Design and in-house toolmaking
Stamping die manufacturing
We design and manufacture dies for cold sheet metal stamping. Tooling is developed for your part, material and press — from the technical brief to setup and testing.
Over 20 years
Experience in designing and manufacturing industrial tooling.
Full production cycle
Engineering, component manufacturing, assembly and setup.
For your press
Die design matched to your equipment and planned production volumes.
Dies for your production tasks
We select the design based on part geometry, sheet material and thickness, required operations and production volumes.
Blanking dies
Separate parts and blanks from sheet or strip stock along the specified outer contour.
Punching dies
Produce holes, slots and other internal contours in metal blanks.
Bending dies
Form bends and three-dimensional geometry, taking material thickness, bend radii and springback into account.
Drawing and forming dies
Create three-dimensional features from sheet metal blanks. The process is selected according to part geometry and material properties.
Combined-operation dies
Combine several operations in one cycle, such as blanking, punching and forming features of a part.
Progressive dies
Process strip stock through several successive stations. The operation sequence is developed for series production of the part.
From design to a finished die
Our engineering and manufacturing teams work together, matching technical decisions to the manufacturing process and the operating conditions of the tooling.
In-house toolmaking
We use CAD/CAM for design and manufacturing preparation. Working elements are made from tool steels selected for the part material and the operating conditions of the die.
- CNC milling and turning
- Electrical discharge machining (EDM) and grinding
- Heat treatment of working elements where required
- Bench fitting, assembly and setup
A die for your equipment
We design tooling for the customer’s press, taking force, working space, mounting arrangements and other installation and operating requirements into account.
A die and parts manufactured by us
We can combine tooling manufacture with subsequent production of stamped parts. Feasibility depends on the material, required force and compatibility of the die with our presses.

From the technical brief to testing
We agree on tooling requirements and check the results at each manufacturing stage.
Task assessment
We review drawings, a 3D model or a sample part, clarifying the material, sheet thickness, production volumes, part requirements and press specifications.
Design
We develop the die design and documentation, defining working elements, guide assemblies and the sequence of stamping operations.
Technical approval
We agree on technical solutions and requirements with the customer. Once documentation is approved, we prepare materials and the manufacturing process.
Manufacturing and assembly
We carry out the specified manufacturing operations, inspect components, assemble the die and set up its mechanisms.
Testing
We check die operation and trial parts against the agreed requirements. Equipment and test conditions are determined for each project.
Refinement and delivery
Where needed, we make adjustments after testing, then deliver the tooling or arrange part production under the agreed order terms.
Testing, quality and tooling support
We inspect manufactured components, check die operation and assess requests for subsequent servicing.
Testing on our own presses
We set up and test tooling compatible with our press equipment, checking mechanisms and trial part quality. The results guide any necessary die refinements.
Component and assembly inspection
Our quality control department checks manufactured elements against engineering documentation at the relevant production stages.
Checking stamped parts
We assess the geometry and quality of produced parts against the agreed technical requirements.
ISO 9001:2015 quality management system
Our facility operates a quality management system certified by TÜV Thüringen to ISO 9001:2015.
Repair, restoration and modernization
We assess requests to restore die functionality and modify tooling designs for production requirements.
- Restoring working surfaces and replacing worn components
- Machining, fitting and setting up components
- Design modifications and tooling operation checks
Feasibility and scope are determined after reviewing the design, technical condition and available documentation.
Questions before ordering
What do you need to quote a stamping die?
Please provide a drawing, 3D model or sample part, the sheet material and thickness, planned production volumes and press specifications. Missing information can be clarified during the technical review.
Can I order a die for my own press?
Yes. The design takes into account press force, working space, mounting arrangements and other equipment specifications needed to install and operate the tooling.
Can I order both a die and stamped parts?
Yes. Our sheet metal stamping facility has presses rated at 15, 25, 40, and 100 tonnes. Feasibility for a particular part depends on the material, required force, dimensions and compatibility of the tooling with the equipment.
Do you test dies on your own equipment?
We test dies compatible with the technical specifications of our presses, checking tooling operation and trial part quality. Equipment, the test program and conditions are agreed for each project.
How long does die manufacturing take?
Lead time is determined after reviewing the technical brief. It depends on the design, materials, purchased components, machining scope and test program and is agreed for each order.
What affects the manufacturing cost?
Cost depends on the die type and dimensions, number of operations, materials, components and manufacturing and testing requirements. We prepare an individual quotation based on the technical brief.
Do you repair and modernize stamping dies?
We assess requests for tooling repair, restoration and modification. Feasibility and scope depend on the die design, technical condition and available documentation.
Let’s discuss your stamping die
Send drawings, a 3D model or a technical brief for an initial assessment and quotation. We can clarify missing information while reviewing your request.
Information that helps us assess your request
- A drawing, 3D model or part description and requirements
- Sheet or strip material and thickness
- Planned batch sizes or part production volumes
- Press specifications if the die is for your equipment
