Metal Stamping

Metal stamping is the process of forming flat, sheet steel into simple or complex components.

In order to produce successful metal stamping, fabricators must remember some core fundamentals throughout this complex process:

• Do understand the possibilities and limitations
• Don't overdesign; metal stamping tolerances must be reasonable and not too tight
• Do design properly by considering feasibility and service life
• Don't designate every dimension as a "critical dimension"
• Do match material with design characteristics for ideal metal stamping
• Do avoid secondary operations that will compromise integrity
• Don't expect secondary operations such as heat treating, painting and plating to compensate for a flawed metal stamping design
• Do remember specific forming characteristics for a given metal stamping material
• Don't expect a metal stamping tolerances to resemble those of a machined casting

Keeping these factors in mind will result in more successful metal stamping and a longer-lasting product. Contact info@wiscoind.com or 800-999-4726 for professional metal stamping from ISO 9001: 2000 with Design-certified Wisco Industries, Inc.
