Automated Turning Technology Boosting Efficiency
At its facility in Bromma near Stockholm, the Swedish capital, Freudenberg Xpress® has invested in advanced, automated tool technology, making its small series manufacturing even more efficient and economical – to the customer’s benefit.
Turned seals from Freudenberg Xpress® are the first choice for small production runs. It would take several weeks to produce a tool for a classic injection molding process. A costly approach, it would not pay off for small volumes. The material attributes of turned seals from Freudenberg Xpress® are comparable to those of conventionally produced series parts.
Bromma is already the third Freudenberg Xpress® location where this highly advanced automated technology is proving itself. An integrated bar feeder system conveys the seal material to the CNC machine fully automatically. Manual activities are eliminated.
