Process overview
| Process | Typical use | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Progressive die stamping | Brackets, terminals, connectors, and clips cut and formed in one continuous strip run | Press and tooling matched to the part; confirmed per order |
| Deep drawing | Cups, housings, and shells formed from a flat blank into a 3D shape | Multi-stage draws; thickness and draw depth confirmed per drawing |
| Metal clips, springs, and contacts from strip | Spring clips, retaining clips, flat springs, electrical terminals, connectors, battery contacts | Spring-temper and conductive alloys: phosphor bronze, beryllium copper, copper alloys |
See the dedicated page for each: Progressive Die Stamping, Deep-Drawn Parts, Metal Clips, Springs, and Contacts from Strip.
Materials and finishing across all three
Typical materials include SPCC/SECC steel, stainless, copper alloys, aluminum, phosphor bronze, and beryllium copper (usable thickness depends on the material and the part). Finishing - plating (Zn, Ni, Sn, Au flash), anodizing, powder coat, and heat treatment - can be arranged through Taiwanese finishing subcontractors; available finishes and inspection scope are confirmed per order. Details on inspection and traceability are on our Quality and Material Traceability page.
Why buyers move stamping orders to Taiwan
Taiwan's stamping industry has the press capacity, tool-and-die expertise, and finishing subcontractors clustered close together - but many factories only take orders that fit their own presses, have no English-language support, and rarely reply to overseas RFQs. We help you find and coordinate suitable Taiwanese factories through one accountable, English-speaking contact, from your first drawing to shipment.
Not sure which process your part needs?
Send us a drawing or sample photo through our RFQ form and we'll tell you which process fits - many parts, like a stamped bracket with a formed spring clip, combine more than one.
