apparently neither do the Chinese factories that purport to make the stuff. Does your Kanji indicate Chinese? Otherwise, I would be happy to share the secrets. In Japan, Germany and the US we have precision methods.
I would assume they weld it with alternating lines then it becomes a honeycomb when it's pulled. The welds would have to be precise so it only welds to the next layer and not 2
After the panels are bonded and cut to rough size how flat are they? What is the tolerance for thickness or flatness. If a company were to buy these in qty what is the tolerance between orders? How do they hold up to dents or deformation
hey @hatchbackhound Tolerance for thickness depend mainly on honeycomb core block slicers; our current ver. machines cut at a tolerance of within 0.05mm over the whole cutting plane. Tolerance between orders should be within 2 orders of magnitude of the cutting tolerance (0.1mm) as thickness is set by servo motor+screw linear guide machanism (could test to verify my guess) Expanded honeycomb are more susceptible to dents during transportation and handling; unexpanded honeycomb strips for transportation could help solve this issue.
I have several questions. Can these sheets be butt welded together without the bonding material contaminating the weld? Can we by these in the US/Florida? And do they come in 60"+ panels?
Hi. The aluminium honeycomb panels shown in this video are the most common type, formed by adhesive bonding, we have not had projects for welded type joints for this type of panels yet, though you are welcomb to experiment. The aluminium honeycomb panel usually used for welding is made by brazing methods, a.k.a no glue used in the whole panel. Which we could also supply. The cost for brazed aluminium honeycomb panels are sigficantly higher, hence it's not as popular as this generic ones. You could purchase our products via HYCOMB USA, they are based in Florida:)
@@hycomb4670thank you. I'm a welding teacher at a technical college. If you would be interested in sending us any scraps, we would love to experiment with them.
Thank you. You helped me understand the process.
thanks mate
I really don't understand how it goes from sheetmetal to the folded piece before expansion

@@gendaminoru3195 Uh, I'm American, just learning Chinese...
Thanks for the comment. Definitely will include that bit of missing information in the coming videos.

Where can I buy these panels?
Can you share the name of the background music?
Hi, the song is called "Other Scenario" by Stanley Gurvich.
