S11: Solving Progressive Die Problems
*This conference session requires registration and payment. Click here to register/add session to your registration.
Progressive dies are routinely reworked, modified or adjusted in the press when production problems occur or quality issues present themselves. In many instances, the die is not the root cause of the problem and, therefore, the problems resurface or new problems are created. This presentation provides key elements for solving progressive die problems, tips for success and validating solutions.
