General Die Information

General Die Information

A die is a tool used to cut or shape material usually carried out on sheet metal but can also be used on other materials (Contact your US Metal Crafters Representative for details). Our die capabilities include tool and die design as well as manufacturing and maintenance.

The majority of our die jobs are progressive first using a punch then die block allowing the final form to include multiple modifications. The Progressive dies are commonly fed from a coil of steel, coil reel for unwinding of coil to a straightener to level the coil and then into a feeder which advances the material into the press and die at a predetermined feed length. Depending on part complexity, the number of stations in the die can be few or many.
