Working Of Metal Stamping Process And It’s Methods


Working Of Metal Stamping Process And It’s Methods


Metal Stamping is a system of processes used in automotive industry to focus on metal manufacturing. The process is to make the metal components into different moulded designs and sizes. The process is mainly said to be the art of metal working.

The process is mainly responsible for a method of operation such as punching, blanking, piercing, drawing, bending, flanging, embossing, forming and coining along with the metals as needed. These stages of operations with stamping are carried out until the metal forms desired shape and respective material is achieved.

The metals are being cut, formed and shaped by feeding and pressing the metals between tonnage stamping dies. This is majorly done in mass production industries and the parts are developed with this process and it generally consumes low cost value.

Metal Stamping

Progressive Metal Stamping is a form of metalworking method, in which the operations of stamping are made with a single machine. Using a progressive Metal Stamping die and reciprocating machine press stamping operation is done. The progressive metal stamping die is placed into a reciprocating Metal Stamping press and as the press moves up, the top die also moves along with it and this allows the material to feed into press. And when the press moves down, the die closes and performs the stamping operation. With each stroke of the press, the desired metal is carried out from the die of Stamping On Metal.

In every automotive industry, the quality assurance is being employed before and after the metal stamping process activity. General requirements needed for quality assurance separated into two categories. The pre-processing includes operator safety and machine press precision and post-processing requirements includes product dimensions, hardness and other quality conformances. And finally the requirement process is ensured by the technology called stamping stimulation. The stamping stimulation process prompts product defects and predicts lead time and production cost.
