What is High-Volume Metal Stamping?
At its core, metal stamping is the process of converting flat metal sheets into specific shapes. It is a highly used process that can be found in countless products. A typical car is likely to have multiple parts that were made with metal stamping. In addition to consumer products, metal stamping is widely used in industrial machinery.
The exact process of metal stamping will vary a great deal based on the product and material used. As an example, fourslide metal stamping will allow for more intricate forms. On the other hand, progressive die stamping will provide better cost savings when used at high volumes.
What Are the Advantages of High-volume Production Metal Stamping?
High-volume stamping is advantageous for many industries. Notable examples include automotive, appliances, and other large-scale sectors. Key advantages of high-production metal stamping include fast production speed, reduced scrap material, fast setup, and more geometric options with a single process. High-volume metal stamping also offers great repeatability, longer production runs, and a favorable cost-per-unit ratio.
Aranda guarantees that clients will be satisfied with our speed, reliability, and attention to detail. We can handle just about any high-volume precision stamping, including Body-in-White components, complicated tight tolerance parts, battery contacts, and much more.
