Customized Multi-Station High-Precision Automotive-Grade Progressive Stamping Die for Automotive Parts

Suitable for reinforcement plates, support structures, mounting components and other structural sheet metal parts.

Designed for high-volume production of mounting brackets, support brackets, engine brackets, seat brackets and other formed metal components.

Progressive tooling can integrate multiple operations required for seat mechanisms, mounting plates, supports and reinforcement components.

Suitable for terminals, connectors, shielding components and precision conductive parts made from copper, brass or other conductive alloys.

Applicable to clips, retainers, mounting plates, covers, brackets and other small-to-medium sheet metal components.

Progressive dies can also be developed for battery system hardware, electrical brackets, motor-related sheet metal components and lightweight aluminum or steel parts.

METS provides an integrated workflow covering product review, tooling design, die manufacturing, assembly, tryout and production support. Our engineers analyze the customer's component geometry and production requirements before tooling begins, helping identify potential issues related to material flow, bending sequence, forming feasibility and dimensional stability.

Our tooling manufacturing process can include:

• CNC Milling
• Wire EDM
• Precision Grinding
• Drilling
• Tapping
• Die Fitting
• Component Assembly
• Surface Treatment
• Dimensional Inspection

Critical punches, inserts and forming components are manufactured with attention to dimensional accuracy and surface quality.

After machining, the progressive die is carefully assembled and tested. Trial stamping is performed to verify:

• Material feeding
• Strip progression
• Punching accuracy
• Forming quality
• Part dimensions
• Burr condition
• Die operation stability
• Component repeatability

The resulting stamped samples can then be inspected against the customer's drawings and technical requirements before final delivery.

Customers provide 2D drawings, 3D models, material specifications, thickness, tolerance requirements and estimated production volume.

Our engineers evaluate the component geometry and identify potential manufacturing risks before die design.

The optimal material feeding direction and operation sequence are developed to balance part quality, production efficiency and material utilization.

The complete die structure is designed, including punches, inserts, guide systems, strippers, forming stations and replaceable wear components.

Die components are manufactured through CNC machining, wire EDM, grinding and precision fitting.

The die is assembled and tested under actual stamping conditions.

Stamped samples are inspected for dimensions, forming quality and functional requirements.

After validation, the completed progressive die is prepared for shipment together with relevant tooling documentation and support.

A progressive die can be developed for automotive brackets requiring multiple operations such as piercing, bending and forming. The multi-station design allows the component to be produced continuously from coil material while maintaining consistent dimensional accuracy.

For reinforcement parts requiring multiple forming operations, progressive tooling can integrate piercing, forming, trimming and restriking into a controlled production sequence.

For terminals, connectors and conductive automotive components, progressive dies can combine high-speed piercing, forming and bending operations to support large production volumes.

Progressive stamping tooling is suitable for automotive seat brackets, support plates, mounting components and other precision sheet metal parts requiring repeatable production.

Tool steel and purchased components are checked according to project specifications.

Critical dimensions are inspected during CNC machining, EDM and grinding processes.

Guide systems, punches, inserts, strippers and forming components are checked during die assembly.

The completed die undergoes trial stamping to verify operating stability and part quality.

Stamped samples are checked against customer drawings and agreed technical requirements.

A progressive stamping die is a multi-station stamping tool that performs several operations as metal strip material moves continuously through the die. It is particularly suitable for high-volume production of automotive metal components.

Our tooling can be customized for automotive brackets, reinforcement parts, mounting plates, clips, seat components, electrical metal parts, structural components and other sheet metal parts.

Normally, we need:

• 2D product drawing
• 3D CAD model if available
• Material specification
• Material thickness
• Dimensional tolerances
• Annual production quantity
• Press specifications
• Required delivery date

Yes. Our engineers can review customer 3D models and drawings and develop the corresponding stamping process and progressive die structure.

Yes. METS provides both stamping die manufacturing and precision metal stamping services, allowing customers to obtain tooling and production support from the same supplier.
