Metallprägeverfahren

Metallprägeverfahren, also known as metal embossing or stamping, refers to a manufacturing process that shapes metal using a die and punch. This technique involves applying high pressure to a piece of metal, forcing it to conform to the shape of the die. The result is a raised or recessed design on the metal surface. Metallprägeverfahren can be used for a wide variety of applications, including coin production, jewelry making, automotive parts, and decorative elements.

There are several variations of metal embossing. Cold stamping involves shaping the metal at room temperature, while hot stamping uses heated metal and dies. The depth and complexity of the design depend on the type of metal used, the force applied, and the precision of the tooling. This method is highly efficient for mass production and can create intricate patterns with high accuracy. The process often involves multiple steps, including blanking (cutting the initial shape), pressing, and sometimes finishing operations like polishing or plating. Metallprägeverfahren is a cost-effective way to add aesthetic appeal and functional features to metal components.
