Custom Metal Stamping Part Manufacturing
In the metal stamping process, cold sheet metal is placed into a machine called a “stamping press” or “power press”. A metal die applies significant pressure to shape the material into the desired form.
Stamping Processes
Punching: The stamping machine punches the shape from the surrounding material.
Blanking: Blanking involves cutting out the precise shape from a flat sheet metal material.
Embossing: Embossing is the process that creates raised and shallow features onto the material.
Bending: The metal is bent in one direction and repeated to create a specific shape.
