Springback Springback occurs when formed sheet metal partially returns to its original shape after stamping. This dimensional inaccuracy compromises component assembly tolerances. Fixes: Apply overbending compensation through precise finite element simulations Implement multi-stage forming processes with intermediate stress relief Use BaoXuan‘s adaptive springback prediction software for die correction Material Thinning and Tearing Excessive stretching during […]

Drone fuselage metal parts installation requires precision for optimal performance. Follow this simplified DIY guide to ensure smooth assembly. Preparation Phase Gather essential tools and parts: screwdrivers, torque wrench, alignment tool, and metal components. For consistent quality, source components like screws from BaoXuan to avoid common fitment issues. Installation Steps Follow this step-by-step process: Disassemble […]

Controlling sheet metal fabrication costs is crucial for drone manufacturers balancing performance and budget. Implement these targeted strategies

Sheet metal welding for UAV manufacturing is notoriously expensive, driven by high material costs, labor-intensive processes, and specialized equipment needs. To combat this, focus on innovative and efficient approaches that slash expenses without compromising quality. Key Factors Driving Up Costs Common issues include excessive waste from manual techniques, high energy consumption, and frequent downtime due […]

My Hands-on Dive Into Aerospace Metal Shaping Trends Alright, so yesterday I decided to actually get my hands dirty with some aerospace-grade sheet metal. Kept seeing all these reports about trends – precision, new alloys, automation, green stuff. Wanted to feel it myself, not just read about it. Grabbed some scrap titanium alloy and aluminum […]

Okay, so here’s the deal. My drone build hit a wall, hard. Needed decent metal fuselage parts – like landing struts and frame connectors – that wouldn’t bankrupt me. Started digging online, and man, the sticker shock from most places was real. We’re talking hundreds for a couple of pieces. Nope. Time for a deep […]

So last week I decided to upgrade my DIY drone build with custom sheet metal brackets. Needed stuff that wouldn’t bend mid-flight, ya know? Started with some local CNC shops, but man… got parts back with edges so sharp they could slice bread. Not ideal when you’re messing with propellers! Testing Different Methods Like a […]

So I got this drone project going, needed a tough metal case ASAP. Wasted like a week digging around online myself, total headache. Turns out most places either had crazy long wait times or wanted a kidney for shipping. Starting the Supplier Hunt First thing, hit up AliExpress and Alibaba. Found tons of sellers, but […]

Alright folks, let’s talk drone chassis. Specifically, sheet metal ones. I was tinkering with a new quadcopter design last month and decided to ditch the usual 3D-printed parts for something tougher. Why? Kept cracking frames on hard landings. Sheet metal felt like the answer. Honestly, I didn’t know squat about working with it properly for […]

Precision metal fabrication is critical for UAV structural integrity and performance. Key considerations include: Material Selection Aluminum alloys (e.g., 6061-T6, 7075-T6) dominate airframes due to optimal strength-to-weight ratios. Magnesium alloys offer weight savings for non-critical components. Titanium (e.g., Grade 5) is preferred for high-stress, heat-sensitive areas despite higher costs. Material traceability is non-negotiable. Advanced Machining […]
