Metal stamping production runs can happen at varying amounts, with prototype parts in the hundreds to large-scale runs in the hundreds of thousands. If high-volume services are what your team needs, consider utilizing progressive tooling die services.
A single die is all that’s needed for progressive stamping, and the healthier the die is, the more stamping runs you and your manufacturer can perform. Winco Stamping highlights key considerations to make before utilizing progressive tooling die services.
The Benefits of Progressive Tooling Die Services
Progressive tooling die services are best suited for specific manufacturing applications, and that starts with high-volume metal stamping.
- Progressive dies work best for high-volume applications because tooling costs gradually go down over the service life of the die itself. Costs per piece also decrease over time.
- Parts that feature multiple geometries throughout the design, such as multiple bends or punches, or a sequence where multiple presses or secondary operations would be required to effectively manufacture the stamped parts. Progressive dies consolidate these processes into a single run.
- Progressive tooling die services allow for tight tolerances and better consistency because of the repeatability and ability to maintain those tolerances.
- When your company needs to minimize manual part handling, eliminate multiple setups, and work in process operations, progressive tooling die services offer a simple and fast setup. And once the process begins, there aren’t many extra steps that need to be performed.
- Highly efficient and fast turnaround times, because a single press can handle the workload of multiple presses.
- Reduced cost per part over time is achievable after the initial costs.
- Strip layouts reduce scrap material, which lowers material costs and enhances efficiency.
- Progressive tooling die services provided long-term reliability through durable tooling that supports long production runs and minimal downtime.
