Fan mount

Mechanical Engineering

1 Part | 1 Forming type | 9 Cutting tools

A fan mount of simple design, made up of a single component, which has high stability and low complexity. The fan is placed a few centimetres away from the wall to achieve the best airflow possible. The fan is fastened in its location with the help of slotted holes perforated with a punch.

Basic knowledge used on this part:

The MultiBend capabilities are used to the maximum. The bends are made in the indicated sequence. Knowledge of the limits of punching technology allows the complete part to be produced in a single machine.

This is the flat blank part before being folded in the punching machine.

Here you can see how the folds achieve its stability The edges are fixed with a slot so that the part has nearly no gaps. During manufacture, excess bending and the quality of the edges must be taken into account.
