Basics of Sheet Metal Stamping

Stamping is the general name of sheet metal pressing to produce sheet metal parts from sheet metal blanks.

Stamping processes are widely used in the the automotive and aerospace due to speed and low cost.

On a daily basis, millions of sheet metal parts are produced worldwide by stamping operations. This is so because complex shaped parts can be produced quickly defect-free at low cost using this technique.

Therefore the stamping processes are widely used in the automotive, aerospace, and appliance industries due to its high volume productivity, low manufacturing costs, and high strength to weight ratios of the final products.
