Introduction

Hard stamps are precision tools used in a variety of industrial applications. These stamps are engineered with high-strength materials to withstand significant stress and are essential in processes requiring permanent marking or shaping of different materials. Their purpose ranges from branding and traceability to enhancing manufacturing processes.

Applications of Hard Stamps

Hard stamps are extensively utilized in industries such as metalworking, automotive, aerospace, and manufacturing. Below are specific applications:

• Metal Stamping: Used for imprinting logos, numbers, and serial codes onto metal surfaces. This ensures traceability and brand recognition.
• Mold Making: Facilitates the creation of molds that are used to produce high-precision components.
• Die Casting: Assists in creating complex shapes through the application of high pressure on metal alloys.
• Coining and Minting: Used in the production of coins and medals, where precision and detail are crucial.

Technical Specifications

The design and functionality of a hard stamp depend heavily on its technical specifications. Some of the key parameters include:

• Material: Typically made from hardened steel, tool steel, or carbide to ensure durability and high wear resistance.
• Hardness: Ranges from 60 to 70 HRC (Rockwell Hardness Scale), providing the necessary penetration capability.
• Engraving Depth: Usually between 0.01 mm to 1 mm, depending on the application requirement.
• Precision: Tolerances as small as ±0.02 mm, essential for high-accuracy applications.
