Stamping parts: one of the most commonly used processes in metalworking, involving the use of dies to form steel or non-ferrous metal sheets at room temperature by applying pressure via a press to achieve a specified shape.

A variety of products, including certain electronic devices, automotive components, and decorative materials, are manufactured as stamped parts. In general, “stamped parts” refer to cold-stamped components.

For example, to turn a steel plate into a fast-food tray, you first need to design a set of dies. The working surface of the die is flat. The steel plate is then pressed into the desired shape using these dies. This process is known as cold stamping—directly pressing metal materials with dies.

The Rockwell hardness tester is used for hardness testing of metal stampings. Small, complex-shaped stampings can be tested on their small flat surfaces—a capability that conventional Rockwell testers lack. Cold stamping processes include blanking, bending, deep drawing, forming, and finish machining. The primary materials used in the fabrication of metal stampings are hot-rolled or cold-rolled (with cold rolling being predominant) metal sheets and strips, such as carbon steel sheets, alloy steel sheets, spring steel sheets, galvanized sheets, tinplate, stainless steel sheets, copper and copper-alloy sheets, and aluminum and aluminum-alloy sheets.
