Stamping
Stamping is a versatile and innovative tool that allows you to add a touch of elegance and personalization to any project. Whether you are a seasoned crafter or just starting out, this incredible stamping set will take your creativity to new heights.
During sheet metal stamping, a press feeds metal into a die, shaping it with immense force, measured in tons. Unlike some specialized processes, sheet metal stamping is typically conducted without heat, utilizing a cold-forming technique. Despite the absence of heat, the part may emerge hot due to the friction generated between the metal and the die from the press force.
Stamping Materials
Though virtually any metal, including gold, can be stamped, sheet metal is by far the most common. The type of metal used depends on the type of part that’s needed and its desired properties, such as corrosion- and heat-resistance.
Stamping can produce parts from the following materials:
- Stainless steel
- Low- and high-carbon steel
- Aluminum
- Titanium
- Brass
- Bronze
- Copper
- Inconel
- Nickel alloys

The Application of product
In the stamping process, metal is transformed into complex parts using highly specialized computer-aided drafting and manufacturing programs. Stamping produces superior, resilient, heavy-duty parts quickly and efficiently. The results are so precise, they’re typically more reliable and consistent than manual machining.
The following industries use components that are created via stamping:
- Automotive
- Renewable energy
- Medical
- Industrial
- Hardware
- Home Improvement
This list is by no means exhaustive. There is a considerable demand for sheet metal stamping, and the range of industries that depend on it is vast.
The Production Process of product
Metal stamping involves three key components: metal, die, and press machine. Despite the simplicity of these elements, the process often requires multiple steps to achieve the final part. Here's a brief guide to some common metal stamping processes:
Forming:
- Transformation of metal into various shapes by applying force.
- Multiple operations can convert simple shapes into complex ones.
Blanking:
- Basic technique where the die cuts the material to create a shape called a blank.
- The blank can be the final part (fully finished blank) or proceed to the forming step.
Drawing:
- Involves carefully drawing material into a cavity to create vessels or deep depressions.
- Tension is applied, minimizing material stretching.
- Used in crafting sinks, cooking equipment, and vehicle oil pans.
Piercing:
- Opposite of blanking; material around the punched area is utilized.
- Similar to cutting biscuits from rolled-out dough, where the cutouts are discarded, and the hole-riddled remains are the desired outcome.
