Nickel Alloy Stampings: Tooling Design, Die Materials, and Maintenance
Tooling is the heart of any stamping operation, but when it comes to nickel alloy stampings, tooling becomes even more critical. Nickel alloys are among the most challenging materials to stamp due to their high strength, rapid work hardening, and tendency to gall. Without properly designed, fabricated, and maintained tooling, producing high-quality nickel alloy stampings…
