Metal Stamping Fundamentals

Metal stamping is a process that transforms flat metal sheets into specific shapes. It's a complicated procedure that involves a variety of metal forming processes, such as blanking, punching, bending, and piercing. Metal stamping services are provided by hundreds of firms across the United States to supply components for sectors such as automotive, aerospace, medical, and others. As global markets expand, the demand for huge numbers of sophisticated parts that can be manufactured quickly is increasing.

For this high-volume manufacturing requirement, metal stamping offers a quick and cost-effective option. Manufacturers looking for metal components stamped for a project seeking for three key characteristics: High-quality and long-lasting, Cost-effective, and Quick Response Time.

The following document demonstrates best practices and formulae used in the metal stamping design process, as well as suggestions for incorporating cost-cutting factors into components.

Basics of Stamping

Stamping, often known as pressing, is the process of feeding flat sheet metal into a stamping press, either in coil or blank form. A tool and die surface form the metal into the desired shape in the press. To form the metal, stamping processes, such as punching, blanking, bending, coining, embossing, and flanging are employed.

Stamping professionals must use CAD/CAM engineering technology to design the tooling before the material can be formed. To ensure that each punch and bend maintains proper clearance and, as a result, optimal part quality, these designs must be as precise as possible. Because a single tool 3D model might have hundreds of pieces, the design process is frequently lengthy and complicated. A manufacturer can finish the tool's production using a range of machining, grinding, wire EDM, and other manufacturing processes once the design is finalized.

Custom metal stamping of medical parts

As we provide stamping parts, some medical tools are also available in our services. Leading with the high quality and variety of parts, we are offering several parts to our customers. Creating medical devices that address clinical demands, human error, and patient safety is a difficult task. Medical device design is getting increasingly complicated and technologically difficult as device makers look to the consumer electronics sector for design and usability inspiration. Miniaturization is still a hot trend in medical device design, and more than ever, speed to market is a critical competitive advantage for new product launches.

Medical Parts

Surgical devices are as diverse and specialized as the medical field itself. Stainless steel and machined aluminum were once thought to be the only materials that could be used to make biocompatible medical devices that were FDA approved. Die castings, on the other hand, are used in a wide range of medical equipment nowadays. For components that come into contact with the human body, stainless steel, and machined aluminum aren't the only options. Where medical equipment must interface with tissues or physiological fluids, a range of special coatings can be added to die castings to fulfill stringent testing and validation needed by the FDA/ EMEA.

Intelligent treatment and diagnostic equipment used to screen, assess, and diagnose patients must be developed to be simple and effective to use in the lab or at the patient's home. Offering state-of-the-art equipment with ergonomic design involves taking into account durability, aesthetics, and weight in addition to function for device producers.

Electronic medical equipment, like the electronic components it contains, is becoming more sophisticated and powerful. It is critical to keep these devices cold to ensure their functionality and longevity. Heat sinks with high performance protect electronics from overheating and damaging or destroying medical equipment. Die-cast housings are highly robust and may be designed to include heat sinks.
