Precision Metal Stamping: Process to Part

Precision Metal Stamping: Process to Part

Woosung Solution delivers custom metal stamping services for miniature electromechanical parts, operating as a stamping parts manufacturer from tool design through continuous stamping, washing and drying. The clearest working example is the N10 Core — a miniature 8.5 × 8.5 × 2.0 mm laminated core stamped from 50W350 electrical steel for N10 series laptop micro motors.

What You Can Verify Here

Woosung stamps small precision metal components — laminated cores for laptop micro motors, busbar shell and cover sets, bottom covers and inverter parts — with a documented production route of continuous stamping, washing and drying.

On this page the N10 Core acts as the reference part: stamped from 50W350 electrical steel to a 8.5 × 8.5 × 2.0 mm structure compatible with N10 series motors. Where a figure is not fixed by that build, the engineering team confirms it against your drawing before quotation.Use the index on the right as a checklist: read the module, then decide what to send with your RFQ.

N10 Core 

  • Process selection Progressive, compound and single-hit stamping compared on part type and volume.
  • Material grade Electrical steel, copper and brass, stainless and aluminium — and when each earns its place.
  • Capability and tolerance The attribute list your drawing is checked against, including tolerance class and volume.
  • Worked example How the N10 Core moves from material to finished miniature core.
  • Scenario to specification Four stamped-part scenarios with the specification that decides each one.
  • Quote path What happens between sending a drawing and receiving production parts.
Process

Choose the Process Before the Material

Method drives tooling cost and part consistency more than any other decision. Volume bands, tooling investment and lead time depend on geometry, material and annual quantity — the engineering team confirms them at RFQ rather than quoting a generic range.

Stamping method Best fit for Volume band Tooling investment Lead time
Progressive / continuous stamping The process used for the N10 Core High-volume miniature parts where several cutting and forming steps run inside one strip; tight dimensional control on small features. Specify at RFQ Specify at RFQ
Usually the highest upfront tooling
Specify at RFQ
Compound stamping Parts that need multiple cuts or forms completed in a single press stroke, where flatness and feature alignment are critical. Specify at RFQ Specify at RFQ Specify at RFQ
Single-hit stamping Simple geometries, low volumes and evaluation or prototype builds before a progressive tool is committed. Specify at RFQ Specify at RFQ
Lowest upfront tooling
Specify at RFQ

Buyer decision: if the part is small, runs at high annual volume and needs repeatable geometry, progressive stamping is the shortlisted route. If the part is a one-off evaluation build, single-hit tooling keeps the commitment low before you scale.

Material

Material Selection Cards

Material choice follows function: magnetic performance, electrical conduction, corrosion resistance or weight. Only the 50W350 grade is documented for a part on this page; the other families are confirmed grade by grade against your drawing.

Magnetic

50W350 Electrical Steel

Thickness
0.50 mm class
Documented use
N10 Core

The grade specified for the N10 Core, chosen for stable core magnetic performance. In the designation, 50W350 the "50" denotes the 0.50 mm nominal thickness class and "350" the maximum core loss class — the mill grade sheet is confirmed at RFQ.

Conductive

Copper & Brass

Thickness
Specify at RFQ
Typical role
Busbars, conductors

Choose this family when electrical conductivity and heat spreading lead the requirement, as in conductor and busbar-type parts. Grade and plating are matched to your current rating.

Corrosion-resistant

Stainless Steel

Thickness
Specify at RFQ
Typical role
Covers, housings

Choose stainless when corrosion resistance and structural stiffness matter more than magnetic performance, for example on exposed covers and housing plates.

Lightweight

Aluminium

Thickness
Specify at RFQ
Typical role
Lightweight enclosures

Choose aluminium when weight reduction and thermal dissipation are the driving constraints, and the magnetic or high-conductivity properties of the other families are not required.

Capability

Inside the N10 Core: A Worked Example

One real part, followed from grade selection to finished component. This is the fastest way to see how the process, material and part decisions above connect.

  • Product materialElectrical steel 50W350
  • Production processContinuous stamping, washing and drying
  • Product specification8.5 × 8.5 × 2.0 mm
  • ApplicationLaptop small motors
  1. Material 50W350 electrical steel is specified for stable core magnetic performance in the N10 series motor.
  2. Form Continuous stamping produces the core in a progressive route with tight dimensional control — the page states it meets strict requirements for micro motor component size.
  3. Finish Washing and drying complete the production process, so the part leaves the line clean and ready for winding or assembly.
  4. Fit The 8.5 × 8.5 × 2.0 mm structure is compatible with N10 series motors and intended for limited-space integration inside a laptop micro motor module.

Buyer decision: if your part must hold geometry inside a miniature envelope while carrying magnetic duty, this is the route to benchmark — electrical steel, progressive tooling, controlled finishing.

Scenario

Scenario to Specification

Start from the application, not the part number. Each row names the specification that actually decides whether the stamped part works in service.

Micro motor core

Reference: N10 Core
Specify

50W350 electrical steel at 0.50 mm class, produced by continuous stamping with washing and drying.

Why it decides the part

Magnetic stability has to survive a 8.5 × 8.5 × 2.0 mm footprint inside a laptop micro motor, so grade and stamping consistency matter more than any cosmetic feature.

Busbar housing set

Reference: the busbar bottom shell and upper cover
Specify

A bottom shell and upper cover built as a matched set, with material, plating and tolerance stack agreed together.

Why it decides the part

Mating parts only work when the pair is tooled as one system, so the assembly fit between shell and cover is the acceptance criterion.

Enclosure bottom cover

Reference: Bottom cover
Specify

Flatness, mounting-hole position and edge condition as the primary controlled features.

Why it decides the part

A cover that is out of flat will not seat flush and will disturb the stack underneath, so flatness beats decorative detail.

Power conversion module

Reference: Inverter
Specify

The material, plating and tolerance stack that match the power stage, including clearance around live features.

Why it decides the part

In power modules the stamped part carries both a thermal path and a clearance duty, so the specification follows the electrical design.
