Joining technology

Successful machine building no longer depends entirely on constructing systems using components, but increasingly also on process expertise and reliable subsystems.
The process of joining and press-fitting is much older than automated production technology. Automated processes with calculated parameters offer significant advantages: the reproducibility of force and speed during the joining or press-fitting process is much better, while the result ensures consistent quality.
Joining and press-fitting are key processes in the production of goods, and an important area in factory automation. That is why Festo now also offers self-contained systems in this field. We have many years of experience as a partner in the design and production of handling systems and drive solutions as well as expertise in processes. This enables us to offer exactly the right solution for countless joining and press-fitting applications, from low-cost components all the way up to a complete "servo press kit YJKP" package including software.
This means that oversized and therefore overpriced joining and press-fitting systems are a thing of the past. The solution we offer fits in precisely with individual requirements.

The modular servo press kit YJKP gives you just the software functions you need for your application. You get an extremely precise press-fitting system with a high level of repetition accuracy and an excellent price/performance ratio. Simple, cost-effective and quick to install.

Pre-assembled system kit

The right size for everyapplication: the YJKP consists of modular operating softwareand harmonised standard Festocomponents. With electric spindle drive, motor, motorcontroller, force sensor andcontrol system, you have everythingyou need for electricpressfitting applications up to 17 kN. All you have to do is integrate it!

Pre-installed, platform-neutralsoftware

The pre-installed operatingsoftware GSAY is ready to use straight away and you don't needto be a programming expert toparameterise it, it's that easy andintuitive. The modular softwarefeaturing application-specific functions can be used on a PC,iPad or other types of humanmachine interface and is
compatible with all types of platforms. Thanks to the function elementsin the software's integratedlibrary, joining and press-fitting processes are quick to configure and easy to implement.
