Tool and Die Fabrication Solutions

Tooling is a critical investment in your equipment.  MAINWAY builds dies that are built to run.  We know how to communicate with your team to understand your product goals, your manufacturing parameters, and your other die build criteria. 

During the past 40+ years we have built successful dies of all types for the most demanding customers on earth.  They enjoy quality parts and long service life from their dies because we’re stampers too; our dies are built first to last.

Because we’re stamping experts too, we provide advice on how your tooling design will behave in production. As a result, our dies are easy to install, they run from day one and maintain integrity over time.

TOUCH
In-House Everything
In-House Everything

Unlike other design facilities and job shops, we keep all services in-house – from design to finished part. An “in-house everything” approach delivers turnkey solutions, maintaining control on  lead times and quality of your metal stamping dies.

Industry Experience
Industry Experience

Come to MAINWAY when you need sustained quality in heavy-duty situations – we’re talking automotive, appliance, military, trucking, construction, and agricultural jobs. We’re most famous for heat transfer components, but excel with any type of machine design.

Our Precision Die Specs

 

Brands

Since we also stamp in-house, we invest in only the top makers of die-making machines and software (and we’re flexible on which software you’d prefer). We rely on top press brands like Dahlih, Robocut, Hartford, Blow Press, and others.

Tonnage

Thanks to the size and diversity of our array of presses, we can match your specs and material properties to the right machine.

Feedlines

Our systems run large volumes at maximum efficiency. What’s more, they provide enough dimensional accuracy to meet tolerance requirements for aerospace, auto, and other mission-critical industries.

Metals

We build metal stamping tools in a variety of steel types to suit your demanding application. We understand exactly how your end product’s high-performance and exotic materials will hold up against our tooling.

Bed Sizes

MAINWAY’s largest bed is 72” front-back and 132” left-right. Our largest bed with a feedline is 60” front-back and 96” left-right.

Servo Press Sizes

Your operation is all about efficiency, so our presses specialize in cutting maintenance and energy costs.
