TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of ceramic part forming, in particular to a dry pressing method for ceramic part forming. BACKGROUND
[0002] Dry pressing or die pressing is a forming method of metal powder and ceramic powder, which fills dry powder blank into a metal mold cavity and applies pressure to make it into a dense blank. During the dry pressing process, the upper and lower molds are usually pressed together. During the dry pressing process, the internal gas is not easy to discharge, and air pits are easily left on the surface of the blank, resulting in scrap of the blank. When adding powder, the direct feeding has a large gap between the particles of the powder, and after extrusion, the compactness is poor, resulting in unqualified products. When the dry pressing is demolded, the dry pressing blank is easily separated and broken during demolding.
[0003] According to the dry pressing method and device for ceramic part forming of patent No. CN111941597A, during the filling process, the material powder for making ceramic blank is added to the lower mold. During the filling process, the swing motor works to drive the swing rod to rotate, which can push the fixed rod. After the swing rod and one end of the fixed rod are separated, the vibration rod is stretched under the stretching action of the return spring, and the knocking rod and the lower mold are knocked and touched, which realizes the vibration and flattening of the powder in the lower mold, improves the compactness of the powder, ensures the uniform distribution of the powder, and can be extruded more smoothly. However, during the knocking, the lower mold is in a fixed state, the internal powder is under small stress and cannot be effectively homogenized, and demolding is difficult. The structure is too complex. SUMMARY
