Stamtec SDS Series Servo‑Driven Press

High‑Torque Servo Drive Technology for Advanced Forming Applications

The Stamtec SDS Series Servo‑Driven Press combines a high‑torque, low‑RPM servo motor with a rigid straight‑side frame to deliver exceptional forming flexibility and precision. By replacing the traditional motor, flywheel, clutch, and brake with a direct‑drive servo system, the SDS Series provides full working energy even at low speeds, enabling superior control over slide motion and forming characteristics.

This makes the SDS Series ideal for demanding applications such as deep drawing, coining, warm‑forming, pulse forming, and the production of high‑strength or hot‑formed components.

Tonnage Range

660 – 2,400 US tons The SDS platform can also be customized for stroke, speed, rating point, and bed size to meet specific production requirements.
