When national security depends on the reliability of every component, precision metal stamping becomes more than manufacturing—it becomes mission-critical engineering. Jennison Corporation brings decades of advanced manufacturing expertise to support the defense industry and the broader industrial base that sustains America's military readiness. Located in Carnegie, Pennsylvania, Jennison operates as a full-service precision metal stamping and machining facility capable of me

Introduction to Certifications Precision metal stamping is used to make parts that end up in everything from automobiles to medical devices. In many of these industries, a small error is not just inconvenient — it can stop production or even pose safety risks. That’s why certifications matter. They are more than paperwork; they set the framework for how manufacturers manage processes, reduce risk, and deliver parts customers can count on. Jennison Corporation holds several ce

Cutting Waste in the U.S. Sustainability is no longer just a public relations talking point. For manufacturers across the United States, it has become a core part of how they compete, plan, and win business. Customers are asking tougher questions about supply chains. Regulators are setting stricter energy and waste standards. And companies themselves are realizing that sustainable practices often lead to real efficiency gains. Precision metal stamping is sometimes misundersto

Introduction to Precision Metal Stamping Mistakes Design is where every precision metal stamping project begins. A drawing may look perfect on screen, but once it moves into production the realities of tooling, forming, and assembly quickly reveal whether the design was practical. If something is off — tolerances too tight, the wrong material selected, or features arranged poorly — the mistakes can multiply. Suddenly you are dealing with longer lead times, higher costs, and p

Find the Best Metal Stamping Company For You The wrong stamping partner can turn your project into an expensive nightmare that keeps you awake at night. You'll face blown budgets, missed deadlines, quality problems that cascade through production, and the stress of scrambling to find alternatives when your current supplier can't deliver. Yet most companies approach stamping supplier selection the same way they'd buy office supplies – focusing mainly on price comparisons. Here

Here's a question that stumps even experienced engineers: what's the real difference between progressive and transfer stamping? Both processes transform flat metal into complex parts, both use dies and presses, and both can produce high-quality results. Yet choosing the wrong one can blow your budget, extend your timeline, or leave you with parts that don't quite work as intended. The confusion is understandable. At first glance, these processes seem similar – metal goes in,

A Situation You get two quotes for what seems like identical stamped parts. One supplier says $0.50 per piece, another quotes $5.00. Your first instinct? Someone's trying to rip you off. But here's the twist – they might both be right. The truth is, sheet metal stamping costs aren't just about the metal and the machine time. There's a fascinating web of factors at play, each pulling the price in different directions. From the complexity of the tooling that shapes your part to

Industries We Serve When you're manufacturing components for a cardiac pacemaker, the tolerances and quality requirements are worlds apart from what's needed for an automotive bracket—yet both rely on precision metal stamping to deliver reliable, cost-effective solutions. This challenge of serving vastly different industries with a single manufacturing process has shaped our approach at Jennison for over 40 years. Since 1983, we've built our expertise by successfully navigati

Benefits of Local Metal Stamping Partners Picture this: It's Tuesday afternoon, and you just got word that your biggest customer moved up their delivery deadline by three weeks. Your overseas supplier can't accommodate the change—their next production slot isn't until next month, and even expedited shipping would take another week. Meanwhile, your competitor down the road just landed a similar rush order because their local supplier could pivot immediately. This scenario play

Metal Stamping vs. CNC Machining Choosing the wrong manufacturing process can derail even the most well-planned engineering project. One seemingly simple decision—whether to use metal stamping or CNC machining—can mean the difference between hitting your production targets and watching costs spiral out of control while deadlines slip away. At Jennison, we've spent nearly 40 years helping engineers navigate this exact decision. Both metal stamping and CNC machining are foundat

Choosing a Precision Metal Stamping Partner Finding the right metal stamping partner isn’t just about capacity or pricing—it’s about choosing a team that understands your goals, delivers consistent results, and helps your project stay on track from start to finish. If you’re sourcing stamped components in Pennsylvania , especially around Carnegie or the greater Pittsburgh area, there are plenty of options. But not all stamping shops are built the same. Some are general job

Precision Metal Stamping: An Intro If your job involves sourcing or designing metal parts, you’ve probably heard the term precision metal...

How Custom Tooling Impacts the Quality When you’re sourcing stamped metal parts, it’s easy to focus on specs, quantities, and price per piece. But underneath every successful project, there’s something else quietly doing the heavy lifting: tooling . The dies used in stamping—the ones that shape, cut, and form the metal—are custom-built for your specific part. And the quality of those tools has a massive effect on how your parts turn out, how long production takes, and how muc

Jennison Corporation is excited to announce that we are commissioning a new Doosan Puma V8300 vertical turning center. The new machine has maximum turning diameter of 32.7” with a swing of 33.5” and a maximum turning height of 30.7”. What Is a Vertical Turning Center? A vertical turning center is a specialized CNC machine tool that positions the workpiece vertically rather than horizontally. This configuration essentially takes a traditional lathe and stands it on end, creati

In addition to our extensive Wire EDM capabilities, Jennison Corporation this month added a specialty Wire EDM service of “Micro-finish”. The enhanced capability enables us to offer customers a 2 micro-inch polished finish on Wire EDM cutting services on parts up to 21.7”L x 14.6”W x 12”H.

Jennison Corporation is pleased to announce that we are commissioning a new 1500W fiber laser system. The new machine gives us much greater capabilities for laser cutting components and has a maximum cutting sheet size of 60” x 120”, with cutting thickness up to 0.600” in steel, 0.300” in stainless steel, and 0.200” in most non-ferrous materials.

Jennison Corporation is excited to announce that we are commissioning a new Haas VF5 vertical machining center to increase capabilities. The new machining center has a 12,000 RPM spindle, a 30 tool changing system, and a maximum machining envelope of 50”L x 26”W x 25”H.
