Defense

The defense industry requires sheet metal forming solutions across a wide spectrum of applications, from ammunition components to large structural parts for shipbuilding and aerospace. The need for precision, traceability, and consistent quality is high, and production volumes can range from small verification batches to full-scale 24/7 operations. Fully automated and integrated press lines for press hardening, aluminum forming, and deep drawing are all part of the picture.

The challenge

The right setup for low and high volume

A common challenge in defense manufacturing is finding the right balance between low-volume and high-volume production. Early on, you need to verify end-product quality while running at small volumes. As demand grows, the production setup must scale without compromising the quality and precision established during verification. Getting this transition right requires equipment that is flexible enough for the first phase and robust enough for the second.

Flexibility through modularity

A modular equipment platform makes it possible to start with a configuration suited for verification and low-volume production, and then scale up as requirements grow. The building blocks are engineered to work together in different combinations, so the line can evolve with your needs.

Synchronized for high OEE

High overall equipment effectiveness comes from well-integrated, synchronized equipment where press and automation work as one system. Reaching that level consistently requires both the right technical solution and a structured approach to implementation and optimization.

Our solution

Customized modular solutions

Our modular system and broad product range allow us to configure and build optimized production solutions ranging from test lines and small-volume setups to full 24/7 production lines with high output. Test lines are in many cases scalable and can be upgraded to meet higher demands for OEE and output as your production grows. When we are involved from an early stage, the line can be designed from the start with that growth path in mind, providing you with a solution that fits today and adapts for tomorrow.

Right quality from the start

With deep process knowledge and close collaboration, we help you establish the right quality level from the beginning and maintain it as volumes increase. Traceability, repeatability, and consistent results are built into the production process.

High OEE, high output

High OEE starts with how well press, automation, and line control are synchronized. When the equipment is properly matched and the line runs as one system, output goes up and unplanned stops go down.

Lifetime performance

We stay with you from early start-up through full production, with maintenance, optimization, and upgrades available throughout the full lifetime of the equipment.
