Abstract
Provided is a burring processing method, which is a method for forming a buffing processed portion including a raised portion and a curved portion in a metal component having a pilot hole formed therein, the method being characterized by including: a preforming step of enlarging a diameter of the pilot hole, moving an edge portion of the pilot hole relative to the metal component in a first direction of a thickness direction of the metal component in a first range around the pilot hole of the metal component, and forming the whole first range into a preformed portion raised from the metal component in the first direction; and a main forming step of deforming the preformed portion in a second direction opposite to the first direction, forming a second range on an outer diameter side of the preformed portion to have the same height as the first range in the first direction, and forming part of a third range on an inner diameter side of the preformed portion from the second range to be part of the curved portion and the raised portion.
