Custom Metal Stamping Parts from ZF Metal (China)
Core Operations Overview
Our stamping capabilities cover a full range of sheet metal forming processes, with both single-station dies and progressive dies available to match your order volume and part complexity.
Process scope
Blanking, piercing, bending, embossing, shallow drawing, coining, trimming and progressive die stamping
Equipment
25T-400T mechanical presses, high-speed stamping lines, hydraulic presses for thick plate forming
Material range
Cold rolled steel, galvanized steel, stainless steel, aluminum alloy, copper, brass and specialty metal sheets
Capacity
Sheet thickness 0.2mm - 8mm, maximum stamping area 1500mm x 1000mm
Standard workflow
DFM analysis → tooling design & fabrication → die tryout & sample approval → mass production → deburring & inspection → surface finishing
Why Partner with ZF Metal for Your Metal Stamping Projects?
Our independent mold workshop designs and fabricates stamping dies in-house, cutting tooling cost by 30% and lead time by 40% compared with outsourced tooling. We also provide lifetime die maintenance for mass production orders.
Progressive die stamping lines reach 60-120 strokes per minute, ideal for high-volume orders with stable dimensional consistency.
Our engineering team optimizes part design for material nesting and formability, improving material utilization by 10-20% and reducing scrap rate.
We implement in-die sensing and regular die maintenance to minimize burrs, springback and dimension deviation, ensuring over 99.5% batch pass rate.
Quality Control & Official Documentation
Required Documents & Parameters for Fast DFM Review
To complete manufacturability assessment and accurate quotation within 24 hours, please provide:
- 2D/3D product drawings with dimensioned tolerances
- Material specification and sheet thickness
- Stamping process requirements (piercing, bending, forming, etc.)
- Order quantity and annual production forecast
- Surface finish requirements (galvanizing, powder coating, anodizing, etc.)
- Special requirements (flatness tolerance, burr limitation, assembly fit)
- Whether existing tooling is available or new tooling is required
Custom Metal Stamping FAQ
How long does it take to build a new stamping die?
For simple single-station dies, tooling lead time is 7-10 days; for complex progressive dies, lead time is 15-25 days, including sample tryout and approval.
Do you charge for stamping tooling? Is tooling cost refundable?
Tooling is charged separately based on part complexity. For mass production orders reaching agreed volume, we can offer full or partial tooling cost refund.
What is the minimum burr height you can control?
For standard sheet metal stamping, we control burr height below 5% of material thickness; for precision stamping, burr height can be controlled below 0.03mm.
Can you produce progressive die stamping parts for high volume orders?
Yes. Progressive dies are our standard solution for annual volumes above 50,000 pieces, delivering higher efficiency and lower unit cost.
