Manufacturing · Metal Stamping Company Management Software

Follow each die, coil lot and press run from setup to call-off.

Quotations, blanket orders, coil receipt, die history, press schedules and call-off deliveries share one record. Every run keeps its die, coil heat number, stroke count and good parts. Setters, press operators, inspectors and the dispatch desk read the same run, so punch wear and bin trace come straight from press entries rather than from memory.

Metal Stamping Company Management Software, configured by GullySystem, handles quotations, blanket orders, coil stock, die maintenance and press schedules. Each run records the die, coil lot, strokes, good parts and scrap. Tooling cost recovery sits beside the order. Deliveries are released against the customer’s call-offs, each with a delivery note.

Where it breaks today

What goes wrong before the software.

Die wear is judged by eye

A punch and its die button are ground only when burrs look wrong, because nobody kept the stroke count since the last regrind, so the worn edge shows itself mid-run. Oversize burrs are already in the bin.

Coil lots cannot be followed into the bins

A cracked batch is traced to one coil, but that coil cannot be tied to the bins already shipped, so the recall covers a whole week of parts. The fault sat in one heat number. Nobody could prove it.

Call-off changes reach the press late

The customer revises next week’s quantity by phone, and nobody tells the planner while the press is already fitted with a different die. The changeover is paid for before anyone knows. Bolster time is lost.

Tooling recovery is not monitored

A die is paid for through a per-part surcharge on each invoice, and nobody checks how much of the tooling cost has come back against parts shipped. Either the customer overpays or the shop does.

Skeleton scrap is sold without reconciliation

Skeleton strip leaves the yard by weight and is never set against coil issued and blanks shipped, so a shortfall in material yield hides inside the scrap sale. The weighbridge slip is the only record.

Outside steps hold up finished bins

Brackets go out for zinc plating or carburising on loose delivery notes, and nobody knows which vendor holds the bins or how many have come back. Finished parts wait. The call-off ships late.

How it runs

How the work flows through it, step by step.

1
Enquiry and tooling decision
A drawing and annual volume arrive. The estimator notes strip pitch, material grade and press tonnage, then records whether the customer pays for the progressive die or the shop recovers it through the part price.
2
Quotation and blanket order
Material weight, press rate, scrap allowance and tooling terms make up the price. An accepted quote becomes a blanket order with a standing quantity, and weekly call-offs release against it until the total is used.
3
Coil receipt
The mill certificate travels with the coil. Its grade, thickness, width, weight and heat number are booked in before the coil goes to a numbered rack bay, so the stores crew can find it again.
4
Setup and first-off
The planner sequences runs by die and press. The setter mounts the die, adjusts the stripper and feed pitch, threads the coil through the straightener, and gets first-off approved by the inspector.
5
Production and checks
Strokes, good parts and scrap are logged per run. Burr height, hole position and flatness are measured at the interval the control plan fixes for that part, and the readings stay on the run.
6
Outside steps and dispatch
Parts needing zinc plating or case hardening are booked out to the vendor on a delivery note. Finished bins are counted into the call-off at dispatch, and the invoice follows.

Modules

What is inside.

Every module can be switched on, left out or changed to match how your team already works.

Enquiries and drawing revisions

Log each enquiry with drawing, material grade and annual volume. Keep drawing revisions with the part, and link each die to the revision it was cut for.

Quotation by strip pitch and tonnage

Price from strip width, pitch, material weight and tonnage. A die funded by the customer is quoted as its own line, while one funded by you is spread across each blank sold.

Blanket orders and call-offs

Hold the standing order with its total. Release each weekly call-off against it, and read the open balance without adding up delivery notes by hand.

Coil receipt and lot trace

Book coils in with grade, thickness, width, weight and heat number. Each coil links to the runs and bins that consumed it, so a cracked heat is chased to the exact bins.

Die register and stroke counter

Hold every die with its bay, compatible presses, strokes since regrind and repair history, including punch, die button and spring changes. Dies close to the limit your toolroom set are flagged to the planner before the next run.

Press schedule and changeover

Plan runs by press tonnage and bed size. Sequence them by die to cut changeovers, and keep every customer call-off covered while the bolster plates are swapped.

First-off and in-process checks

The setter signs off the first piece. Later burr, hole and flatness readings sit under that same run, so an auditor reads one record instead of three clipboards.

Tooling cost recovery

Track the die’s cost against parts shipped. A customer-paid or amortised tool is closed out on a date read from the shipments, with the surcharge per part shown on each invoice.

Scrap and skeleton reconciliation

Weigh skeleton strip and rejected blanks against the coil issued. Material yield is then read per run, per coil and per part number, and a shortfall shows before the scrap dealer’s weighbridge slip does.

Outside steps, delivery and invoices

Send parts for plating or carburising on a delivery note, then print delivery notes and issue tax invoices in the customer’s currency.

