Dynamic Die Supply: Unveils Insights on Common Stamping Die Components
In a comprehensive article by The Fabricator, the fundamental components of stamping dies are explored. Die plates, shoes, and die sets, typically made from steel or aluminum, form the foundation for mounting the working die components. These components must undergo precise machining, either through milling or grinding, to achieve the required parallelism and flatness within… Continue reading Dynamic Die Supply: Unveils Insights on Common Stamping Die Components
Die Science: What makes a Class A die a Class A die?
Class A – Type 1The first type of class A die typically is a larger drawing and stretching die for producing parts that require a completely smooth and defect-free surface. Exterior automobile body panels such as outer doors, hoods, roofs, fenders, and trunk lids are classic examples of parts made with this tooling. The forming… Continue reading Die Science: What makes a Class A die a Class A die?
Stamping Die Essentials: First, determine the process of making a stamped part
A stamping die is typically a one-of-a-kind, custom-designed tool. Unlike a store-bought item, it doesn’t come with instructions for assembly, operation, and maintenance. If even one of those factors isn’t done correctly, catastrophic tooling and stamping failure can result. But first things first. Should This Part Be Stamped?Before you can even begin to think about… Continue reading Stamping Die Essentials: First, determine the process of making a stamped part
Die Science – Stamping Die Essentials: Determine the process first
Author’s Note: Since it’s been about 15 years since my Die Basics 101 series, I’ve been asked to write another series of articles on the fundamentals of stamping die design and construction. As experienced toolmakers and engineers retire, many companies have struggled to find and hire individuals with basic metal stamping tooling knowledge. I hope… Continue reading Die Science – Stamping Die Essentials: Determine the process first
