less popular method is pressing. There is multiple crimping with needles, which allows you to create several holes at the same time. This method is effective for large sheets.
Laser technology is the most innovative and modern. Its only disadvantage is the high cost. At the same time, the result is more accurate, with high control over the size of the holes and the pattern.
ADVANTAGES OF PERFORATED SHEETS
• Manufacturability. Well suited to welding and forming. It has the correct shape, which allows you to accurately make calculations.
• Wear resistance. Can be used in places with difficult conditions (aggressive environment, high humidity). Corrosion resistance is determined by the grade of steel.
• Variety. Different thicknesses, colors and other characteristics allow you to choose products for any industry.
SCOPE OF USE
Perforated sheet metal is used in modern architecture. Thanks to it, you can create unusual design designs.
In addition, it performs a number of important functions:
• Noise absorption. The material copes with this task perfectly.
• UV protection. Creates shade, provides ventilation.
• Profile for balustrades. This material has found application for panels of stairs, balconies. It protects structures from precipitation and other influences, has an attractive appearance, fits perfectly into any design.
Perforated sheets are also used in other industries:
• Food grade – for sorting machines, presses, dehumidifiers and other things.
• Energy – for separators, centrifuges, gas cleaners and others.
• Automotive – for fans, filters, radiator grilles.
