At Westlake Tool & Die, we're dedicated to providing the most efficient, repeatable metal forming techniques on the market. This includes offering high-quality transfer press stamping services for those looking to fulfill their industrial application needs.

About the Transfer Die Stamping Process

We're proud to work with mechanical transfer systems as opposed to servo transfer, which uses a combination of cylinders and cams to pivot and close as needed. Additionally, our mechanical transfer systems feature pneumatic activation that pushes long rails forward, as well as specialized cameras that control the movement of rollers for part placement. Finally, our equipment includes fingers that come down to transport parts between stations.

The team at Westlake Tool & Die is also proud to specialize in cam-action transfer as needed, which involves using a driver to move parts within the tool, helping push parts from one station to another. This transfer die stamping process is driven by the press stroke itself. So, from the initial prototypes to full production, let us assist you in the development of your custom components.

An Overview of Our Material and Tolerance Capabilities

Just some of the materials that we can work with for transfer die stamping include the following:

• Steel
• Stainless steel
• Copper
• Brass
• Aluminum
• Food-grade stainless steel

Regarding tolerances, we can achieve plus or minus two thousandths on hole locations, as well as plus or minus five thousandths on complex formed parts with multiple bends. This level of precision when transfer press stamping is significantly better than what 95% of the industry can achieve, even with complex forming operations.

Advantages of Transfer Die Stamping Compared to Standard Systems

When working with us, know that we design transfer press stamping systems that are unique to the specific parts being made for each customer. This differs from competitors, who tend to utilize servo-driven transfer systems with large bed presses and servo motors or robots.

Don't settle for a company that forces you to conform your parts to the parameters of standard presses. Choose Westlake Tool & Die, a premier metal stamping company ready to work with you through each step of the transfer die stamping process, answering questions and tailoring project specs to meet your expectations.
