FAGOR ARRASATE expands its portfolio in the field of forming technology and launches new standard forming presses in the medium press segment worldwide (i.e. with a press force of 6,300 kN, 8,000 kN, and 10,000 kN). In Germany, Austria, and Switzerland, the standard forming presses will be automated exclusively by DREHER Automation.
Having signed a cooperation agreement in the area of standard forming presses, FAGOR ARRASATE, one of the world's leading forming press manufacturers, and DREHER Automation, the European market leader in the field of press automation, are bundling their competencies in a bid to provide the best possible customer performance for a technically and economically optimal overall solution.
The cooperation between the two companies will offer the following advantages to their respective customers:
Joint market presence with a focus on small and medium-sized companies
The market focus for the new forming press spectrum is the entire supplier market of the automotive industry. The primary focus is on small and medium-sized stamping companies. In addition, new customers in the non-automotive market, particularly in the area of new technologies such as e-mobility, are to be approached and their business acquired.
In the future, the standard forming presses will be marketed in close cooperation through a joint local market presence in Germany.
