STRONG JOINTS FOR THE INDUSTRY

You are a partner of the industry and are facing the challenge of reliably welding large components in constant quality? In that case, the technology of friction stir welding supplies you with the key advantages.

With modular machine systems, FOOKE offers process reliable overall solutions for the automatic manufacturing. We use our know-how and experience as long-time manufacturer of gantry milling machines and from numerous applications in the railway technology, the automotive and the aerospace industry, for the development of innovative machine concepts in the field of FSW.

 

From individual FSW systems up to a completely new interlinked manufacturing process, we supply overall FSW solutions for the industrial series production. Many years of experience in mechanical engineering, joining technology and our high in-depth production translate into efficient machine concepts, specially tailored to your needs.

Our turnkey solutions guarantee an optimized productivity and a high level of safety and reliability – worldwide. Discover new markets with our innovative FSW solutions!

 

From process consulting and development to production and commissioning, we carry out all processes for you.

Our tailor-made individual solutions in combination with an established system of standard components, assemblies and clamping concepts, ensure an effective machine concept that you can easily and efficiently use use when you take over.

For optimum parameters for your production, we conduct feasibility studies for your components in our Technology and Demonstration Center in advance.

After the acceptance, we are at your disposal with product support, process optimization, training and service. Fast response times, an extensive spare parts warehouse and worldwide service ensure the productivity of your plant.

 

YOUR REQUIREMENTS DETERMINE OUR SOLUTION

We do not offer off-the-shell FSW solutions because your machines must interact with specific processes in an individual environment.

Before we develop your machine concept, we analyse your production process: Which materials are used, how is the surrounding production designed, what demands do you have on your components and what are your quality requirements? All this knowledge is the basis for your FOOKE FSW team.

We only start development once we have established the relevant parameters in advance. We are always in close contact with you.


Our development team guides you through the entire process: from the machine to the software and maintenance, we provide you with solutions that are perfectly adapted to your needs.
