What Reliable Pressings does - our mission.
Reliable Pressings is a key player in specialist industry pressing operations in South Africa and caters to all non-standard fabrication needs. We have five lines of business:
- Bespoke Metal Pressing & Stamping - Stamping (also known as pressing) is the process of placing flat sheet metal in either blank or coil form into a stamping press where a tool and die surface forms the metal into a specific shape.
- Hydraulic Deep Draws - Deep drawing is the method of bending and moulding steel metal by pressing the material into the required form as hydraulic force is applied to the full tonnage over the entire length of the stroke.
- Non standard Speciality Washers - We have one of the largest washer die set inventories in Southern Africa, and supply non-standard specialist washers from all materials to most of the fastener and engineering support services businesses in SA.
- Spring Steel Applications - DIN EN 10132-4 Cold rolled narrow steel heat treatment (quenching & tempering) using high carbon content non-alloy steel grades.
- Die & Tool making and workshop services - Our tool and die makers are specialist machinists who make dies, and tools used in manufacturing processes. They support our metal pressing service lines.
Where only a few items are required in the production process, ie less than 100, laser cutting is more economical, but once the volumes pick up, because our single main expense is the cost of the die and toolmaking, the marginal cost of manufacturing incremental volumes is much lower than in laser cutting. We have managed to save many of our customers as much as 40% on their laser cutting with a finish which is of consistently superior quality.
