Design Assistance

Res Manufacturing's ability to add high levels of value is anchored by its experienced, talent-rich, engineering associates. Our staff of degreed engineers in electrical, manufacturing, and mechanical engineering, combined with our three tool design engineers, provides our customers with valuable support in the design of progressive die metal stampings and subassemblies.

Design for manufacturability is key to a successful and sustained product launch. Res Manufacturing Company's staff of engineers is ready to assist your company at all stages of product launch including: initial stamping design, prototyping, production, and post-production.

Ask about our Metal Stamping Seminars, designed to help improve design for manufacturability, functionality, and cost containment. Part Design and tolerancing, press types, and metal selection are just a few of the topics that will be covered. Look for our next seminar announcement, planned for June 2010. We also offer seminars on-site at your facility. For more information, contact Rachael Griffin.

Attached are some basic design guidelines for metal forming design. By following these basic rules, process capability and cost minimization can be enhanced. The list is not meant to be all-inclusive.

If you have a stamping design question that is not covered in the design guidelines section, please contact our engineering staff at Ask the Designer
