Every part we manufacture starts with a rigorous new part introduction planning process. During the NPI process, we review your engineering data and your specific requirements in order to develop and document a manufacturing process, raw material and subcontract specifications, inspection methods, and packaging. Shop orders are generated for each production run; the process on the Shop Order reflects the approved manufacturing process and is rigorously followed. Changes from the approved methods are controlled through Process Change requests for the life of the part.

Unplated steel parts are subject to oxidation. In order to supply “Rust Free” parts a finishing operation such as plating is required. Special packaging considerations can be quoted separately upon request for product that must be bare to reduce the effects of oxidation. For example, parts can be oiled and packed in plastic bags, vacuum sealed, or packing can include desiccant or VPI paper. These methods will add to the protection of the parts, but again, may not eliminate all surface oxidation.

Yes. Our preferred files are DXF, IGES, an STP files, however, we can convert most CAD files for use. Internally, we use Solidworks. We also accept image files such as .PDF or .TIFF files.
We utilize a secure document management system to store and to distribute information to authorized individuals within Eigen.
Yes we have done this successfully many times over the years.
Eigen will normally have tooling made to our requirements using in-house facilities by adopting robust tool manufacturing process. During the life of the product and the tool, we perform the maintenance of that tooling in-house by our toolmakers.
We start by identifying your quality system requirements for new part qualification. It is best that you provide us with this information with your quote request. Without specific instructions from you, we will typically inspect product off of the initial production run and document conformance to specifications for our internal usage. Other variations could include following a specific First Article Approval process, providing physical samples to you, making a dedicated manufacturing run prior to production, compliance with specific PPAP requirements, and providing material and subcontracted purchase test reports. Each of these options can have both cost and lead time implications.
Please share your concerns immediately by contacting us. They will document the concern through entry of a Corrective Action Request (CAR). Their entry begins an initial investigation, and we will work with you to resolve the issue and ensure the problem does not reoccur through formal corrective actions. If required, a “Return Material Authorization” will be provided should product have to be returned to us.
Quoted prices are valid for 90 days from time of quote, unless otherwise specified. Due to market conditions of raw material and other outside services, the quoted prices are subject to change based upon conditions beyond our control. It is also a common practice to vary pricing based on changes in commodity price indexes (reported for steel, aluminium, copper, gold, and stainless steel) within the 90 days noted above.
In most cases the selling price does not include the freight. Unless otherwise specified the quoted price is based upon freight “F.O.B., Our dock”. We will ship via our customer’s specified carriers, or recommend the most economic method.
Yes. For our major customers we provide electronic advance shipping notices and also invoicing upon request via e-mail or Internet based systems. For specific shipments we can also forward you the “Tracking number” or “PRO number”, upon request.
All of our shipments are bar-coded using a variant of an AIG label. Please contact us should you have a unique requirement.
Progressive die stamping refers to a process of metalwork that manufacturers use to create components utilized in a wide range of industries, such as electronics, appliances, automobiles, and aerospace, among others. A raw metal strip is put through a stamping press to form a finished part through progressive tooling. This part is assembled with other components to form a finished product.
A compound die is a mold structure processed in one stroke, using mechanisms like punching, stamping or bending in a single stroke. These are simpler components and are cost effective. While progressive die is a sequence die which uses multiple processes such as cutting, bending, forming and stretching. These require significant investment.
Sheet metal pressing and stamping are more cost-efficient than other processes because they reduce the per-unit costs and labour charges.
Transfer and progressive die stamping are different processes used for stamping metal components with a wide range of applications. Manufacturers choose a method based on the volume of components to be manufactured, the product’s nature, and the rate at which they require the components.
Metal stamping is a precision process used for shaping the metal into desirable shapes. Traditionally, it was carried out by hand, but top precision metal stamping companies have simplified the process and made it more accurate. The process makes shaping metal sheets precise at an affordable price without compromising the materials’ integrity. Moreover, metal undergoing precision die and stamping are commonly used in automotive, electrical, and manufacturing industries.
The metal stamping process is a complex and intricate one. Stamping comprises of placing flat sheet metal, in either coil or sheet form, into a stamping press. In the press, a tool and die surface form the metal into the desired shape. Punching, blanking, bending, coining, embossing, and flanging are all stamping techniques used to shape the metal. When you try to create a product with high precision, the precision metal stamping process is the best way to go about it. Precision metal stamping companies carry out the process as per your needs and requirements.
Precision metal stamping is a combination of various operations such as stamping, folding, drawing, and piercing. It is either a single operation or a series of multiple operations depending upon the parts being stamped. Precision metal stamping is an exemplary process where blank metal sheets are punched from cold-rolled, hot-rolled or extruded stock and shaped to produce exact dimensional tolerances. Precision Metal Stamping is one of the most cost-effective ways for companies that expedite the creation of complex shapes and products.
Metal stamping is a manufacturing process that creates metal parts by using a die to shape the metal. Precision metal stamping can be done with different gauges of steel, depending on the requirements. In addition, the material also plays an instrumental role in selecting the gauge. For instance, if you make aluminium sheets undergo precision metal stamping, it is better to do so with a thinner gauge instead of thicker steel plates.
Assembly refers to a set of several parts that work together, and a part is just a fraction of this assembly.
Assembly is the process through which components are combined without altering their core functionalities or features.
DFA (design for assembly) refers to a process that was designed to make component assembly easier. This brings down manufacturing costs significantly.
The sooner DFA (design for assembly) best practices are implemented in the design process, the better your product will be. Ideally, this is during the conceptualizing phase. Design for product assembly helps in reducing production costs.
In manufacturing, tooling is the process used to build various components and tools for production. Tooling services ensure that the components manufactured function correctly, have longer life cycles, and ensure superb product quality. Eigen offers customization of these tooling services to suit your business needs.
Some of the most common materials used in precision stamping are alloys of aluminum, nickel, copper, steel, brass and stainless steel.
Pressing or stamping is a process that requires a flat metal sheet to be placed in a press in blank or coil form. Inside the press, a die and tool surface apply pressure onto the metal and shape it to form the desired product. Some of the techniques used are blanking, embossing, flanging and coining.
A compound tool is where piercing and blanking are performed within a single stage. It is an inverted tool used in the stamping process.
CAM (computer-aided manufacturing), workflow simulations and manufacturing execution systems are some of the most advanced technologies used in manufacturing and design.
