A steel strip is fed and compressed between a driving roller and a compression roller to generate a stress greater than a yield stress in the steel strip and to elongate one periphery portion of the steel strip, which is on one side, more than the other periphery portion of the steel strip, which is on the other side, in a sending direction. The compression roller includes a first contact portion and a second contact portion. The second contact portion extends from an end of the first contact portion in the axial direction of the compression roller. The end of the first contact portion has an outer diameter less than an outer diameter of the second contact portion.

A protrusion forming device includes a holding portion holding an object that is be processed, a tool bit having a cutting portion capable of cutting an object held by a holding portion, and a drive portion capable of driving the tool bit. The tool bit is movable along a cut-in pathway so that the cutting portion is inserted into the object. The cutting portion is movable along a further-cut pathway so as to form a protrusion part that is cut in a linear shape and is connected to the object. The tool bit continuously contacts the protrusion part while moving along a forming pathway such that the protrusion part extends perpendicular to an outer surface of the object.

A press machine able to press-work a strip-shaped material during which it can prevent the strip-shaped material from moving or warping or can prevent the strip-shaped material from partially cracking and a processing method using that press machine. A multi-process press machine provided with a drive source M, a camshaftdriven by the drive source M and having a plurality of independent first cams, andand second cams, and, a plurality of die sets each comprised of a pair of a punchand a dieconnected with the first cam, a material holding memberpressing the strip-shaped material W against the diewhen connecting with and pressing the second cam, and a basesupporting the dies.

Multi-process press machine and press-working method

In a method of forming a hole on a work piece, a laser beam is directed from a laser head to a predetermined portion of the work piece to form a pilot hole having a first surface condition, and then the predetermined portion of the work piece is punched using a die and a punch having a cross-section greater than a cross-section of the pilot hole. Thus, a finished hole having a cross-section greater than the cross-section of the pilot hole is formed over the pilot hole. The finished hole has a second surface condition, and the second surface condition is formed by transforming the first surface condition by the punch to have a precise dimension.

Method and apparatus for forming hole

It is an object of the invention to provide a method of working an injection hole of an electromagnetic type fuel injection valve so that when extrusion by using a punch is adopted, the punch does not break, even in the case where a central axis line of the injection hole of the electromagnetic type fuel injection valve is inclined to a line perpendicular to a face of a plate-like material to be punched. A front end, tapered portion of the punch is inclined in a direction opposed to a plate-like material relative to a central axis line of the punch to facilitate the punch along a sliding, inner face of a punch holder. While achieving a reduction in production cost, the divergent-shaped injection hole can accurately be formed in the plate-like material. A side force (Fs) is produced when the front end portion of the punch impinges on the plate-like material. The side force (Fs) is canceled by a reaction force (Fr) on a side opposed to the plate-like material and a bending moment potentially causing breakage of the punch is avoided.
