Stampack GmbH

Based in Germany, Stampack GmbH specializes in advanced simulation software for sheet metal forming processes, providing innovative solutions that enhance production efficiency and accuracy for various industries. Founded in 2018 and headquartered in Germany, Stampack GmbH focuses on developing simulation software for sheet metal forming. The company was formed to address the industry's need for efficient design and simulation processes. It has completed one deal, with the most recent being an acquisition by AutoForm Engineering GmbH, a portfolio company of Carlyle Group, in October 2025.

The financial terms of the deal were not disclosed. Stampack GmbH specializes in advanced simulation software tailored for sheet metal forming processes, with two primary products: Stampack Xpress and Stampack Advanced. Stampack Xpress provides a user-friendly platform for tool designers to simulate various forming processes, including prototypes and progressive tools, without requiring extensive knowledge in finite element methods or material science. The software employs both shell and solid simulation techniques to accurately model forming processes, allowing designers to identify potential issues such as material failure and surface defects early in the design phase.

This capability enhances the method, ensuring dimensional accuracy and streamlining production. Its client base includes tool designers, method planners, and engineering departments across various industries, with a strong presence in Europe, North America, and Asia. Stampack GmbH generates revenue primarily through software licensing and subscription models for its simulation products. Clients engage in purchasing licenses for Stampack Xpress and Stampack Advanced, which can be offered as annual subscriptions or one-time fees, depending on their needs and operations scale.

The pricing structure reflects the software's value, catering to both small engineering offices and larger manufacturing firms. Transactions are structured on a B2B basis, enabling businesses to optimize their sheet metal forming processes. Additionally, the company may engage in partnerships for customized solutions, enhancing its revenue streams through tailored services. The acquisition by AutoForm Engineering GmbH in October 2025 allows for an expansion of capabilities and market presence.

Stampack GmbH plans to leverage this acquisition to enhance its product offerings and explore new market opportunities. Future initiatives may include the development of new software products aimed at improving simulation accuracy and user experience. Specific geographic regions targeted for expansion include North America and Asia, with plans to penetrate these markets further by the end of 2026.
