The sheet metal forming by stamping is a way of working the plate and get parts for a wide range of sectors: appliances, telecommunications, automotive, hardware, industrial machinery, home furnishings and furniture, electrical components.... are only some of them.
Stamping consists on compressing a specific metal between two molds. There are two types of stamping: the progressive stamping and printing by percussion. In progressive type, compression is continuously applied while in percussion stamping, pressing is applied intermittently with a press or hammer.

Main advantages of the stamping are as follows: pieces can have complex shapes, there is a wide range of materials to work with, and producing a high quantity of parts does not suppose high cost and expensive labor. Additionally, the surface finish is good but can be further treated to improve some properties.
One of main disadvantages of this process is the fact that thickness of part may be limited. Moreover, it is a process with several stages and operations.

MATERIALS AND PRODUCTS

The materials available for this process are carbon steel, stainless steel, copper, brass, etc.
We have exclusive productive means for stamping all types of metals, with capacity to produce parts on a wide range of sizes and shapes for various applications in industry (automotive, electrical appliances, telecommunications, hardware, machinery, furniture, electrical components…).
The parts usually made by these processes are mechanical components and high strength parts in general, like reinforced doors, bumper, metal components for automotive, electrical appliances, etc.
In the pictures have shown some examples of parts obtained by stamping.
