Completing high-quality metal stampings requires many key stages, from precision or deep drawn metal stamping services to fabrication, powder coating, and beyond. Each of these steps represents a critical stage in the precision metal stamping process that makes a difference in how quickly you can complete your custom metal parts and to what degree of quality. Working with a stamper equipped to handle every step of the process offers many benefits to your finished product and your ability to get to market without delay. Read on to learn more about the benefits of choosing a turnkey metal stamper and how they streamline the precision metal stamping process.
What Goes into the Precision Metal Stamping Process?
Precision metal stamping begins by placing a coil of sheet metal into a stamping press, where the tool/die will punch, bend, and form the strip to transform it into a metal stamped product or component. Different types of presses can be used to tailor the precision metal stamping process to the needs of the parts based on the tonnage and style of the machine. At HTT, we have various styles of presses from straight side to OBI and ranging from 25 to 500 tons tailored to meet your needs.
In addition to stamping itself, there are many other processes available to complement a custom metal part, such as welding. Our expert resistance, MIG, and robotic welding services ensure your project receives high-quality welded metal parts. Additionally, HTT specializes in metal fabrication, including laser cutting and forming both simple and complex designs. Another essential final step is powder coating in order to add value to your metal projects and enhance the longevity of your finished stampings.
With a turnkey manufacturer like HTT, you can ensure each stage you require is completed under one roof. This keeps your precision metal stamping process efficient and promotes better results, allowing a trusted team to monitor the quality from start to finish.
Benefits of Turnkey Metal Stamping Partners
Working with a metal stamper equipped to satisfy your needs in every stage of the precision metal stamping process and beyond can be very beneficial for the final quality of your product and for your bottom line.
Some key benefits include:
Save Time
Working with a metal stamper that can handle your project in-house from start to finish will help you move through each stage faster and complete your project on time.
Boost Quality
When the same fabrication partner is in charge of each stage of your project, they have more knowledge of its intricacies and can focus on reducing errors and achieving the highest quality. It’s important to trust your stamper’s qualifications. HTT is a proud certified ISO and IATF company, demonstrating our commitment to quality service.
Plan Better
Establishing a strong project roadmap is key to mitigating future challenges. HTT is also skilled in the Advanced Product Quality Planning (APQP) process, a structured approach to product design and implementation with the goal of reducing errors and maximizing quality in order to better satisfy the needs of the customer. The APQP process consists of 5 key phases: planning, product design and development, process design and development, product and process validation, and feedback and corrective action.
HTT is always trying to do better for its customers, so the APQP is invaluable in reducing risk and crafting superior products in a timely and efficient manner.
Enjoy Competitive Costs
Working with only one stamper for the production of your custom metal part can save you money and prevent you from needing to find multiple partners. These competitive cost benefits support your bottom line and help you avoid unnecessary expenses.
Achieve Greater Value
Turnkey metal stampers who can handle the stamping and finishing services in-house allow you to achieve the greatest value from your partnership. Don’t settle for manufacturers that don’t fully meet your needs — with a team like HTT, you can count on us to handle every step.
