Abstract World-wide blanking is the most popular technique for producing the non-oriented electrical steel lamination. However, blanking has a great effect on magnetic property and mechanical property, such as the introduction of uneven residual stress, the deterioration of magnetic properties and the increase of micro-hardness. In this research, non-oriented electrical steel sheets are investigated via blanking test by 3 kinds of punches. The blanking edges are examined by the optical microscopy and micro-hardness test to visualize the distribution of micro-hardness. The magnetic properties are also measured. The results show that the blanking clearance has a great influence on magnetic properties and mechanical properties of the blanked material.
