I'm stamping slots into a 6005-T5 Aluminum extrusion and the part is warping as I stamp. I'm stamping through a .750" x .535" slot through .276" material, six slots at a time and the part 'bananas' on me.
The tooling vendor says it's caused by the stress in the part during aging, and the extrusion vendor says its the clearance between the punches and the die. I'm using a standard 10" clearance, so I feel confident my tooling is good.
Any stuggestions?
