Production methods
Punching & Waterjet cutting (gaskets, etc.)
Stamping and waterjet cutting manufactures gaskets and other flat components by cutting materials according to specific patterns.
Punching uses a punching tool to cut out shapes from a flat sheet of material, while waterjet cutting uses a high-pressure jet of water, sometimes mixed with abrasives, to cut through the material with precision.
Advantages of these methods include high precision, fast production and the ability to handle a variety of materials. Limitations can be material waste when punching and higher initial equipment costs when waterjet cutting.
These techniques are widely used to manufacture gaskets, seals, insulation parts and other flat components in the automotive, electronics and construction industries, where precise dimensions and clean cutting are important.
