2. Stamping (metalworking) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stamping_(metalworking)

   Stamping (also known as pressing) is the process of placing flat sheet metal in either blank or coil form into a stamping press where a tool and die surface forms the metal into a net shape. Stamping includes a variety of sheet-metal forming manufacturing processes, such as punching using a machine press or stamping press , blanking, embossing ...

3. Die (manufacturing) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Die_(manufacturing)

   A die is a specialized machine tool used in manufacturing industries to cut and/or form material to a desired shape or profile. Stamping dies are used with a press, [1] as opposed to drawing dies (used in the manufacture of wire) and casting dies (used in molding) which are not. Like molds, dies are generally customized to the item they are ...

4. Stamping press - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stamping_press

   The bolster plate is mounted on top of the press bed and is a large block of metal upon which the bottom portion of a die is clamped; the bolster plate is stationary. Large presses (like the ones used in the automotive industry) may be equipped with die cushions integrated in the bolster plate to apply blank holder or counter draw forces.

5. Progressive stamping - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Progressive_stamping

   Progressive Die is a metalworking method that can encompass punching, coining, bending and several other ways of modifying metal raw material, combined with an automatic feeding system. The feeding system pushes a strip of metal (as it unrolls from a coil) through all of the stations of a progressive stamping die. [ 1 ]

6. Four-slide - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Four-slide

   As compared to standard stamping presses the tooling is usually inexpensive, due to the simplicity of the tools. A four-slide can usually produce 20,000 to 70,000 finished parts per 16-hour shift, depending on the number of operations per part; this speed usually results in a lower cost per part.

7. Coining (mint) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coining_(mint)

   Striking a coin refers to pressing an image into the blank metal disc, or planchet, and is a term descended from the days when the dies were struck with hammers to deform the metal into the image of the dies. Modern dies made out of hardened steel are capable of producing many hundreds of thousands of coins before they are retired and defaced.
