STIWA
Spindle presses


Power and intelligence combined: The fully integrated press system

The right force for each application
Three force classes (10, 20, 50 kN)

Intelligent system
Hardware, sensors and software are perfectly coordinated

Calibratable process monitoring
for fully documented and reproducible quality

Presses are one of the classic technology components of modern automation systems. But at STIWA, we do not see a spindle press as just a mechanical component. For us, it is an intelligent overall system in which high-precision mechanics, powerful drives and our own control software merge into a perfectly coordinated unit. The result for you: A completely integrated process that guarantees you maximum control, maximum accuracy and absolute reproducibility.

Objectives & Impact: 

The perfect combination of robust hardware and intelligent control software in a completely integrated system guarantees the highest reproducible quality in every single batch. Thanks to the floating-mounted force sensor, the actual pressing forces are accurately recorded, which further increases precision. The separately guided tool carriage also allows forces to be absorbed transversely to the press-in direction. The connection to your control system is simple and flexible via EtherCAT, Ethernet or other fieldbus systems on request.

Optional accessories: 

  • Clamping system for vertical installation with additional safety
  • Position measuring system for advanced process monitoring
  • Calibration system (hardware and software for cyclic self-calibration)
