Metal forming & Pressing
Eliminate 90% of the manual re-work
It’s a proven fact that organisations who use specially-formulated Kaylan for sheet metal forming within their manufacturing process achieve superior tolerance control during the production of vital components. What’s more, Kaylan has eliminated 90% of the manual re-work that has historically been required, saving both time and money.
Enhanced performance
A specially-developed range of Kaylan materials is being used to enhance performance across a wide range of metal pressing techniques. From traditional press braking, rubber pad pressing and stretch forming right through to the latest hydroforming processes. What’s more, Kaylan not only withstands repeated flexing under enormous pressure, it also intensifies the pressing action to ensure a superior finished product.
Improved productivity
Resistant to cuts, abrasion and punctures, Kaylan slave sheets also improve the life of the presses by protecting the rubber pad or PU diaphragm from damage by debris and sharp edges. Plus, by offering improved forming characteristics at lower pressing forces, Kaylan reduces both stresses and wear on the machine leading to longer service intervals and improved productivity.
Free from marks
Kaylan also eliminates the secondary polishing often required after the metal has been marked during the press braking process. By using Kaylan film whilst press braking, performance is enhanced and metal parts are repeatedly produced free of any marking from the press tool.
