SOCKETS & LIGHT SWITCHES

In this multi-product STIWA production line, sockets and light switches are assembled, tested, labeled and then packed into 
cartons. 

The output is less than one second per finished part. The products are manufactured in various production steps. The parts are automatically packed in 10-pack cartons. Pre-assembled products are placed on a separate output belt for manual processes and completion.

ASSEMBLY, INSPECTION & PACKAGING

Fully automatic assembly of sockets and switches including quality control and packaging. After assembly, finished parts are sent directly to the packaging system and 
are placed in cartons.

MANY PRODUCT TYPES – SHORT SETUP TIMES

Machine performance with cycle times of less than one second, with a very high variation of product types and minimal setup times. More than 60 feeders replace the manual loading of the machine with components.

CHECK OF PRODUCT SAFETY

Pendulum movements and check pins test contact protection (=shutter) for its functionality, in order to ensure maximum product safety during the assembly process.

Gira relies on ‘Made in Germany’. With cycle times of up to 120 tested and packaged parts in 2 minutes with tested quality, we ensure our international competitiveness at the German manufacturing site.
