Production Equipment Engineering

Steu­ra­tech is not a glo­bal player – but part of your team.

Is your pro­ject too small for the large play­ers in spe­cial-pur­pose machi­nery? For us, it’s exactly the right size. We focus enti­rely on small, cus­tom auto­ma­ti­ons, fix­tures, and gau­ges that enable major impro­ve­ments in your manu­fac­tu­ring pro­ces­ses. Small does not mean less com­plex. We pro­vide pre­cise, effi­ci­ent enginee­ring and com­mis­sion the solu­ti­ons tog­e­ther with you.

Your pro­ject mat­ters. To you and to us.

Our Services

Automation:

Auto­ma­ting manu­fac­tu­ring pro­ces­ses can be com­plex and expen­sive. But it doesn’t have to be. We spe­cia­lize in clo­sing the gaps in your pro­duc­tion that large spe­cial-pur­pose machine buil­ders pre­fer to avoid. If your solu­tion is available as an off-the-shelf pro­duct, you should buy it. If your solu­tion costs more than €200,000, you should work with a large spe­cial-pur­pose machi­nery manu­fac­tu­rer. For ever­y­thing in bet­ween, we are your part­ner.

Assembly Fixtures:

Many assem­bly tasks do not require or jus­tify full auto­ma­tion. Take advan­tage of manual fix­tures or semi-auto­ma­ted solu­ti­ons to signi­fi­cantly improve your pro­duc­tion. The sin­gle-part fee­ding of com­pon­ents increa­ses effi­ci­ency. The cor­rectly ori­en­ted and posi­tio­ned part pro­vi­sio­ning impro­ves qua­lity. We pro­vide full enginee­ring sup­port for the small step that makes the dif­fe­rence.

Testing Fixtures:

Some­ti­mes it’s worth kno­wing at exactly what tor­que a safety clutch actually dis­en­ga­ges, or at what axial force a pin beg­ins to slip. If you curr­ently mea­sure vis­co­sity, coa­ting thic­k­ness, solid objects, or simi­lar pro­per­ties using manual devices, we are happy to inte­grate these mea­su­re­ments fully or semi-auto­ma­ti­cally into your pro­cess chain.

Clamping Fixtures:

Whe­ther for machi­ning ope­ra­ti­ons, clam­ping sheet metal parts in a wel­ding cell, or repeata­ble, accu­rate fix­tu­ring of com­pon­ents in a mea­su­ring machine – the right clam­ping fix­ture is the foun­da­tion of a good result. When­ever one or more com­pon­ents need to be secu­rely clam­ped and pre­cis­ely ali­gned, we are your first point of cont­act.

Workpiece Carriers and Component Holders:

Even the lar­gest and most sophisti­ca­ted trans­fer sys­tem, regard­less of its tech­ni­cal basis, can­not ope­rate wit­hout sui­ta­ble work­piece car­ri­ers. The same often applies to robo­tic auto­ma­tion. What truly mat­ters is how your com­pon­ents and work­pie­ces are held. Modi­fy­ing exis­ting com­po­nent hol­ders is often the simp­lest and most cost-effec­tive way to imple­ment a pro­duct rede­sign in your pro­duc­tion.

Inspection Gauges:

Our inspec­tion gau­ges are indi­vi­du­ally tail­o­red to your com­pon­ents and allow for fast and relia­ble veri­fi­ca­tion of fea­tures. Posi­tion gau­ges, laby­rinth gau­ges, wire gau­ges, inspec­tion pins, con­tour gau­ges – we design accor­ding to your inspec­tion requi­re­ments. Whe­ther wire bra­ckets, tur­bine blades, die-cast parts, or your spe­ci­fic com­po­nent: with our inspec­tion gau­ges, you can quickly and relia­bly deter­mine whe­ther ever­y­thing fits.