Solutions inside

The business modules it is built from.

Each one is also available on its own, or inside a system built for you.

Quote & Proposal Management
A quote is built from strip width, pitch, material weight and press rate, with the die shown separately or recovered in the part price.
Order Management
A standing order holds the total quantity, and each weekly call-off is released against it with the open balance still visible.
Batch and Serial Tracking
Coils are booked with heat number and weight, and each one is linked to the runs and bins that consumed it.
Fixed Asset Register
Every die is held with its location, compatible presses and strokes since regrind, so wear is read from counts and not by eye.
Production Planning
Runs are planned by press tonnage and bed size, then sequenced by die so changeovers drop without missing a call-off.
Quality Control
Burr height, hole position and flatness are entered at the set interval, with the setter’s first-off approval kept on the run.
Job Work Management
Bins leave for plating or heat treatment on a delivery note, and returns are booked with a count before the call-off date moves.
Stock Tracking and Alerts
Coil issued, good parts counted and skeleton weighed are compared per run, and the difference is reported against the coil.

Services

How we would put it in.

Setup, data migration, integrations and anything built on top.

Who uses it

One system, each person sees their part.

For owners

See press hours, dies near regrind, tooling recovery outstanding, scrap sold and what each customer owes. All of it sits on one screen.

For planners

Sequence runs by die. Check coil on hand against call-offs. Move a run when a customer changes a quantity, and see which press frees up for the swap.

For die setters and press operators

Open the run, confirm the die and coil lot, then log first-off, strokes and scrap. The next setup is lined up on the same screen, with its die bay and feed pitch.

For tool-room and maintenance staff

Read stroke counts, schedule regrinds, and record repairs, shims and spring changes against the die. The history stays with the die for its whole life.

For stores, inspection and dispatch

Receive coil against the mill certificate, sign inspection checks, and ship parts against the call-off with a delivery note.

Reports

Good fit

Who this is built for.

Progressive die stampers supplying brackets and clips in volume
Deep drawing shops making cups, housings and shells
Companies that run blanket orders with weekly call-offs
Stampers that own dies for their customers and track recovery
Shops that send stamped parts out for plating or heat treatment

Honest answer

When it is not the right choice.

A shop with a single small press and no dies of its own can manage with a job book.
Sheet metal fabricators, laser cutting and CNC bending shops form flat parts differently and have their own products.

Made to fit

Adapted to your business before it goes live.

You are not handed a login and left to it. The product is set up around your records, your people and the tools you already use.

Presses and dies

Each press’s tonnage, bed size and stroke rate, and every die with its part number and strokes to date, are entered first, so the planner sees real capacity.

Coil master

Your grades, thicknesses, widths and coil suppliers are loaded, along with the mill certificate fields you keep. Heat number has its own field.

Regrind limits

Stroke limits per die, set by your toolroom, drive the flags the planner sees. A progressive die and a simple blanking die can carry different limits.

Customer terms

Call-off rules, tooling recovery terms and packing instructions are set per customer, including how many parts go in each returnable bin.

Outside vendors

Platers and heat treaters are entered with the processes they perform. Each shows its open lots.

Hosted by GullySystem

Press operators, toolroom staff and the billing clerk open one shared record on our servers. Export customers are invoiced in their own currency.

Common questions

Questions owners ask before a demo.

How does it know a die needs a regrind?

Each run adds its strokes to the die’s total. When that total nears the limit your toolroom set, the die is flagged to the planner ahead of the next run, so the regrind is booked before burrs grow.

Can it trace a bin of parts to the coil?

Yes. A run records the coil lot it used, and every bin from that run carries the number through to the delivery note. A cracked heat then leads to the exact bins, not the whole week.

How are weekly call-offs handled?

A blanket order holds the total. Each call-off releases a quantity with its own date, and the open balance stays visible to the planner and the dispatch desk. A revised quantity moves the run.

Can we track die cost paid by the customer?

Yes. The die cost is held against the order, and parts shipped reduce it as agreed. The closing date shows when recovery completes.

Does it read the press counter?

Not by default. Operators enter strokes and good parts at run end. A link to a press counter depends on the machine and is scoped separately.

Can scrap skeleton be reconciled?

Yes. Coil issued, blanks counted and skeleton weighed are compared for each run. The difference is reported against the coil and the die.

Does it handle outside plating or heat treatment?

Yes. Bins go out on a delivery note and come back with a counted return. The call-off date moves only after that return is booked.

Can open orders and die records be loaded?

Yes. We key in orders, dies, stroke totals and coil stock, then the planner checks each figure against the die bay and the rack before the first live shift.

What does it cost and how can we see it?

The price depends on press count, users and integrations. A sample is prepared around one of your dies and a coil first, and the written proposal follows.
