Why Choose an Electric Servo Press for Component Assembly? 

Electric servo press technology offers two key advantages that make it an ideal choice for component assembly: First, Servo presses provide precise control over pressure, speed, and position throughout the pressing process. This minimizes the risk of damage to parts, significantly enhances product quality, and boosts production efficiency. Second, Servo presses are highly energy-efficient, as they directly convert electrical power into mechanical energy during operation, eliminating the need for standby power. Compared to traditional hydraulic presses, they can save up to 70% of electrical energy. In contrast, hydraulic presses first convert electrical energy into hydraulic energy before transforming it into mechanical energy, leading to high standby energy consumption. This inefficiency makes hydraulic presses less viable for cost-effective production today.

Common Applications of Servo Presses in Assembly

1. Connector Installation

Electric servo presses use a servo-driven system with force feedback, offering an easily programmable pressing system. Operators can pre-program product parameters, store multiple production recipes, and switch between them as needed. This flexibility significantly boosts production efficiency.

2. Car Parts/Automotive Part Assembly

With positional repeatability within ±0.0005", XIRO Electric Servo Presses provide consistent quality for repetitive tasks in automotive part assembly. This ensures rapid, large-scale production of parts that meet stringent industry standards, maintaining uniformity across batches.

3. Seal and O-Ring Installation

When dealing with seals and O-rings of varying types and sizes, a servo press provides precise control to ensure correct installation. This prevents damage to sealing profiles, making the process versatile and cost-effective, reducing production costs by enabling one machine to handle multiple tasks.

4. Bearing Press Fit

Servo presses are frequently used for bearing press fits because the quality of bearings depends on the precise alignment between the shaft and housing. The servo motor’s operating principle enables real-time monitoring and control of force, speed, and position during each press cycle. Additionally, it allows mid-stroke stops to prevent bearing damage.

5. Gear Assembly

Electric servo presses precisely control pressing forces to meet the high demands of mechanical component assembly, ensuring accurate and consistent gear assembly.

6. Medical Device Assembly

The high precision of XIRO electric servo presses makes them ideal for assembling medical devices such as syringes and medical tubing. Since servo presses rely solely on electrical energy and do not use hydraulic oil, they are particularly suitable for the sterile and automated production environments required for medical equipment.

7. Appliance Parts

Beyond heavy industrial manufacturing, servo presses are widely used in assembling appliance parts, such as air conditioner components and compressor parts, ensuring precision in production.

In addition to the above, servo presses can also be used for pressing optical components, battery cells, aerospace components, and more.
