STIRPOWER series

The STIRPOWER series sets new standards in the field of heavy duty FSW machines. With the complex closed-loop measurement and control system, these machines guarantee the best weld results even under the most demanding conditions.

The high contact pressure of up to 150kN opens up new ways for our customers to weld thick sheet metals.

The machines of the STIRPOWER series are designed with 2 or optionally 3 axes, a B-axis with a maximum roation speed of the FSW spindle up to 3000 rpm. They are specially equipped to absorb the enormously high forces of the FSW process to be able to maximize the welding precision in order to deliver excellent welding results.

In addition, the machines are equipped with an FSW quality record, which enables the quality monitoring of the weld seams while the process is running. This results an optimal and stable process display especially for research and development.
