Our metal stamping service capabilities
Metal stamping is a manufacturing process in which coils or flat sheets of material are formed into specific shapes. Stamping encompasses multiple forming techniques such as blanking, punching, embossing, and progressive die stamping. We offer production volumes of over one million parts and maintain tight tolerances, all with competitive lead times.
Progressive Die Stamping
Uses multiple dies and steps to create deeper parts than would typically be achievable through single dies. Best suited for high volume and large automotive parts.
Deep Draw Stamping
Creates stampings with deep cavities, like enclosed rectangles. The extreme deformation compresses the metal into a more crystalline, rigid form.
Types of Metal Stamping
We offer single and multistage, progressive die, deep draw, fourslide, and other stamping methods to ensure the most effective method for manufacturing your products.
Progressive Die Stamping
Uses multiple dies and steps to create deeper parts. Best suited for high volume and large automotive parts.
Deep Draw Stamping
Creates stampings with deep cavities. The extreme deformation compresses metal into a rigid crystalline form.
Fourslide Stamping
Shapes parts from four axes for small intricate parts like electronics components and phone battery connectors.
Hydroforming
Uses high-pressure oil bladder to press metal into shape. Quick and accurate for multiple parts simultaneously.
Blanking & Fineblanking
Cuts pieces from sheet as initial step. Fineblanking makes precise cuts with smooth edges and flat surfaces.
Embossing & Coining
Creates three-dimensional designs raised above surface or through depressions. Coining hardens and removes burrs.

Metal Stamping Materials
We offer a wide range of materials for both standard and custom metal stampings.
Steel
CRS steel like 1008, 1010, or 1018. General-purpose material perfect for cold forming.
Stainless Steel
301, 304, and 316/316L. Excellent tensile strength and corrosion resistance at higher temperatures.
Copper
Including C110, which is a powerful conductor and easily formable.
Brass
Brass 230 (85/15) and 260 (70/30) are highly formable and corrosion-resistant.
We can stamp other sheet metal materials on request. Our stamping materials can be post-processed with bead blasting, powder coating, chem film, anodizing, and plating in gold, silver, or electroless nickel.
Production Volumes
We offer a wide variety of production volumes for sheet metal stamping.
Low Volume Production
Up to 100,000 units
Ideal for bridging development between prototypes and mass manufacturing. See how well a product will do on the market with low per-unit costs.
Medium Volume Production
100,000 - 1 million units
Offers flexibility of low-volume orders while enabling lower price per part and lower up-front costs for tooling.
High Volume Production
Over 1 million parts
Incredibly cost-effective for high volumes, driving down unit costs stemming from the price of creating custom tooling.
Short Run Stamping
Limited tool revisions
Overall costs will be less since you won't need to change processes or equipment. Best for parts requiring less flexibility.
Advantages of Metal Stamping
- Complex forms, such as contours
- High volumes (from thousands to millions of parts per year)
- Fineblanking allows for forming of thick metal sheets
- Low cost-per-piece prices
- Consistent quality and precision
Considerations
- Longer lead times on first parts (time needed to create dies)
- Tooling, check fixtures, and non-renewable engineering drive upfront costs
- Die design may need multiple iterations before production commences
