Engineer's Corner

Tip of the Month
When designing parts out of sheet metal, be sure to ask the vendor to provide a tooling inventory. Try to use the punch and forming tooling they already have in your designs. This avoids both the cost and the expense of ordering custom tooling.
Our shop has its tooling inventory online for our customers to use.
