BAUMANN pressfit


Solution for Press-Fitting Connectors and Printed Circuit Boards

Precise press-fitting for maximum process reliability

With the pressfit cell from Baumann Automation, you can automate the precise and repeatable press-fitting of connectors and printed circuit boards. Based on the proven lean|box platform, the solution combines high flexibility, short changeover times and reliable process monitoring in a compact automation cell.

Individually configurable pressfit automation

Each pressfit cell is designed to meet customer-specific requirements and can be optimally adapted to different printed circuit boards, connectors and production processes. Interchangeable workpiece fixtures and adaptable press heads enable fast product changeovers with minimal downtime.

The modular design ensures maximum flexibility – for both current products and product variants.

Typical applications:

  • Press-fitting connectors
  • Press-fitting pins into printed circuit boards
  • Contacting electronic assemblies
  • Automated assembly of electronic components

pressfit – reliable press-fitting with a systematic approach. 

The pressfit cell is our solution for precise, fully integrated press-fitting processes – for applications such as connectors and printed circuit boards. With a servo press featuring force/displacement monitoring, interchangeable adapters and intelligent inspection technology, we provide highly flexible press-fitting solutions with a compact footprint and minimal changeover effort.

Precise Press-Fitting Process with Integrated Quality Control

At the heart of the system is a servo press with force and displacement monitoring, which precisely monitors and documents every press-fitting operation. This ensures consistently high process reliability.

For additional quality assurance, various inspection methods can be integrated:

  • Pin check to verify the presence of contacts
  • Pin height measurement
  • Protrusion check before the press-fitting process
  • AOI-based pin height inspection

Flexible expansion for individual production requirements

The pressfit cell can be expanded to suit your requirements. Depending on the application, additional modules can be integrated, for example:

  • Separate loading and unloading stations
  • Missing-part sorting
  • Part feeding based on the Chaku-Chaku principle
  • Separate pin check
  • Automatic pin height inspection (AOI)
  • Auto-eject for particularly fast product changeovers

Thanks to its modular platform, the solution remains a future-proof investment, while adaptations for new products can be implemented cost-effectively.

Compact, cost-effective and quick to integrate

The pressfit solution is based on the proven lean|box platform and offers a compact footprint combined with excellent accessibility. The integrated control cabinet and intelligent system design enable short lead times, low integration costs and fast changeovers.

Depending on the application, different cell sizes are available, ranging from 600 × 600 mm to
1,400 × 1,400 mm
