METAL STAMPING EXPLAINED
Pressing or punching either coils or sheets. Metal is pressed between a top and bottom tool to create identical metal parts. Stamping is appropriate for small and large runs and may comprise one or several steps or developments, such as forming, blanking, bending, punching, embossing, coining, and flanging. Material is advanced through a tool, and consistent pressure is applied to create the finished parts. Stamping is a low-cost and high-speed manufacturing process of making large quantities of metal parts.

TYPES OF STAMPING
The two most common stamping die types are progressive and transfer die stamping. Both methods should be considered when designing and manufacturing a part. Distinctive design requirements, quantity, and tolerances are evaluated to make a suitable recommendation for the customer.
PROGRESSIVE STAMPING
A process that uses a coil or strip to move parts through a series of individual workstations, each station performing its task on the workpiece.

Transfer die stamping cuts the blank and transfers the metal from each station mechanically or by hand.
