Even in today’s high-tech world short run<\/strong><\/em> stampings<\/a> still provide a key component in the lean manufacturing model. From 50 to 50,000 parts, short run stampings<\/a> allow you to get a high quality part at an inexpensive piece cost. With a variety of stamping and metal forming companies out there, why should you choose short run stamping<\/a> and the Clow Stamping Company<\/a> as the supplier for your upcoming project?<\/p>\n

PRICE<\/strong>– Both tooling and piece part costs are kept to a minimum through the use of common holders and common forming tools used by many of our customers. Clow<\/a> makes all of their tooling in-house and maintains the tool for the entire production of the part. You can expect the tooling to be 5-10% of the average cost <\/strong>of a progressive tool.<\/p>\n

QUALITY<\/strong>– Through the use of technical advances in both engineering and quality control, stampings <\/a>will provide you with quality unmatched by most other manufacturing processes such as a turret press. A stamping<\/a> can provide a prettier part without creating the burr a turret or laser would create.<\/p>\n

DELIVERY<\/strong>– Technical advances, such as wire EDM machines, have drastically reduced tooling times. With an average on-time delivery rate of 99.5%+ Clow<\/a> is set up to be the reliable supplier you can trust.<\/p>\n

VALUE ADDED<\/strong>– With the aid of our outside services, which we work closely with, we can provide various value-added operations. Examples are: plating, painting, silk-screening, heat treat, etc.<\/p>\n

To see how the Clow Stamping Co.<\/a> can help with your next project, reach out to our team at 513-438-8600 or sales@weigel-associates.com<\/a> for more information. We look forward to the opportunity to earn your business.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
