Sometimes, like logos, they are part of the product design. For other situations, like critical instructions or markers, the intent is to make them permanent because the part may be painted in a separate operation, or things like labels might eventually wear off. This Solution Bulletin describes the difference between the two most common approaches\u2014Cold Forged Emboss and V-Line Stamping\u2014and provides some tips to optimize the results.<\/p>\n<h2>Cold Forged Emboss<\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-1394 alignright\" src=\"https:\/\/www.mate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/Cold_Forge.jpg\" alt=\"Cold_Forge\" width=\"225\" height=\"200\" \/><br \/>\nA normal punch stroke shears metal and creates a slug. The view below shows how material is forged upward by stopping\u00a0the punch stroke before the metal fractures and shears off as a slug. This process can raise material up to 50% of sheet thickness depending on ductility without fracturing the material. Very distinctive visible shapes or words may be formed to create a three dimensional effect, and may be any size up to the station maximum.<\/p>\n<h2>Tips:<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>Characters:\n<ul>\n<li>For clear definition and readability, raise characters at least .016(0,4) to .020(0,5) above the surface.<\/li>\n<li>Character width recommendations:\n<ul>\n<li>Cold Forged UP designs: a minimum width of 75% of material thickness<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-1396 alignright\" src=\"https:\/\/www.mate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/MK302341_thumb.jpg\" alt=\"MK302341_thumb\" width=\"163\" height=\"102\" \/><\/li>\n<li>Cold Forged DOWN designs: the minimum width can be reduced to 50% of material thickness if the text is being read looking down at the embossed characters<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li>To minimize the sheet distortion that results from forming metal, the form height should be as low as possible.<\/li>\n<li>The best Cold Forged Emboss results occur in material thickness ranging from 0.040(1,00) to 0.078(2,00).<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-1395 alignright\" src=\"https:\/\/www.mate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/MK302337_thumb.jpg\" alt=\"MK302337_thumb\" width=\"163\" height=\"110\" \/><\/li>\n<li>Tonnage is similar to that of punching a hole.

It requires relatively small force. Large, complicated images are possible using this technique. An accurate indication of each figure\u2019s size, shape and depth below surface are required.
