Tool and Die Making
Tool and die-making is a highly skilled trade focused on the design, construction, and repair of tools, dies, jigs, and fixtures used in manufacturing. These precision tools are essential for shaping, cutting, and forming materials—particularly in metalworking and high-volume production environments.
Tool and die-makers ensure that production processes are both efficient and accurate, supporting everything from custom fabrication to mass manufacturing. These tools play a critical role in maintaining tight tolerances, reducing waste, and increasing production speed.
Progressive Die Stamping
Progressive die stamping is an advanced cutting and forming process that utilizes a die with multiple, sequential stations. As a metal strip (typically from a coil) moves through the die, each station performs a specific operation—such as punching, bending, or coining—until the final part is completed. This method offers several key benefits:
- High-speed production with minimal downtime
- Consistent part quality and precision
- Ideal for complex geometries and tight tolerances
- Cost-effective for medium to high-volume runs
Progressive die stamping is often used in automotive, electronics, and appliance
manufacturing, where both durability and dimensional accuracy are critical.
