Stamping is a metal fabrication process that uses a mechanical or hydraulic press and hardened tool steels to adapt the configuration of a piece of material to a customer's requirements. The hardened tool steels are mounted in a die set, typically as an upper and lower die, which in turn is mounted in the press. The material can then be guided into the die set in an automated fashion via a de-coiler and straightener, or manually, one blank at a time. As the press closes the tool steels engage [...]
