Sorting of Screws, Bolts, Nuts & Washers with our Sorting Systems

Whether in household appliance manufacturing, mechanical engineering, or the automotive industry: the assembly processes of many of our customers are designed for high precision. The reliability of the feeding process – including highly precise fasteners – plays a significant role here with regard to the quality of the end product and the operational reliability of production. With reliable sorting services based on state-of-the-art technological processes, we also support our customers in the reliable supply of highly precise screws, bolts, nuts, and washers.

Quality requirements have increased across all industries, often with the goal of “zero defects”. With our sorting based on customer-specific characteristics, we help you achieve your quality goals. For you, we inspect, for example, dimensions, threads, wrench flats, surfaces, and coatings, as well as defined defect-free conditions, and reliably sort fasteners according to the individual criteria or tolerance windows agreed upon with you. Thus, through our professional and customer-specific sorting, you ensure trouble-free processing of fasteners in your production process, without having to carry out labor-intensive and costly sorting processes yourself.

We perform our sorting services using state-of-the-art technology. For example, sorting machines are used for highly accurate mechanical sorting, such as our glass plate and slot plate systems. In addition, we have several high-tech inspection systems for visual inspection using state-of-the-art optical methods. If required, eddy current technology is also employed.
