Parts That Can Be Made Using This Process
An Overview of Our Precision Metal Stamping Process
- Design For Manufacturing (DFM): Our engineering team ensures that both the part and tooling designs are optimized for manufacturability and meet the required specifications. All design proposals are submitted for customer approval prior to fabrication
- Material Selection and Preparation: Tool steel and related die materials are selected based on the mechanical properties of the part’s raw material, particularly tensile strength, wear resistance, and forming characteristics
- Die Fabrication: The die-making process includes CNC machining, EDM, wire cutting, surface grinding and heat treatment, followed by die set assembly to ensure dimensional accuracy and durability.
- Process execution: Using machine stamping with correct tonnage, die height, slide and bolster dimensions ensuring compatibility with the tooling conditions.
- IPQC: Parts are inspected using calibrated instruments such as CMM, callipers and height gauges. Process capability is monitored and reported using statistical indicator such as Cpk to ensure product consistency.
- Maintenance and Tool Life Maintenance: Preventive maintenance schedules for dies are managed using software Tooling Management System (TMS) that ensures consistent tool performance, reduced downtime, and extended tool life.
With this structured and controlled process, we are a trusted service provider of metal stamping in Malaysia, delivering custom metal stamping solutions that exceed industry standard and customer expectations.
An Overview of Our Precision Metal Stamping Process

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Key factors in ensuring quality of in-house die fabrication related to the software design capabilities utilizing CAD software such as AutoCAD and SOLIDWORKS combined with the expertise of skilled designers and precision machining technologies (EDM, CNC, wirecut and surface grinding) for achieving tight tolerances and reliable performance.
Lead times vary based on part complexity. Typically for die designed at machines stamping between 250 to 400 tonnes, the timeframe for fabrication until T0 testing ranges from 4 to 8 weeks.
Progressive die stamping in Malaysia is ideal for producing complex parts in high volumes. It can achieve UPH up to 2000pcs and allows multiple operations such as punching, bending, and forming to be performed in sequence within a single die, increasing efficiency.
After the custom metal stamping process, we offer a range of secondary services,
Including in-house component assembly, spot and projectile welding, wet paint spray, and silk screen printing to complete your product. We also can offer to outsource surface finishing such as ED coating, powder coating and nickel plating with qualified a subcontractor.
Yes, we have servo press machines that can perform fine blanking, mainly used for automotive parts. This technology allows us to produce parts with clean edges, high accuracy, and less need for extra machining.
