Peripherals:
Everything from a single source

Anyone planning a production line with metal-cutting processes quickly realizes that the complete machining of a component always requires peripheral processes as well. Our specialists take care of this work for you: We plan, procure, automate, and install complete manufacturing cells and production lines with all peripheral stations – everything from a single source.

All processes in view

Beyond the core processes of machining, we also consider all secondary processes: Cleaning, deburring, measuring, leak testing, welding, tempering, and packaging. We integrate and automate all peripheral stations necessary to completely manufacture components. This enables you to achieve maximum output with reproducible top quality.

Experience
for complete solutions

SW Automation has decades of experience in integrating secondary processes into highly automated lines. With a proven network of suppliers for special technologies and experts for automation, we put together the perfect production line for you as a complete solution – ready to switch on and from a single source.
