Abstract: A progressive pressing method includes: a first bead molding step of molding a first bead having a length of a second predetermined distance extending in a longitudinal direction of the elongated metal plate, in a side part of a region which becomes a first product part of the elongated metal plate; a first conveying step of conveying the elongated metal plate in the longitudinal direction by a feed amount which is a first predetermined distance; and a second bead molding step of molding a second bead having a length of the second predetermined distance extending in the longitudinal direction of the elongated metal plate, so as to link with the first bead molded in the first bead molding step, in a side part of a region which becomes a second product part of the elongated metal plate, in which the second predetermined distance is longer than the first predetermined distance.

Abstract: In a manufacturing method for fuel cell separators having a seal part of convex shape that is pushed when superimposed with another separator, the method includes: a first pressing step of imparting work hardening to an entire region to become a convex shape configuring the seal part; and a second pressing step of press molding the region work hardened in the first pressing step so as to become a convex shape.

Abstract: In a progressive pressing device, a first state of a lifting part is a state not sandwiching an elongated metal plate between a lifting plate and an upper plate in a state in which a positioning pin and a positioning hole are not engaged, a second state is a state not sandwiching an elongated metal plate between a lifting plate and an upper plate in a state in which a positioning pin and a positioning hole are engaged, and a third state is a state sandwiching an elongated metal plate between a lifting plate and an upper plate in a state in which a positioning pin and a positioning hole are engaged.

Abstract: A manufacturing method for fuel cell separators by way of a progressive pressing method which molds a plurality of separator shaped parts in an elongated metal plate, the method having: a pressing step of forming a separator shaped part in an elongated metal plate by way of pressing; a trimming step of cutting loose the separator shaped part from the elongated metal plate by punching an outer peripheral part of the separator shaped part formed in the elongated metal plate in the same pressing direction as the pressing step; a lifting step of lifting up the elongated metal plate from which the separator shaped part was cut loose; and a separator shaped part conveying step of conveying the separator shaped part which was cut loose to a downstream side in the conveying direction, in the midst of the elongated metal plate being lifted up in the lifting step.
