Waukesha Metal Products operates fully equipped tool and die facilities in Wisconsin and Mexico to support progressive die metal stamping, transfer stamping, and precision fabrication. Our in-house tooling teams give us a strategic advantage not only in how we launch new programs, but in how we adapt, maintain, and improve them over time.
We build dies, fixtures, and support tooling designed to perform in complex production environments across automotive, aerospace, defense, energy, and industrial sectors.
Capabilities That Improve Speed and Control
We design and build stamping dies to support long-run production, tight tolerances, and in-die processes like welding, measurement, and assembly. Tool and die manufacturing capabilities include:
- Progressive, transfer, and stage tooling
- Wire EDM, CNC milling, and turning
- Surface and wet grinding
- In-house heat treating
- Custom fixture and jig design
- Tool maintenance and repair
Our toolmakers also build fixtures used in fabrication and robotic welding operations, supporting tight control over formed parts and assemblies.
Why In-House Tooling Matters
Tooling built in-house works better because it’s built for our presses, by people who run them every day. When tooling challenges come up, our team is on-site and ready to troubleshoot fast — no delays, no guesswork.
This helps reduce lead times, streamline launches, and keep production running smoothly, even on complex jobs.
Disciplined Tooling for Complex Parts
From concept through production, every tool we design is supported by detailed process planning, validation, and collaboration between engineering, tooling, and production teams. We’ve also developed proprietary sensor technology that enables in-die validation and automation.
These practices reflect the mindset that defines WMP: disciplined, agile, and built for long-term performance.
