Metal Stamped Parts from Westlake Tool & Die

Successful products depend on expert metal stampings. As those in the industry know, metal stamping comprises a broad category of manufacturing services that turn strips or sheets of metal into functional components using tooling and dies. When customers need reliable metal stamped parts, they turn to us for assistance.

Metal stamping is the cornerstone of our business, and it drives everything we do. In our process of creating precision metal stampings, we use different components to produce cost-effective results and reduce the number of parts needed for sourcing. As a result, you get a partner who can design and build the best tooling for metal stampings to meet your application needs. Read on to learn more about our abilities.

About Precision Metal Stamping

Metal stamping is an efficient, cost-effective process that facilitates the high-volume production of metal parts. There are many different types of metal stamping, including progressive die stamping, multi-slide and four-slide stamping, and deep draw stamping. The type of metal stamping used will depend on the goals and requirements of your project, including the output volume, uniformity needs, and component complexity.

In the process of metal stamping, precision slit coil is fed into a stamping press. The press then applies force and pressure using dies to shape the metal into a metal stamped part. This is typically accomplished using blanking, bending, punching, or drawing. Lastly, the parts are tested and verified to your dimensional specification tolerance.

Materials Used, Industries Served, and Benefits

At Westlake Tool & Die, we help you optimize your part design and production to meet the needs of your application. Common materials used in high-volume metal stamping include stainless steel, aluminum, copper, brass, and steel alloys.

The materials used in the process are just as diverse as the industries in which metal stamped parts are used. Many industries require the help of high-volume metal stamping, producing such items as electronics housings and parts, appliance components, aerospace parts, food processing components, and medical device components.

The benefits of the process include:

  • High production speeds for large volumes, allowing more parts to be created more quickly
  • Cost-effective approach for high-quality production runs
  • Ability to create complex shapes and designs
  • Ability to provide dimensional accuracy and overall consistency across parts, even in large batches

Lastly, if you need unique metal stamped parts that aren’t offered elsewhere, you can opt for custom metal stampings to create a solution that is tailored to your needs.

Westlake Tool & Die Has Over 50 Years of Experience Making Metal Stamped Parts

At Westlake Tool & Die, we understand that cost-effective stampings begin with exceptional tooling, and we’ll work with you to provide the most cost-effective components. We can build simple, economical tooling that produces low-volume stampings in single-hit operations, or we can build complex, highly efficient progressive or transfer dies that provide the absolute lowest-cost parts with the highest degree of repeatability.

Plus, we have the ability to create tooling that can produce parts on our four-slide equipment. The four-slide manufacturing process allows you to form parts in multiple-axis applications rather than on a conventional stamping press. We can also design and implement in-die tapping that yields stampings with threaded holes, which means you avoid having to pay for a costly second operation to add welded fasteners or manually tap holes.

Our Approach to Tooling

When you need tooling for high-volume metal stamping, we can provide a solution that is low maintenance to optimize uptime. You will save even more money because all of our tooling is designed, built, and maintained in-house. When we design a tool, we work with our customers to identify critical aspects and features of the tool and then make provisions in the tooling to ensure part integrity and quality, leaving you with a seamless experience during your custom metal stamping process.

We’ll maintain your tooling for the entire life of the stamped parts, and we’ll only charge for die maintenance or repair in certain instances where dies were made by or provided by another supplier. Because we have a wide array of equipment, we can easily adapt to accommodate a supplier’s tooling – by either simplifying it or maintaining its authenticity – in order to get you up and running quickly in the case of a problematic supply issue.

Our Technology

We use the most current metal stamping technology, and competitors simply don’t have the assortment of equipment we have in-house. From specially coated punches and die sections to the latest in metal lubrication, the equipment and products we use all work together to provide you with the most professional components in the timeliest fashion, and at the lowest overall cost.
