Overview: Metal Stamping
What is metal stamping?
The process consists of placing a cold
sheet of metal into a press to create a
shape. A stationary and moving
mechanism are required to form what’s
considered a part. Both blank and coil
material can be processed using a
stamping press and die.
Metal Stamping Processes
Supported
Progressive, transfer, tandem

What Is the Transfer Process?
Metal Stamping Transfer Process
The transfer approach is an automated
stamping technique in which one single
piece is altered using several operation
modes across multiple stations. A metal
blank is placed at the first station to cut.
Then it is transferred with mechanical
fingers from station to station until the part
is completed.
Why even use it?
A large or small custom, complex part
can be produced with transfer stamping
and less material waste. Process is ideal
for low volume production.
Possible Applications
Frames, structural
components, shells, tube
applications.

Operation Modes Supported
Operation Modes Supported
Trim-Removing excess material from a part.
Pierce-Creates hole in a part.
Form-This operation shapes the part.
Draw-Stretches and bends part in a particular direction to create
grooves or deep impressions.
Mark ID and date-Embeds key part identification information into
the part for tracking.
Restrike-Additional strike performed to same location of initial
hole or dimension to ensure accurate positioning.

How Are Complex Parts Created?
How Are Complex Parts Created?
The transfer process relies on operations, cams,
dies and stations to create complex parts. Changes
performed on parts are staged to better distribute
workload.
Cams enable proper positioning of parts at various
angles to complete operations like trimming.
Stations are developed for each operation and are
organized to accommodate serial changes to parts.
Operations are matched to stations based on
specifications.
A die or multiple dies are positioned on a common
plate.
