Stamping and punching are both fabrication techniques commonly applied in sheet metal processing and play a crucial role in the manufacturing of various metal parts. Stamping, also known as blanking, utilizes stamping presses to cut shapes from sheet material, while punching, known as hole making in metal, employs punching tools to create holes in the material. Both methods are particularly suitable for thin sheets and are renowned for their precision and efficiency. They are employed depending on the required operations on the sheet material, with stamping focusing on cutting out specific shapes and punching on creating holes and cutouts.

The core of stamping and punching 

Stamping offers (almost) endless benefits and has a wide range of applications in numerous industries. The process is not only time-saving and cost-effective, but also offers unmatched productivity due to the continuous supply of belt material. A die-cutting machine can produce multiple copies of a given shape in a short period of time, making it an ideal choice for serial production.

Stamps: the heart of the die-cutting machine 

Specific stamps are used for stamping, which are made with great care by toolmakers or die makers. Manufactured using machining techniques such as turning and milling, these stamps must match perfectly for optimal results. The use of state-of-the-art EDM machines and various joining techniques ensures that the parts of stamps can be accurately attached to each other.
