stone carving: refers to the plastic art with stereoscopic visual art as the carrier. Stone Carving is a kind of plastic arts. Also known as carving, it is the general term for the three production methods of carving, engraving and sculpture. The following will mainly introduce the manufacturing process of Stone Garden Statues for you.
1. It is cutting material. Generally, the tool used is electric scissors, which can cut thin plates below 2mm, but the flatness is not good after cutting. There is also a panel cutting machine, which can cut both thick and thin panels, but it can only cut straight lines, and it is powerless when encountering arcs. If you want to cut the Stone Garden Statues material into a flat shape and a variety of shapes, you need to use a plasma cutting machine. Plasma cutting machines can use high plasma to cut metals that are difficult to cut with ordinary oxygen cutting. Because the electric current and gas are fed into the water-cooled special nozzle, a fierce compressed arc is formed to form a high-temperature plasma flow, so the cut out stone garden sculpture material is neat and does not deform. Be careful, your hands must be steady when cutting the material, otherwise the material will be cut. After the material is cut, it must be planed according to the shape required by the work. Don't leave any flaws on the surface of the board, so as not to leave defects after the work is polished.
2. Knocking is a way to make carbon steel stone sculpture and stone garden sculptures. Carbon steel plates and Stone Garden Statues are not knocked on the mold, but are pressed out according to the different shapes of each part of the plaster model, and are consciously beaten according to the ups and downs of the plaster model. Knock the ribs where the ribs should be, and you can hit any tangible and solid objects, and then take the knocked Stone Garden Statues to the mold for comparison, and think that the shape is correct and can be completely closed with the model, and then these sporadic pieces Carbon steel plates and Stone Garden Statues are welded piece by piece from top to bottom, and each piece must be adjusted against the mold. The texture of the appearance of each Stone Garden Statues must remain the same, which must be forged while making the shape go up. You can also forge the points first and then cut the material. When forging points, use the round head of the hammer to forge evenly and regularly in rows. The width and distance and force should be the same. Don't knock randomly, otherwise the overall sense of the stone carving will be damaged.
3. After the shape casting is correct, they must be welded together according to the requirements of the work (with electric welding and argon arc welding). For electric welding, electric welding machine, welding handle and welding rod should be prepared. Because a high degree of light is generated during welding, it is strongly irritating to the eyes, so wear a protective cover to prevent being injured by strong light. Welding with electric welding, the Stone Garden Statues is deformed to a greater degree when exposed to heat, so some measures should be taken, such as spot welding first or cooling while welding. Argon arc welding is superior to electric welding. It is a gas maintenance arc welding method. Argon gas is used to protect the metal melted by the arc at the joint to prevent the harmful effects of oxygen and nitrogen in the air. Argon arc welding can be divided into melting electrode argon arc welding, non-melting electrode arc welding or tungsten argon arc welding according to the different electrode materials used. In the welding of Stone Garden Statues, tungsten argon arc welding is commonly used to obtain good welding quality. Because it is not easy to conduct heat, the deformation of stainless steel is relatively high.
4. To polish carbon steel plate and stainless steel, first use a grinding wheel to smooth the weld seams and excess areas of the work, and then use a soft wheel (cloth wheel) for polishing. When polishing, the work is coated with polishing paste to add lubrication, so that the work can be thrown out Brighter, thus giving a good visual aesthetic feeling.
5. Larger Stone Garden Statues with simple shapes do not need to be welded. You can directly make a steel skeleton according to the shape and proportion of the work, drill holes in the designed position with an electric drill, and fix the Stone Garden Statues on the skeleton with rivets. This method requires that the calculation of the proportion of the skeleton is very accurate, and the seams must be aligned very accurately, otherwise there will be differences and the expected effect will not be achieved.
