Helping Buyers Source Precision Stamped Parts
Ray Chan works with metal stamping buyers across EV, automotive and electronics supply chains - from DFM review and tooling quotes to high-volume production ramp-ups. He shares the engineering and sourcing know-how behind ISTAMPING's precision stamping programs.
Ray has spent decades in precision stamping — running progressive dies for terminals, connectors, lead frames, shields and brackets, the small parts that sit inside bigger systems. He has seen the failure modes buyers are trying to avoid, and prefers to catch them on the drawing rather than on the production line.
DFM Review
Reviews drawings early and flags design-for-manufacturability issues — material utilization, bend radii, tolerances — before tooling starts.
Tooling & Production Quotes
Puts together tooling and piece-price proposals with realistic lead times, backed by ISTAMPING’s in-house tool room and press fleet data.
Program Ramp-Ups
Guides programs from prototype through PPAP approval to high-volume production, coordinating documentation and quality gates along the way.
