Next-Generation 800-Ton Blanking Line Leads High-Speed Sheet Processing

A new generation of blanking lines, equipped with an 800-ton press and a 5,000×2,750mm large tabletop, is redefining production standards in the sheet metal processing industry. Designed to handle ultra-large sheet formats with unmatched stability, the system is already recognized as a breakthrough in both the automotive and appliance manufacturing sectors.

The line’s ability to process cold-rolled steel (CRS) and hot-rolled steel (HRS) with a material thickness range of 0.2–2.5mm makes it one of the most versatile systems on the market. This capability enables manufacturers to switch seamlessly between automotive exterior body panels, structural components, and thin-gauge materials for home appliances, enhancing flexibility while reducing downtime in multi-product facilities.

One of the most notable features is its 65 SPM high-speed stamping capability, a performance milestone that sets a new benchmark for production efficiency. Industry analysts note that this speed, combined with precision feeding and leveling, directly addresses the industry’s ongoing demand for higher throughput, tighter tolerances, and reduced scrap rates.

Adding to its technological edge, the line incorporates a magnetic stacking system, which ensures accurate, fully automated sheet stacking. This not only improves safety by minimizing manual handling but also supports continuous, unmanned operations, aligning with global trends toward smart factories and Industry 4.0 automation.

Market observers believe that the adoption of these advanced blanking lines will accelerate in regions such as Asia-Pacific and Europe, where automotive OEMs and steel service centers are investing heavily in new processing capacity. As the transition to electric vehicles (EVs) intensifies and the use of lightweight steel expands, demand for high-speed, high-precision blanking equipment is expected to grow significantly.

Experts suggest that this new generation of blanking lines represents more than just an equipment upgrade—it signals a strategic shift in how manufacturers approach sheet processing. With higher tonnage, greater versatility, and intelligent automation, the system is poised to become a cornerstone of next-generation steel processing facilities worldwide.
