Production Metal Stampings: Florida’s Partner for Precision Aluminum Extrusion & Machining
In Florida, where hurricanes, coastal infrastructure, and marine industries demand durability and precision, Production Metal stands out as a leading supply chain partner for Metal Stampings and Aluminum Extrusion Punching & Machining. From hurricane shutters to FDOT-compliant handrails, their expertise in shaped extrusion punching and shaped extrusion machining ensures high-quality, cost-effective solutions for industries across the Sunshine State.
What Are Production Metal Stampings?
Production Metal Stampings involve shaping flat metal sheets or aluminum extrusions into specific components using dies and presses. This process is vital for creating parts like brackets, panels, and frames with speed and accuracy. At Production Metal, advanced techniques like shaped extrusion punching—a method to cut precise holes or patterns into aluminum extrusions—ensure components meet strict industry standards.
Key Services & Solutions
1. Shaped Extrusion Punching & Machining
Shaped extrusion punching is the go-to method for secondary processing of aluminum extrusions. It involves using custom dies to punch holes, slots, or intricate designs into extruded parts. Benefits include:
-
Speed: Ideal for high-volume production.
-
Precision: Consistent results for complex geometries.
-
Cost-Effective: Reduces waste and labor costs.
Paired with shaped extrusion machining (refining parts via CNC milling or drilling), this process delivers components ready for assembly, such as FDOT Bullet Rail segments or Dock Ladders.
2. Extrusion Machining Centers
An extrusion machining center is a specialized machine that cuts, drills, and shapes raw aluminum extrusions into finished products. Production Metal uses these centers to craft:
-
Boat Towers & Lifts: Corrosion-resistant parts for Florida’s marine industry.
-
Solar Tracking Systems: Durable components for renewable energy fields.
-
FDOT Handrails & Guardrails: Safety-compliant designs for public infrastructure.

FAQs
Q: What’s the difference between stamping and extrusion?
A: Stamping shapes flat metal using dies, while extrusion forces aluminum through a mold to create long, uniform profiles.
Q: How much does an aluminum extrusion tool cost?
A: Tooling costs vary based on complexity but typically range from $1,500 to $10,000. Production Metal offers cost-effective solutions for small and large batches.
Q: What’s the best aluminum grade for extrusion?
A: 6061 and 6063 are popular for their balance of strength and workability. 6061 is ideal for structural parts, while 6063 offers smoother surfaces for finishes.
Q: What finishes do you offer for aluminum extrusions?
A: Options include anodizing, powder coating, and mill finish, depending on aesthetic and durability needs.
