Promess Inc. recently achieved a milestone by delivering its largest Electromechanical Assembly Press (EMAP) Workstation to date.

Real-time data acquisition prevents defective parts at an auto parts manufacturer.

The UniCrimp 208 crimping press has a modern and user-friendly design.

ATTENDORN, Germany—GEDIA Automotive Group, a manufacturer of metal assemblies for car bodies and chassis, has ordered a new press-hardening line that will be accessible by people with disabilities. Designed by Swedish press company AP&T, the new line will enable staff with physical disabilities to monitor and manage the press-hardening process without hindrance.

Heat and vibration can facilitate disassembly of press-fit parts.

Localized heating can enhance the strength of clinch joints in high-strength steel.

A major advantage of clinching is that it will not damage anticorrosive coatings on sheet metal.
