Aluminum & Steel Control Modules for the Automotive Industry
Perfection
Spring & Stamping Corp. was contracted to manufacture a large
series of steel bracket assemblies for the automotive industry. This
bracket assembly consisted of three mounting legs per component and a
cover bracket that was originally die-casted. Through prototyping and
development testing, our team of engineers established that this
expensive die casting process could be replaced with a drawn metal
stamping operation manufactured with both Aluminum and Steel options.
This solution provided a better product at considerable cost savings!To

Offering
a more stable metal forming procedure, drawn metal stamping eliminated
the need for other secondary operations and fasteners. Moreover, with
the ability to maintain tighter tolerances - as well as provide better
transfer of heat in extreme temperatures to meet the customer's RFI/EMI
requirements - this process yielded a higher quality product.
Additionally, the progressive die replaced the need for expensive
maintenance costs associated with die-cast tooling. When the results
were tabulated, this solution generated annual cost savings equal to
$200,000 per year over the five-year program, providing our customer
with a total savings of $1,000,000.
