Abstract
First and second stamping press lines have multiple stamping stations to serially stamp first and second parts into finished form and with bench marks reflective of the different stamping stations that also interrelate with one another to show if the stations are stamping to specifications. The marks on a part finished by the first line ideally match with the marks on a part finished by the second stamping line providing a visual indicator of quality so that the two separate parts can be permanently secured together with assurance of a quality assembly. Bench marks on separate parts that do not align or conform with one another identify stamping lines and stamping stations requiring adjustment or repair.
