SDE-8018 Digital Electric Servo Press

Case Study: Stainless Steel Metal Fuel Cell Separator 

 
Model: SDE 8018 Digital Electric Servo Press 

Issue: Our client’s previous crank-motion press brought them unacceptable results: the parts it produced were too thin and sometimes cracked and the accuracy of the products was unreliable and often defective. 

Our Solution: Using its soft coining motion, the SDE 8018 Digital Electric Servo Press helped improve part production for our client in the following demonstrable metrics: 
  • Its slow-speed processing created parts that were five times the thickness of those produced by the previous press.
  • The die life was eight times longer, a cost-saving improvement for the client.
  • The SDE 8018 also improved bending accuracy (±10µm).
