Module systems
– profitability and flexibility thanks to standardised tools
Module systems for progressive stamping
STEINEL's module system combines the advantages of a standardised tool with the necessary flexibility for parts production. It comprises a standardised basic design and individual tool modules that are interchangeable, which ensures that your production remains extremely flexible and that retrofitting is quick and cost-effective.
The basic structure of the module system consists of a lower and head plate connected by guide pillars and already incorporates all the spring systems needed to generate blank holder forces and the sensor system for double-strip monitoring. It only has to be installed in your machine once and can then be fitted with different tool modules according to production requirements.
It doesn't get faster than this
The basic tool structure only has to be installed in your machine once and can then be fitted with different tool modules according to production requirements.
Both the basic structure and the standardised modules can be increased in size incrementally and adjusted as needed.
As we use a high number of stocked standard parts and standardised semi-finished products, we can customise both the basic structure and modules to meet your requirements and supply them within a very short space of time. If the basic structure is already installed in your production machine, it only takes a few minutes to fit it with different tool modules.
A worthwhile investment
Once you have invested in the basic structure and first modules, you can achieve significant design and toolmaking savings for all progressive tools.
Further savings are achieved through the use of standards and improved machine utilisation thanks to rapid retrofitting between product series.
In addition, the pre-installed basic structure minimises setup errors and increases process reliability.
All clear competitive advantages that you should tap.
