Multi-Slide Stamping Equipment Solutions

Bihler Multi-Slide Stamping Machinery 

A multi-slide stamping machine forms flat sheets of metal into the shape needed to create a specific component. These machines press the substrate from multiple sides and angles for fast, precise metal formation. Multi-slide machines are cost-effective metal stamping solutions that are less expensive to produce than alternatives. At Bihler, we pass the production savings onto your business. 

Bihler multi-slide machines produce spring, strip and wire parts at any scale. Use a Bihler multi-slide stamping machine to work with materials like aluminum, carbon steels, high-performance copper, bimetals and high-strength chrome-nickel steels. Our equipment increases production speed by offering a powerful servomotor, minimal setup time and numerous tool storage areas. 

Bihler 4Slide-NC®

At Bihler, we offer peak precision and efficiency through the automated 4Slide-NC metal stamping machine. This servo-driven device addresses the substrate from four sides. Your device will quickly and accurately form metal using a forming slide, cutoff slide, mandrel, 7-ton press, 21-ton press and optional auxiliary. The substrate travels through a servo gripper feed or endless caterpillar feed. 

The 4Slide-NC’s ultimate feature is the VariControl VC 1 computer interface. The VC 1 automates the multi-slide to complete the tasks you need to do at the speed you need to complete them. Combined with integrated process and production monitoring, the 4Slide-NC improves productivity up to 50% for a rapid return on investment.
