Set of Stamping Dies or Press Tools forms a vital, costly and time consuming element in the entire sheet part manufacturing process chain. Die Design defines the product quality, operating economics and productivity of mass manufacturing organization. Not only Stamping Die Design is being inadequately covered in most academic curricula; the coverage is too simplistic, academic and focused on specific CAD tool, making it largely a desktop event. It is generally not possible to cover the practical industrial part complexity, desired quality level and performance requirements.

Keeping this in view, IMTMA is organising a training program on "Design of stamping dies for sheet metal parts".

This program will be conducted by Mr. Avinash Khare.

Mr. Avinash Khare is presently working as a Consultant Head for IMTMA Pune Technology Centre for last 5 years; he has been designing, developing content and delivering wide range of Training Courses as a Faculty. He is Electrical Engineer by Qualification and he has worked for over 33 years at Tata Motors Pune in various capacities ranging from R&D in Industrial Electronics, Machine Maintenance, Technology Procurement, Head of Machine Shops, Tool Room Shop Head, Head of Die Design and Champion in Business Excellence. He has taught Instrumentation and Bio Medical Instrumentation at Pune University as part time faculty.
