Progressive Die Stamping

Progressive die stamping is a versatile metalworking process that utilizes multiple workstations to perform different operations. This process manufactures metal components for a broad range of industries, from miltary/defense to food and beverage.

Sun Fast International works with metal stamping suppliers to provide outsourcing services for progressive metal die stamping.

The Progressive Metal Die Stamping Process

A flat strip of metal is placed into a stamping press. Using a die, the strip of metal is fed through the stamping machine using a feeding mechanism, moving the piece one station at a time. The metal piece is passed through a series of workstations that cut, bend, emboss, and otherwise modify the piece of metal until the final shape is completed.
