Stamping Processes

Types of Metal Stamping

Process 01

Progressive Die Stamping

Progressive die stamping uses multiple workstations, each performing a different operation to incrementally produce a metal component. This fast, cost-efficient process moves the metal part from station to station along its stock strip, enabling precise positioning for optimal quality control. We use progressive die stamping presses with capacities ranging from 22 to 400 tons to achieve tight tolerances of ±0.0005 inches.

Process 02

Deep Drawn Stamping

Deep-drawn stamping is highly precise. The stamping press draws a metal sheet radially into the die cavity, shaping the material into a hollow three-dimensional form—often cylindrical—without forming any joints or seams. Offering repeatable accuracy, the deep-drawing process also produces stronger metals through strain hardening during production. Our stamping presses can produce large, very deep-stamped components using this process.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is metal stamping?

Metal stamping is a fast, cost-effective manufacturing process that uses tooling and high-tonnage presses to form sheet metal into complex shapes. Dies cut, pierce, bend, coin or draw the material into the finished part, which makes stamping well suited to repeatable production from prototype to high volume.

What types of metal stamping does Manor Tool offer?

We run progressive die stamping, deep drawn stamping, compound die, pierce die and coining, with features such as embossing, countersinking and in-die tapping. Tooling for every process is designed and built in house.

What tolerances can metal stamping hold?

Our presses hold tolerances to ±0.0005 in (±0.0127 mm). The achievable tolerance on a given part depends on the material, thickness and feature type, so we review critical dimensions during design and engineering before tooling is built.

What metals can be stamped?

We stamp aluminum, brass, carbon steel, stainless steel, copper, nickel, beryllium copper and magnesium, as well as specialty materials such as plastics, leather and phenolic kraft paper. Material can be supplied as coil, flat stock, extrusions, tubing, thin material or wire.

What size parts can Manor Tool stamp?

Our presses range from 22 to 400 tons and handle parts up to 48 in long and 96 in wide, from light gauge to heavy gauge work.

Can you handle both prototypes and high-volume production?

Yes. We support everything from prototypes and short runs to high-volume production. Because our tooling is built in house, a job can move from short-run fabrication to a progressive die as volumes grow.

What files do you need to quote a stamped part?

We accept DWG, DXF, STEP, IGES, PRT, MasterCam (MC10+), PDF, JPG and TIFF files. Send your print along with material, annual volume and any finishing requirements, and request a quote.

What certifications does Manor Tool hold?

Manor Tool is ISO 9001:2015 certified, ITAR compliant, Mil-Spec and PED capable, and RoHS compliant.
