Technical Capabilities

Custom Precision Metal Stamping – Technical Specifications

Custom precision metal stamping at Honyo Prototype integrates advanced laser cutting, CNC bending, and precision welding to deliver high-tolerance components for demanding industrial applications. While stamping traditionally refers to die-based forming of sheet metal, our process combines stamping with subtractive and joining technologies to achieve complex geometries and superior repeatability. Below are the technical capabilities and material specifications for key fabrication stages.

Process Capability Tolerance Max Workpiece Size Compatible Materials (Primary)
Laser Cutting Fiber laser cutting for intricate 2D profiles and detailed apertures ±0.05 mm 1500 mm × 3000 mm Aluminum (5052, 6061, 7075), Cold Rolled Steel (CRS), Stainless Steel (304, 316)
CNC Bending High-precision air bending using CNC press brakes with tooling selection ±0.2° angular, ±0.1 mm linear 2500 mm length, up to 3 mm aluminum / 2 mm steel Aluminum, CRS, Stainless Steel
Precision Welding TIG and spot welding for clean, high-integrity joints; robotic MIG available ±0.3 mm positional Full-part assembly up to 1200 × 800 mm Aluminum, Mild Steel, Stainless Steel

Material Notes:

Aluminum and steel are primary candidates for laser cutting, stamping, bending, and welding due to their formability, strength, and weldability. ABS and Nylon, while used in hybrid assemblies, are non-metallic thermoplastics and are not compatible with stamping or laser cutting in the same manner as metals. These polymers are typically machined, molded, or ultrasonically welded and may be integrated into sub-assemblies post-metal fabrication.

ABS and Nylon are included in design considerations for insulative or wear-resistant components but require secondary attachment methods such as fasteners, adhesives, or overmolding when combined with stamped metal parts. They cannot undergo laser cutting or bending in a metal fabrication line and are excluded from welding processes involving metal fusion.

For full electromechanical assemblies, Honyo Prototype supports hybrid builds where precision-stamped metal components interface with polymer elements, ensuring tight integration and functional reliability.


From CAD to Part: The Process

Honyo Prototype Custom Precision Metal Stamping Process Overview

Honyo Prototype executes custom precision metal stamping through a rigorously integrated workflow designed for accuracy, speed, and manufacturability. This closed-loop process begins with client-provided CAD data and culminates in certified part delivery, with embedded quality checks at every phase. Below is the detailed sequence:

Upload CAD
Clients initiate the process by uploading native 3D CAD files (STEP, IGES, or Parasolid formats preferred) via our secure customer portal. We require geometrically complete models with explicit material specifications, tolerances, and surface finish requirements. Incomplete submissions trigger automated validation checks, prompting clients to resolve ambiguities before progression. This phase ensures dimensional intent is unambiguous for downstream engineering analysis.

AI-Assisted Quoting
Uploaded CAD data feeds into our proprietary AI quoting engine, which cross-references real-time variables including material market pricing, tooling complexity algorithms, and production capacity. The system generates a preliminary quote within 2 hours, detailing cost drivers like blank size optimization, secondary operation requirements, and material utilization rates. Crucially, this is not fully automated; Honyo’s manufacturing engineers validate all AI outputs against historical production data and physical constraints, ensuring quotes reflect achievable shop-floor realities. Clients receive a transparent breakdown with no hidden fees.

DFM Engineering Review
Every project undergoes mandatory Design for Manufacturability (DFM) analysis by our senior stamping engineers. This phase identifies and resolves critical issues such as:
Minimum bend radii violations relative to material thickness
Progressive die strip layout inefficiencies
Tolerance stack-up risks in multi-stage forming
Material grain direction conflicts with part geometry
We provide actionable feedback within 24 hours, including suggested modifications to reduce cost or improve yield. Clients approve revised designs or waive specific recommendations via digital signoff. Unresolved DFM flags halt progression to production—no exceptions.

Precision Production
Approved designs enter production on our CNC-controlled stamping lines (up to 200-ton capacity), featuring:
In-die sensors monitoring tonnage, part ejection, and strip feed accuracy
Automated vision systems performing 100% critical dimension checks at line speed
Statistical process control (SPC) with real-time Cp/Cpk tracking for high-risk features
All tooling uses hardened D2 or A2 tool steel with precision-ground components. Secondary operations (e.g., tapping, welding, plating) occur in-house under the same quality umbrella. Material certifications and first-article inspection reports (FAIRs) are generated per AS9102 standards.

Certified Delivery
Completed parts undergo final audit against client specifications, including:
Full-spectrum CMM validation for geometric tolerances
Material hardness and coating thickness verification
Packaging per ESD-sensitive or moisture-barrier requirements
We ship with comprehensive documentation: CoC (Certificate of Conformance), FAIR, SPC data, and non-destructive test results. Standard lead time is 10–15 business days from DFM approval, with expedited options tracked via client-accessible logistics dashboards.

Process Performance Metrics
Honyo’s closed-loop system delivers consistent results:

Phase Avg. Duration Key Quality Metric
CAD Upload to Quote < 2 hours 98.7% quote accuracy rate
DFM Review ≤ 24 hours 42% average cost reduction via design optimization
Production 10–15 days 1.33+ Cpk on critical dimensions
Delivery On schedule 99.2% on-time shipment rate

This workflow eliminates traditional handoffs between quoting, engineering, and production teams. By integrating AI-driven insights with deep stamping expertise, Honyo ensures manufacturability is engineered in from the first CAD upload—not discovered as a problem during tool tryout. Clients gain predictability in cost, quality, and delivery for even the most complex precision metal components.
