Competitive advantages through technological lead
The demands on the quality of components continue to grow – as do those on the optimization of production processes and cost savings. Our development team can meet both requirements: With sound and proven knowledge of system design, mechanical and electrical construction and control technology commissioning, right through to complete system testing. This is how we develop the right solution for every requirement.

 

We specialize in ECM, PECM and laser technologies. We can combine these with automation systems, cleaning technology, state-of-the-art measuring sensors, intelligent handling of data and interfaces and ease of operation for the machine user. This allows our customers to keep everything under control, from the blank to the finished end product.


ECM technology

Electrochemical metal machining (ECM) is a non-contact machining process. It allows workpieces to be deburred precisely and efficiently without contact and therefore without any thermal, chemical or mechanical influence. The process is used in areas such as aerospace technology, the automotive sector and toolmaking.

Maintained by stoba – service also for ECM machines from other manufacturers
Under the slogan “Maintained by stoba Customized Machinery”, we provide service, maintenance, advice and repairs for all ECM systems – regardless of whether they are our own or third-party products. Of course, we also take care of the appropriate spare parts and their installation.

 

Regular maintenance for lasting good performance
Production downtimes are expensive, they cause downtime and high service costs. That’s why we recommend regular maintenance of stoba machines and systems. Our service teams ensure the availability of the machines as part of maintenance contracts. To this end, we offer our customers preventive maintenance cycles that are tailored to their needs.

Close at hand, even from a distance. Our remote support:
The fastest way to get help is via the Internet: Our service technicians establish a connection to the machine’s control system via a secure VPN connection. Our system shows us a detailed image of the system in a matter of seconds – worldwide, around the clock. 90% of all inquiries can be resolved quickly in this way.
We can also use the VPN connection to help staff on site to write new user programs. The VPN pays for itself after just one service call. And if a service call is necessary on site, our programmers and service technicians can easily provide support via remote maintenance if required. The application was specially developed for industrial requirements and therefore offers everything that is important: the employee at the machine has his or her hands free and the system works in cold zones just as well as in very hot environments.

 

The advantages of remote maintenance at a glance:

  • Real-time support anywhere in the world
  • Fast localization of faults
  • Optimum use of resources
  • Low service costs

Retrofit for machines and systems – modernizations for the highest demands
In addition to project planning for new ECM machines, stoba Customized Machinery also offers the modernization of older systems – for our own machines as well as for machines from other manufacturers. Our experienced engineers and technicians use their extensive knowledge of machine tools from a wide range of manufacturers to replace existing machine and system parts with more modern and productive components. This may involve, for example, generators, the machine control system, the electrolyte circuit and much more. Thanks to this approach, machines and systems are brought up to the latest state of the art in the shortest possible time – a machine overhaul with added value, as the constant purchase of expensive new machines becomes superfluous!


The technical overhaul of your machines by our retrofit team has many advantages:

  • Integration of current components
  • Adaptation of the safety technology to the current state of the art
  • Comprehensive, in-house engineering for software, hardware and mechanics
  • Extensive safety testing of the overhauled system by stoba experts with many years of experience, thus ensuring maximum functional safety
