1. Products Introduction
Fine Blanking & Formability Steel (FBFS) has wide range of chemical compositions
from low carbon steel to middle/high carbon steel and various low-alloyed steels. Beyond the
precise conditions of die in following working, when the material produced as steel sheet, the
process must be capable to control accurate thickness and good formability, then
introduced to versatile fine-blanking applications, such as automobile transmission
components, safety critical automotive components, locking systems, interior seat adjusters,
braking systems, automated machinery parts and also electronic component categories, door
locks etc..
The materials can be fine-blanked with smooth cut edges, so debarring can be
eliminated. Manufacturers can obtain products with value-added and cost down.

Although the materials usually dropped in hot rolled gauge range, however they need
more function advantages than cold rolled steel.
The main quality characteristics includes following:
(1) Precise thickness control: can meet the requirement of the die set-up in Fine Blanking
operation. The key factor is the achievement within several hundredth mm gauge
difference either in rolling or transverse direction in the sheet, no matter what sheet
gauge is.
(2) Formability: steel grades with high carbon equivalent are difficult in forming process,
but the work piece need the workability to be a high quality product, and then the steel
matrix with good spheroidized carbide can contribute the feature.
(3) Hardenability: because of the carbon equivalent of steel, the material has sufficient
hardenability if heat treatment after mechanical working provided.
