What is a Progressive Punch Press?

Progressive Die metal stamping allows machines to operate on a continuous cycle and produce a part with every stroke of the punch press machine without interruption. With the punch press thousands to millions of the exact same part could be manufactured quickly and efficiently. The material is fed into the punch press, and through the progressive die, in exact increments, or progressions. Every stroke of the press feeds the same length of material. The speed at which progressive dies smash out parts can be lightning fast, to slow and deliberate, with each part being an exact duplicate of the part before.
