HMS offers short-run, deep draw stamping runs of 5,000 pieces or less. Design engineers and purchasing agents often consider a short-run, deep draw stamping house when the annual volume is less than 60,000 pieces when short production lead times are needed, or flexible, cost-effective tooling is required to accommodate eventual design changes.

Short-run deep draw stamping is also used when prototypes are sought prior to investing in more expensive, high-volume tooling or when expected part life is short. Finally, short-run deep draw stampings can supplement gaps in shipments caused by failures at domestic or offshore, high volume stamping houses.
