Metal Stamping of Electrical Brackets for the Electronics Industry

Electrical Brackets Metal Stamping

AmeriStar provides many different styles and shapes of brackets to the Electronics industry. This is just one example. In smaller quantities brackets can be cut from a variety of methods – using turrets, lasers, or stage tooling – then formed. Forming in small quantities can be done on press brakes and can be done using forming stage tooling. In larger quantities, AmeriStar has a complete tool room manufacturing tooling in house including progressive dies stamping complex shaped brackets, such as this, in large quantities at very high speeds. After the parts were stamped and formed, all nuts and studs were welded into position.

The type of material used in each bracket differed based on the brackets’ intended use. These brackets were made of brass, tin plated with special hardware then silver soldered.

The orders, which were as small as 50 pieces, with some larger orders in quantities of tens of thousands per shipment, were completed and delivered in 4 weeks to the client’s Los Angeles location.
