Hardware stamping is an efficient production method that uses composite molds, especially multi station progressive molds, to complete multiple stamping processes on a single press (single station or multi station), achieving fully automatic production from strip unwinding, leveling, punching to forming and finishing. High production efficiency, good working conditions, low production costs, and can generally produce hundreds of pieces per minute.

Hardware stamping is an efficient production method that uses composite molds, especially multi station progressive molds, to complete multiple stamping processes on a single press (single station or multi station), achieving fully automatic production from strip unwinding, leveling, punching to forming and finishing. High production efficiency, good working conditions, low production costs, and can generally produce hundreds of pieces per minute. Compared with other methods of mechanical processing and plastic processing, metal stamping has many unique advantages in both technical and economic aspects; The main manifestations are as follows:
(1) Hardware stamping processing has high production efficiency, easy operation, and is easy to achieve mechanization and automation. This is because stamping relies on stamping dies and stamping equipment to complete the processing. The number of strokes of a regular press can reach dozens of times per minute, while high-speed pressure can reach hundreds or even thousands of times per minute, and each stamping stroke may result in a stamped part.
(2) When stamping hardware, because the die ensures the size and shape accuracy of the stamping parts, and generally does not damage the surface quality of the stamping parts, and the life of the die is generally long, the stamping quality is stable, the interchangeability is good, and it has the characteristics of "identical".
(3) Hardware stamping can process parts with a wide range of sizes and complex shapes, such as small stopwatches for clocks, large car longitudinal beams, covers, etc. In addition, the cold deformation hardening effect of materials during stamping results in high strength and stiffness.
(4) Metal stamping generally does not generate chips or debris, consumes less material, and does not require other heating equipment, making it a material saving and energy-saving processing method with lower costs for stamping parts.
Due to the superiority of metal stamping, stamping processing has a wide range of applications in various fields of the national economy. For example, stamping processing is available in various sectors such as aerospace, aviation, military industry, machinery, agricultural machinery, electronics, information, railways, postal and telecommunications, transportation, chemical industry, medical equipment, daily electrical appliances, and light industry. Not only does the entire industry use it, but everyone is directly connected to stamping products. There are many large, medium, and small stamped parts on airplanes, trains, cars, and tractors. The body, frame, and rims of a small car are all stamped and processed. According to relevant surveys and statistics, 80% of bicycles, sewing machines, and watches are stamped parts; 90% of the components in televisions, recorders, and cameras are stamped parts; There are also food metal can shells, steel boilers, enamel pots and bowls, and stainless steel tableware, all of which are stamped products using molds; Even the hardware of computers cannot be lacking in stamped parts.
