Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What is the typical lead time for custom stamping die components?

A: Lead times vary based on complexity. Simple replacement punches: 1-2 weeks. Complete progressive dies: 6-10 weeks. Contact us for a specific timeline.

Q: Do you offer coatings for punches and dies?

A: Yes, we offer TiCN, Al-Cr, DLC, and WPC treatments. Note that coatings are typically applied to punches only, not button dies, due to the PVD process .

Q: What is the recommended punch-to-die clearance?

A: Standard clearance is approximately 5% of material thickness per side. For extended tool life, engineered clearance may be increased, often requiring ejector pins to prevent slug pulling .

Q: Can you manufacture die components from customer-provided samples?

A: Absolutely. We can reverse-engineer components from physical samples and provide matching replacements.

Q: What file formats do you accept for drawings?

A: We accept DXF, DWG, STEP, IGES, STP, and PDF. For complex geometries, 3D models (STEP/IGES) are preferred.

Q: Do you offer die design services?

A: Yes, our engineering team can design complete stamping dies from concept to finished tooling, optimizing for manufacturability and cost
