About the product

Air duct production lines

We have been a pioneer in air duct production since the 1960s, building strong and long-standing application expertise. Today, we are the leading supplier in this field, with over 90 lines delivered globally and extensive tooling experience. Our complete systems covering presses, automation, and tools are tailored to produce bends, reducers, end caps, and branches.

Flexible line concepts support everything from start-up and low-volume production to full-capacity solutions, including production of sheet-based components in various shapes such as rectangular, square, rhomboid, and trapezoid, as well as rectangular with elliptical ends. Whether investing step by step or from day one, scalable layouts ensure high performance and efficient, reliable manufacturing.

Integrated system delivery

A press line reaches full performance only when all components are designed as one system. While individual machines can be assembled into a line, this often results in suboptimal integration where tools, press, and automation are not fully aligned.

We deliver complete, fully integrated systems, where press, automation, and tooling are engineered together. Functions such as cushion, additional cylinders, control systems, and HMI (human-machine interface) are optimized for the specific application. This ensures seamless interaction, reliable performance, and maximum efficiency across the entire production line.

High output performance

Our air duct lines deliver predictable, optimized output for each part type, ensuring efficient and consistent production. Fast changeovers, typically completed within minutes by trained operators, enable high flexibility, reduced downtime, and reliable performance across varying products and production volumes.
