Meusburger is addressing the need for reliable guiding and positioning of metal strips in stamping technology with a wide range of standardised active parts designed to support consistent and efficient manufacturing processes.
The company states that standardised components simplify the entire development and production process by enabling precise strip guiding and positioning without the need for individual component adjustments. This helps reduce design effort, shorten lead times and lower costs.
The range includes various active parts developed to meet the requirements of modern stamping processes. According to Meusburger, users also benefit from simplified maintenance and replacement procedures, reduced downtime, fast integration into existing designs and immediate component availability.
New in range: Guide bush with male thread E 5708
The new guide bush with male thread, with collar E 5708 makes the installation and removal of round active parts with collar possible directly from the working plane. The space-saving screw connection using a hexagon head makes maintenance easier and greatly reduces downtimes. The fine thread with core hole diameter that matches the installation diameters of the springs further simplifies plate machining. Thanks to the fitting diameter and precise fit of the collar the bush is also suitable for applications where positioning is critical, such as for pilot pins.
Adjustable infeed guide for flexible applications
A key solution in the range is the adjustable infeed guide. This in-house design from Meusburger makes reliable strip feeding with high flexibility possible. The metal strip is guided by infinitely adjustable needle roller bearings which make different strip widths possible without additional adjustment being necessary. A particular highlight is the version which is spring-loaded on one side (E 5620). It compensates for the width tolerance automatically and allows easy adjustment of the spring force to the different materials and strip thicknesses. An additional economic advantage results from multiple use: one infeed guide can be used for several dies, which reduces overall costs.
Precise positioning with the strip stop E 5625
With the strip stop E 5625 Meusburger has expanded its range with a solution for fast and exact positioning when inserting and stamping new metal strips. With its spring-loaded release function and innovative design, the strip stop is easy to operate – it is reset automatically with the first stroke. This reduces set-up times and makes the overall stamping process more efficient. This innovative solution earned Meusburger the silver ‘best Award’ at the Blechexpo 2025.
Less effort, more efficiency
Customised components not only create more design effort but also lead to additional costs in manufacturing and warehousing. Standardised components offer a cost-effective alternative here. CAD data is immediately available and can be integrated into the design without additional editing. All components are optimally coordinated and available from stock at short notice. This means a noticeable reduction in process complexity and makes it possible to realise projects even faster.
With its range of active parts for strip guiding and positioning, Meusburger offers practice-oriented solutions for the challenges of modern stamping processes.
