Manufacturing Process Of Metal Tool Box

I. Overview

The iron tool box, as the name suggests, is a tool box made of iron material. The metal tool box is sturdy in quality and has the characteristics of being rust-proof, scrub-resistant, and not easily damaged. The manufacturing process of metal toolboxes is complicated and requires multiple processes to complete. Let’s introduce the manufacturing process of metal tool boxes.

2. Material preparation

The materials needed to make a metal tool box include iron sheet, iron sheet strength plate, steel pipe, steel plate, rivets, screws, pulleys, basic paint, etc. These materials should be of good quality and without damage to the surface to ensure the quality of the tool box.

3. Design and Drawing

Before making a metal toolbox, the first thing you need to do is design and draw it. The drawing should be designed according to the size and capacity of the tool box. On the premise of ensuring that the size is appropriate, the waste of materials should be minimized. After the drawing is completed, you can use drawing software to make a 3D rendering so that customers can intuitively feel the shape and capacity of the toolbox before purchasing.

4. Cutting and shaping

After design and drawing, materials such as iron sheets can be cut and shaped according to the shape and size of the tool box. When cutting, pay attention to the choice of tool and cutting speed to avoid damaging the material surface. Once the cutting is complete, the edges need to be trimmed to keep the tool box looking neat.

5. Sheet metal processingThe cut iron sheet is processed into sheet metal to make the shell and lid of the tool box. Sheet metal processing includes bending, bending, expansion and other processing processes. After the processing is completed, a preliminary trial assembly of the tool box can be carried out to test the accuracy and rationality of the processing.

6. Welding

After the sheet metal processing is completed, the iron tool box needs to be welded. Welding is one of the most critical aspects of the metal toolbox manufacturing process. Before welding, the welds need to be ground and demagnetized to ensure the firmness and beauty of the welding.

7. Polishing

After welding is completed, grinding is required. Sanding is to remove burrs and distortions that occur during the welding process and to make the surface of the tool box smooth. When sanding, attention should be paid to the appropriate thickness and not to remove the surface coating of the iron sheet.

8. Painting

After sanding is complete, the tool box can be painted. Painting can make the toolbox more beautiful and prevent the iron from rusting. Surface treatment is required before painting, such as rust removal, oil removal, polishing and other processes. When painting, attention should be paid to the type and ratio of paint to ensure the surface gloss and color of the tool box.

9. Maintenance

The manufacturing process of metal toolboxes is complex and the quality is excellent, but they also require maintenance. During use, violent impact and distortion should be avoided. At the same time, the surface and interior of the tool box need to be cleaned frequently to prevent dust and moisture from damaging the iron sheet. If rust appears on the toolbox, it should be removed and painted in time.

【Conclusion】

Through the above introduction, we can understand the production process of iron toolboxes and master the processes of designing drawings, cutting and forming, sheet metal processing, welding, grinding, and painting. At the same time, we also introduced the characteristics and maintenance methods of metal tool boxes. I hope this article is helpful to readers who need to make a metal tool box.
