The manufacturing of fastener machinery for the aeronautics sector demands levels of precision, traceability, and reliability that allow no margin for error. In this industry, every screw, bolt, or threaded element is part of a critical system where structural safety is the priority.
As explained in Fastener + Fixing Magazine, at SASPI we are specialists in developing high-precision solutions for the manufacture of fastener machinery, combining mechanical robustness, digital control, and advanced technology to meet the most demanding standards of the aerospace sector.
GVevo: thread rolling machines designed for the aerospace sector
Our GVevo series of thread rolling machines is specifically designed to work with high-strength materials and aerospace alloys subjected to high levels of stress. With more than 60 years of experience in mechanical engineering, the GVevo combines:
- Cast iron body for maximum stability and vibration absorption
- Thermal expansion control to maintain micrometric tolerances
- Patented motorized die pressure adjustment system
- Programmable and repeatable control of cold deformation force
This level of control is key to avoiding material weakening during the rolling process, guaranteeing a thread of maximum quality and high fatigue resistance, an indispensable requirement in aerospace applications
Industry 4.0 and total traceability in certified manufacturing
In aerospace manufacturing, traceability is as important as precision. GVevo machines incorporate Industry 4.0 functionalities, including:
- Tool-less set-up
- Programable adjustments
- Integrated OEE performance monitoring
- Integration via MQTT and OPC-UA protocols
This allows for a seamless connection with factory monitoring systems and ensures total process control, which is essential for certified production environments.
MPA CL: technology for maximum flexibility in secondary operations
While the GVevo ensures thread quality, the MPA CL manages secondary operations such as:
- Pointing
- Facing
- Precision drilling
Its cam-less technology replaces traditional mechanical movements with fully programmable controls, offering superior flexibility for parts with complex or non-standard geometries, which are common in the aerospace sector.
The possibility of performing multiple high-precision operations in a single cycle:
- Reduces part handling
- Minimizes dimensional errors
- Decreases risks of damage
- Optimizes certified workflow
All adjustments are motorized and programmable, ensuring repeatability, efficiency, and consistent quality.
A comprehensive solution: GVevo + MPA CL
The combination of GVevo + MPA CL, along with feeding systems and complementary units, allows for the configuration of a unified, efficient manufacturing line prepared for the standards of the future.
In an environment where the demand for precision, quality, and traceability continues to grow, at SASPI we offer much more than machinery: we provide a strategic solution for manufacturers seeking reliability, technological innovation, and a competitive advantage in the aerospace sector.
