338 Sheet metal forming and blanking<br />

approximately vertical relative to the surface <strong>of</strong> the sheet metal. The<br />

fine blanked part is also flatter than a standard blanked part.<br />

4.7.2 Fine blanking materials, forces, quality characteristics<br />

and part variety<br />

Material selection<br />

Steel is the most commonly used material in the field <strong>of</strong> fine blanking<br />

technology. Non-ferrous metals such as copper, aluminium and their<br />

alloys account for no more than 10 %, although the tendency to use<br />

these is on the increase. Due to the high proportion <strong>of</strong> steel materials<br />

used, these are described in greater detail here.<br />

The steel types used are broken down into a number <strong>of</strong> groups: s<strong>of</strong>t<br />

unalloyed steels, general structural steels, fine-grained structural steels,<br />
