CAD tool design
Our process for designing punching and forming tools at ProTec Metalltechnik
As specialists in the design of stamping and forming tools, we understand that every step in the development process is crucial to the final quality of your product. Our experienced engineers and technicians combine specialist knowledge with the latest technology and thus form the foundation for the success of your project.
And this is how our process works:
1. Feasibility analysis with simulation
Before we tackle the actual design and construction of your tools, our process begins with a thorough feasibility analysis. We use advanced simulation software to check and optimize your design concepts. By simulating different scenarios, we can predict material behavior, analyze shape changes and identify potential sources of error in advance. This step is essential to minimize material waste and optimize lead time.
2. Method planning
In method planning we define the optimal manufacturing process. We examine which work steps are necessary and in which order they should be carried out for the best result. The planning also includes the selection of suitable machines and materials to ensure a high level of process reliability and cost-effectiveness. Creating detailed work plans enables transparent and smooth production.
3. Construction
The actual design of the punching and forming tools is the heart of our work. With the help of the most modern CAD systems, precise and detailed 3D models of your tools are created. Our designers view each project as unique and develop the tools tailored to your requirements. To do this, they not only take into account the desired function and shape of the end product, but also aspects such as production time, costs and longevity of the tool.
The entire process of designing punching and forming tools at ProTec Metalltechnik is characterized by precision and quality. We strive to offer you not just products, but real solutions - from the first idea to the finished tool. Our comprehensive expertise and the symbiosis of traditional craftsmanship and future-oriented technology enable us to design tools of outstanding quality and performance.

Feasibility analyses
As part of a feasibility analysis, we first check possible solutions with regard to their technical feasibility as well as the stability and reliability of the manufacturing process. We analyze the different approaches, identify risks and assess alternative options. If the limits of physics are reached, we will work with you to develop potential solutions.
In order to quickly evaluate alternative concept methods, we use the most modern software solutions. With this software we can simulate complete processes from deep-drawing tools to trimming knives to production and post-forming tools.
Method planning
Within our planning methods, we determine the production process step by step in detail.
We determine the tools, the sequence of operations and ultimately the finished component.
We attach great importance to economical production, taking into account the material, the number and type of press machines as well as their lifting speed and planned piece output.

construction
With our experienced team of designers, we are able to handle every task precisely and at the highest level of quality - be it for progressive composite, transfer or individual tools.
We consistently rely on a production-friendly design to ensure an increase in quality throughout the entire production process.
We work closely with our customers throughout the entire design process to ensure a high level of transparency.
In order to validate the tool designs, we simulate the processes and identify possible problems at an early stage - before they actually have to be tested. This means that these problems can be resolved in advance.
