Step-By-Step Mastery: The Journey Through Progressive Press Operations
Progressive press operations refer to a metalworking process used in manufacturing to efficiently produce large quantities of components with precision and consistency. This process involves using a progressive die — a specialized tool incorporating multiple stations. Each station performs a specific procedure on a metal sheet as it moves through the die, gradually taking shape […]
From Flat to Fantastic: The Transformative Power of Sheet Metal Stamping
Click to Expand Metal stamping is a process to create precise and complex components and parts. It involves placing a flat sheet (often steel or aluminum) into a press, which applies force to shape the material into the desired form. This process is highly efficient for mass-producing automotive parts, appliance tools, and electronics enclosures because […]
Sculpting the Future: The Intricacies of Metal Drawing
Click to Expand Metal drawing is a metalworking process where a workpiece is pulled through a die to reduce its diameter and increase its length. It involves applying tensile forces to the material, causing it to elongate and take on a desired shape. This technique is commonly used to produce wires, tubes, and various metal […]
How to Choose the Right Metal Stamping Press
Metal stamping is essential in the manufacturing operations of a wide range of businesses. Once the dies, and presses are made, the repetitive and readily automated stamping process makes manufacturing components incredibly efficient and cost-effective since vast numbers of parts are produced over time. Buying a metal stamping press for a company is a big […]
Reshoring and Nearshoring
Click to Expand Reshoring and nearshoring are two approaches that have gained significant attention in recent years as alternatives to offshore manufacturing. With changing global dynamics and increasing concerns about supply chain disruptions, companies consider reshoring or nearshoring as strategies to mitigate risks and improve their operations. This article will explore the advantages of reshoring […]
What To Look For in a Die Press
Die or stamping presses are machines used to shape metal, plastic, and other materials through die stamping and cutting. They are commonly used in manufacturing to produce various products, from automotive parts to electrical components. Trans-Matic has presses of varying designs and supports any product design needs! Factor 1: Tonnage The tonnage of a die […]
Why You May Need a Custom Metal Stamping
Click to Expand Metal stampings are fundamental to many industries’ products. Because of its accuracy and the ease with which it can swiftly and cheaply duplicate components, many industries — from food service providers to defense contractors — depend on metal stampings to create the parts and products they demand. This article will discuss how […]
Metal Stamping for Prototypes
Click to Expand Prototyping is a critical step in product development, allowing designers and manufacturers to test and refine their designs before mass production begins. Stamping is a manufacturing process that involves shaping metal into various components using a stamping press machine. To achieve this, manufacturers need to create a tool called a die, which […]
Deep Draw Stamping for the Automotive Industry
The automotive industry relies on durable parts to prevent leaks, breakage, or failure in rugged applications.
What’s the Difference? Progressive Die Stamping vs. Transfer Die Stamping
When companies require metal forming to manufacture parts, they can choose from multiple techniques, two of which are progressive die and transfer die stamping. Evaluating an application and needed part volume will help businesses select the method that is best suited for their project. Learn more about these stamping processes and their unique benefits. Progressive […]
