Choose the Process Around the Part

Stamping uses a press and dedicated dies to cut or form sheet metal. The tooling approach should suit the geometry, material and expected production volume.

Specify the Material Before Tooling

Stainless Steel

For housings, clips and hardware where corrosion resistance and appearance matter. Confirm the grade and material condition.

Carbon Steel

For brackets, supports and structural hardware. Define the grade, thickness and any required protective finish.

Aluminum Alloys

For lightweight covers, panels and formed parts. Alloy and temper should be reviewed against the forming requirements.

Copper & Brass

For terminals, contacts and electrical hardware. Specify conductivity, mechanical requirements and plating where needed.

Inspection Matched to the Drawing

Confirm critical dimensions, acceptance criteria and required reports with your inquiry. The inspection plan can then follow the features that matter to the application.

• Incoming Material Verify the specified material and thickness, with documentation requirements agreed for the order.
• First Samples Check the identified dimensions, formed geometry and assembly interfaces before production approval.
• Production Checks Monitor agreed features such as hole position, formed dimensions, edge condition and appearance.
• Final Release Review the required finish, inspection records, quantity and packaging before shipment.
