We are distinguished by our ability to produce aesthetic and highly complex components. Our path to excellence begins with the order and continues through all stages of production, where each component undergoes rigorous quality control. We accompany the customer from design to finished product, investing in the best resources and technologies for each stage of the production process, guaranteeing results that exceed expectations and consolidate lasting partnerships.
Progressive stamping enables us to produce metal components with efficiency and
precision. During progressive stamping, the metal strip is processed through a series of stations in a press. Each die, built according to customer specifications, is made by stations that perform a specific operation, such as moulding, deep drawing, punching, bending, and cutting of the metal. The piece is thus gradually formed as it moves through the stations until it reaches its final shape.
Applications and advantages
Production efficiency: by integrating a sequence of operations in the die, complex parts can be obtained in a single machining cycle, reducing time, increasing productivity and optimizing the cost of the component.
Precision and quality: progressive operations ensure accurate and uniform machining, reducing errors; our experience also allows us to use these processes for aesthetic parts, guaranteeing high quality standards.
Versatility and adaptability: progressive pressing is suitable for a wide range of components, for mass production with medium to high numbers, offering flexibility and adaptability to customer needs.
Sustainability: the process is designed to minimize material waste while providing greater efficiency and sustainability. Being a cold stamping process, it has a lower impact on energy consumption.
In-line applications: automated assemblies, such as pin insertion, label or double-sided adhesive application, or threading can be integrated into existing production lines to optimize overall efficiency.
Transfer dies are an innovative solution for the production of pieces requiring complex machining with a single machine. In the stamping process using a transfer press, the transfer die is a piece of equipment designed for shearing and deforming of sheet metal that uses integrated external part for the transferring of the piece, using bars on which are mounted components called " little hands."

Both spot and projection welding meet a wide variety of industrial applications in mass production processing, offering an effective solution to join materials through heat and pressure. Projection welding involves heating materials by applying high-intensity electric current at specific contact points between the components to be joined. These contact points, called projections, are pressed together as the current is applied, creating heat through electrical resistance and forming a strong, solid weld.
Applications and advantages
Structural strength: it ensures a strong and stable connection between components, which is resistant to mechanical stress and vibration.
Production speed: it is a fast and efficient process, ideal for mass production.
Weld quality: it provides a uniform and high-quality weld, with few defects or imperfections.
Material economy: it minimizes the amount of additional material needed for welding,
reducing waste and costs.
Adaptability: it can be used on various materials, such as steel, aluminum and special alloys.
Manual or semiautomatic machining operations, such as crimping, re-bucking, riveting, buttoning and nailing are essential for joining components, offering a wide range of industrial applications.
