What is progressive stamping

Progressive stamping, also known as pressing, is usually carried out on a cold metal sheet. Various forming procedures are involved in the manufacturing process, such as punching, bending, and forming. Based on the specific structure of each of these processes, they may be a single step or a series of steps. 

In short, progressive stamping combines punching, coining, bending, and some other methods of modifying metal sheet material with automatic feeding equipment so that it is not only fast but also more stable.

How Progressive Stamping works?

Progressive stamping is a metalworking method that modifies metal raw material combined with an automatic feeding system. To withstand high shock loads, maintain a sharp cutting edge, and withstand abrasive forces, dies that are designed to produce large, thin, and complex sheet metal parts is called progressive tooling, a process that is perfectly suited for continuous sheet metal production are typically made of tool steel.

A variety of metal materials are in stock ready for your custom parts, such as stainless steel, steel, aluminum, brass, and copper.

For progress stamping, a stamping die is required, and the cost will vary from $ 1000 to $10,000. Stamping dies can be used to produce millions of parts for your custom products.

One is required to punch out specific features of a part like adding a hole or slot into a part. In contrast, sheet metal stamping is applied to produce an entire part with all features. They are both used for different purposes (prototype vs. mass production) and require different types of equipment.
