System Lifecycle / 7 Phases

From Drawing Release
to Production Stability.

Each card represents a discrete phase of the stamping system lifecycle. Click any card to expose the engineering depth beneath.

Phase 01

Engineering Consultation

Part analysis, tonnage calculation, and die concept review before a single drawing is cut.

4–6 wkAvg. Quote Turnaround
Technical spec
Phase 01 / Spec Sheet

Our applications engineers review your part geometry against material spec sheets. Progressive, transfer, or compound — we determine the correct press architecture before the proposal.

  • Formability index analysis
  • Material springback calc
  • Die station count optimization

Phase 02

FEA Simulation

Finite element analysis validates forming sequences and identifies thinning risk before die steel is cut.

Technical spec
Phase 02 / Spec Sheet

Simulation data drives die face geometry, blank development, and binder force calculations. Clients receive full simulation reports with heat maps and strain distribution overlays.

  • AutoForm / Dynaform models
  • Thinning < 15% threshold
  • Wrinkling suppression maps
~30%Reduction in Die Try-Out Iterations
Phase 03

Die Design

Progressive and transfer die design to D2 / M2 / carbide tooling standards with full tolerance stack analysis.

Technical spec
Phase 03 / Spec Sheet

Die designs are released in CATIA V5 / Solid Edge. Full tolerance stack reports accompany every build package, with GD&T callouts matched to part print requirements.

  • ±0.003 mm punch/die clearance
  • Carbide inserts for <0.5 mm features
  • Standardized SMED quick-change bases

Phase 04

Machine Build

Servo-driven and mechanical press assembly in our 180,000 sq ft facility, with full traceability on every component.

Technical spec
Phase 04 / Spec Sheet

Critical components — gibs, crankshafts, connection rods — are manufactured in-house on Mazak and DMG Mori CNC equipment. Incoming material certs are logged to serial number.

  • Servo motor: Siemens 1FT7 series
  • Slide parallelism ≤ 0.02 mm
  • Hydraulic overload protection std.

Phase 05

Runoff Testing

Full-speed production runoff at rated tonnage before shipment, with SPC data delivered to the customer.

Technical spec
Phase 05 / Spec Sheet

Every press ships with a runoff report including SPC control charts, hit-to-hit tonnage plots, and dimensional inspection data on first-off parts. No surprises on your floor.

  • 100k-stroke runoff minimum
  • Cpk ≥ 1.67 on critical dims
  • Tonnage signature recording
Cpk ≥ 1.67Runoff Acceptance Criterion
Phase 06

Installation & Commissioning

StampForce field engineers handle rigging, leveling, electrical tie-in, and operator qualification at your facility.

Technical spec
Phase 06 / Spec Sheet

Installation teams are certified millwrights and controls engineers. Commissioning includes a full I/O checkout, safety circuit validation, and a two-day operator training program.

  • Foundation bolt-pattern supplied
  • Leveling tolerance ±0.05 mm/m
  • OSHA 1910.217 compliance audit
