Five more tips

Efficiency begins long before production starts.
When it comes to stamped parts, early decisions in design, tooling, and process planning can have a major impact on overall costs. Based on our long-standing experience in precision metal forming, we’ve compiled five practical ways to achieve measurable savings:

Optimise tools early – Minimise material usage already before the try-out phase by refining tool design and layout.

Integrate production steps – Combine as many operations as possible directly in the tool, such as feeding fasteners or performing partial forming steps.

Collaborate from the start – Close cooperation between development, design, and production partners helps identify the most cost-effective manufacturing approach.

Think end-to-end – Plan the entire process chain from the beginning to avoid costly adjustments later, including steps like coating or surface finishing.

Automate inspection – For complex parts, automated optical testing ensures consistent quality and reduces error-related costs.

By combining engineering expertise with intelligent process integration, we create solutions that deliver precision, quality, and efficiency – from the very first idea to series production.
