Metal Stamping and Deep Drawn Stamping Services
Metal stamping can be used to form sheet metal into a variety of designs. This process uses a stamping die or series of dies to cut, pierce, and otherwise shape the metal. The stamping process can occur in several different ways, including a single process with one or more dies, a series of progressive dies in the same machine, or in transfer stamping where the workpiece is moved between dies on separate machines.
With prototyping, metal stamping, and contract manufacturing capabilities, Manor Tool & Manufacturing Company is a leading custom component manufacturer serving customers in the automotive aftermarket, construction, consumer goods, and electronics industry, and more. Committed to serving major industrial sectors, including the solar and wind energy sectors, we handle all aspects of a project, from stamping and coating to assembly.
Benefits of Metal Stamping
Metal stamping offers a wide range of benefits that make it a useful process for the mass production of many designs. Some of the primary benefits include:
- Cost Effective
While initial tooling may come with elevated upfront costs, the overall cost of metal stamping can be significantly reduced for larger production runs. Since the dies can be reused for each process, larger orders gain significant economies of scale. We answer the question “How Much Does Metal Stamping Cost?” frequently at Manor Tool. Our engineers and tool makers work with you to optimize performance vs. investment.
- Versatile
Metal stamping enables the production of a wide range of designs, including those with complex geometries and high precision requirements. Metal stamping can also create more geometries in a single process than many other metal forming methods.
- Quick Setup
The lead times for metal stamping are relatively short, which means production can begin quickly.
- Precision
The dies and tooling used in metal stamping offer extremely precise cuts and shapes. In addition, metal stamping is a cold forming operation, which means no additional heat is applied to the metal during the stamping process. This avoids warping and improves the accuracy of the final part.
Additional benefits provided by metal stamping include:
- Consistent high-quality parts
- Fast turnaround
- Reduced scrap metal
- Long production runs
- High repeatability
- Low cost per part
Industries
A variety of industries use metal stamping to create parts and components. Some of these industries include:
- Aerospace
Aerospace applications require highly specialized parts with consistent repeatability and quality. The precision offered by metal stamping makes it an ideal solution for producing a wide range of aerospace components.
- Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEM)
OEMs tend to produce machinery and parts in high volumes. Metal stamping provides a fast, cost-effective method for high-volume production.
- Oil and Gas
The oil and gas sector durable parts for use as connectors, seals, and a range of other applications. Metal stamping offers the precision and quality necessary to support safe operation in this demanding industry.
- Medical
There is no room for error in medical devices and other medical applications. As such, the medical sector relies on metal stamping to produce consistent high-quality components and tools.
- Fluid Power
Fluid power applications require a range of high-quality washers, flanges, and other parts that can withstand the pressure ranges and corrosiveness of the application’s environment. Metal stamping offers an ideal solution for fabricating these essential components.
