Our process for stamping your jewelry
1. Design concept
The first step in the jewellery stamping process is to design the motif or design to be printed. Designers create detailed drawings that will be used to make the dies and punches. This phase allows the final result to be visualised and any necessary adjustments to be made before stamping.
2. Manufacture of dies and punches
Dies and punches are made from the design created. These tools are generally made from hardened steel to ensure durability and precision. The manufacture of dies and punches requires great precision to ensure that the designs are faithfully reproduced.
3. Preparing metal plates
The metal plates, often made of gold, silver, copper or brass, are prepared for stamping. This includes cleaning and polishing to ensure that the surface is smooth and free from any impurities that could affect the quality of the stamping.
4. Stamping
The metal plates are placed between the dies and punches and then pressed with considerable force to print the design onto the metal surface. This stage can be carried out using manual or hydraulic presses, depending on the complexity and size of the design.
