our manufacturing technologies

SPN Schwaben Präzision is the technology-independent drive designer. The innovative manufacturing technologies used underline the drive to always manufacture at the highest level. Careful selection and implementation of the relevant technologies increase the competitiveness and profitability of the company.

This enables us to develop new products to meet the needs of our customers and the market.

 

SPN is the high-performance manufacturer of drives, gearboxes and gears.

Our production site in Nördlingen impressively reflects this in its machinery.

gearing

We know gears inside out. Even in the early days of SPN Schwaben Präzision, gears were manufactured for watch production. We use the latest technology to ensure the highest precision of our parts.

 

Gear shaping: ø 3000 x 275 mm
Gear shaping with automation: ø 180 x 330 mm
Hobbing: ø 500 x 1000 mm
Gear hobbing with automation: ø 105 x 350 mm
Gear rack milling: ø 2000 x 100 x 100 mm

wire edming

[Translate to EN:] Drahterodiermaschine Sodick ALC 600

Sodick ALC 600 wire-cutting machine

Component height: up to 340 mm 
Taper angle: up to 45°

 

Sparks are generated by a sequence of electrical voltage pulses, which lead to material removal. Wire EDM is often used to create complex shapes and contours in metal that are difficult to achieve with other processes. Very high accuracies and surface qualities can be achieved.

griding

Flank grinding machine Liebherr LCS150

Bore grinding: ø 300 x 600 mm
External cylindrical grinding: ø 450 x 100 mm
External cylindrical grinding with automation: ø 100 x 250 mm
Flank grinding: ø 350 x 750 mm
Worm grinding: ø 100 x 3000 mm
Surface grinding: ø 1200 x 400 mm

 

If high quality with high profile accuracy is required, we rely on the latest technology in the field of flank grinding. Depending on the requirements of the gears and the specific applications, different processes and grinding tools can be used.

 

Turning

Hard turning:      
Turning of bar stock: up to ø 90 mm
Turning of saw cuts: up to ø 300 mm

 

We use the latest CNC technology for turning. Sophisticated machining of forged components, saw cuts and the machining of bar material are possible here. We can also offer hard turning of components
