DieMan44

Mechanical

I am trying to design a simple blanking die that trims the scrap from the coil edges and shear off the blank. My problem is when I do my scrap design, I can only get one side of the scrap to come in. When I leave a gap between the two blanks, the entire scrap region highlights. But I don't want a gap and waste material. Can anyone with PDW experence help me?
