Applicability of grooving machines

What is a grooving machine suitable for?

CNC grooving machines are suitable for industries that require high-precision processing of sheet metal, such as elevators, decorative materials, stainless steel processing, home appliances, and prop displays.

It is designed and manufactured to meet the specific needs of industries such as decoration and elevator manufacturing. It can be used for V-grooving of materials such as stainless steel, iron, and copper plates. With the installation of special attachments, this new type of metal sheet grooving machine can also be used for grinding, polishing, and drawing metal sheets and profiles.

Some special workpieces cannot be bent into shape on a bending machine, or the products require specially designed complex molds to complete. However, by using a CNC stainless steel grooving machine to control the depth of the V-groove in the sheet metal, these special bending materials can be bent into shape on a regular bending machine using universal molds. Specifically, the remaining sheet metal thickness of the V-groove during one bending process is controlled to be around 0.3mm, resulting in a very small springback angle during this bending process.

By using a shallow V-groove in sheet metal to locate the length of the bending edge before bending, it is possible to pre-determine the length of the bending edge before bending. Then, bending can be performed on the bending machine according to the pre-marked V-groove, which can ensure the accuracy of the bending edge length and replace the back gauge function of the CNC bending machine, provided that the positioning accuracy of the V-groove CNC machine must reach 0.05 mm.

Why do grooving machines create grooves?

Traditional forced bending methods, which involve using a bending machine to bend sheet metal workpieces alone, cannot meet the designer's design requirements and fail to achieve the desired level of decoration and aesthetic effect.

Therefore, grooving machines can cut V-grooves on metal sheets such as stainless steel plates, aluminum plates, composite aluminum plates, and copper sheets, making the edge radius of curved workpieces smaller, which meets the special needs of metal sheet decoration in places such as restaurants, commercial buildings, banks, and airports.
