Is 3 Clips Enough?

<p>[QUOTE="Conder101, post: 5592943, member: 66"]What I don't understand about these is how they can occur. A single curved clip I can see. Two curved clips I can see, two curved and one straight clip I can believe. But I can't visualize anyway to create a planchet with three curved clips. Well one way but it makes no sense. Punch out a row of blanks, advance the strip a little less than the diameter of the blanks and punch a row, then BACK UP the strip and punch a row from the area between the two previously punched rows. But the idea of backing the strip up in the press seems a bit absurd to me. Yes you might be able to do that if your were working with short strips of metal, but they are working with strips hundreds of feet long.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
