Dies and Punches for Metal Forming

Metal deformation with high surface quality

From wear resistance to heat resistance

Grain sizes and the binder compositions of our carbide grades are combined according to their specific application requirements, which allows the metal forming tool’s characteristics to efficiently cover the range from extremely wear-resistant to equally as heat-resistant.

A long tool life reduces production costs

Carbide grades developed especially for metal forming are enormously wear-resistant and simultaneously tough. They resist high temperatures, withstand high pressure, and guarantee long tool life and high repeated accuracy.

A precise and stable forming process guaranteed.

Consistent quality – consistent processes

Thanks to decades of know-how in all production and machining methods, we guarantee maximum accuracy of manufacturing tolerances and the consistent quality of our blanks, ensuring stable metal forming processes with equal parameters.

Fast. Flexible. Straightforward.
