Worksheet
Die life card
One card per die number. The top block holds part, press, steel grade and starting cost, and a table below logs each run with date, start count, end count, scrap strokes and operator. A second table logs each removal with its reason, work done, stock removed and repair cost, while the footer totals strokes, retirement point and tooling cost per part.
Name: ______________________ Business: ______________________ Date: ______________
Scroll the table sideways to see every column.
