We at Degele Manufacturing, through our fully equipped in-house tool and die department, has the advantage of designing, building, maintaining, and repairing tooling without the need to depend on third-party vendors. This quality of capability has a great impact on lead times reduction, quality control improvement, and fast responses given to changes or maintenance requirements. In-house tooling means constant performance throughout the program’s life and, thus, greater reliability and flexibility for our customers.

Of course, we at Degele Manufacturing have a tool and die department with the necessary equipment in-house, resulting in us being able to design, build, maintain, and repair tooling as required without depending on third-party vendors. This feature basically makes it possible to shorten the period of time from order to delivery, improve quality checks, and allow quick reactions when changes or maintenance come up. Having tooling done in-house guarantees that the quality would be the same for the entire program duration and it would also create more dependable and flexible conditions for our customers.

Due to stamping needing a custom tooling pre-payment, Degele Manufacturing usually experiences the best worth of domestic production at moderate to high volumes- frequently beginning from hundreds to thousands of pieces according to part complexity. Instead of the offshore sourcing, our domestic sourcing has the advantages of less MOQs, faster turnaround, easy engineering changes and less logistics risk. If the volume is lower we can suggest some other processes like machining or fabrication so stamping is not the most cost-effective solution.
