Abstract: In This Paper we present a study of Split Punch and Die of Sheet Metal Blanking Process for Length Component. The Component with 740mm length is considered and Analysis of Punch and Die was carried out for study. The Split Punch and Die techniques introduced is being studied in this paper and it is the most applicable technique for the lengthy components. Sheet metal parts are widely used in products of high complexity and precision such as vehicles, aircraft and other automobile related products. Therefore, the press process has been identified as one of the most important manufacturing processes. During Blanking Process the force acting is more between the punch and die, failure or damage may occurs as reaches some production, so need to replace the punch and die as damages occurs. For small components punch and die can easily replaceable, easy maintenance, easy handling, less time consuming and low cost. As we consider lengthy components punch and die the manufacturing, heat treatment, maintenance, handlings need more time and cost is also very high. By integrating the split method of punch and die will be highly beneficial also helps to reduce the cost and time for heat treatment, easy replaceable of damaged parts, easy maintenance, easy handling, good life and durability can be achieved
