BUSINESS DIVISION VEHICLE INTERIOR
Our Verinno - the edge-folding system available in different sizes
In the Vehicle Interior business division, our edgefolding
systems for processing arm rests, doorpulls, or
interior panels are a main application.
Our Verinno consists of a press system – called
a “clasp” – and as many rapid-change tools as
necessary. All component-specific functions for
processing the respective product are saved directly
in the tool. This means that any tool in any clasp is able
to function without programming effort.
The AKE systems can be used flexibly at different
locations, and are characterised by output of
components which are 100% free of reworking. On
request, AKE also supports its customers in the design
and construction of trimmers and of energy direction
sensors. The Verinno is used above all in edge-folding
processes for back-moulded column coverings, and
has established itself with many automotive suppliers
as the standard system.
We have now further developed the system: the
same principle, but much more space in the tool, and
32 tons press force. Amongst other things, this XL
variant of the Verinno is used for laminating car boot
load trays or parcel shelves. The system can process
components of sizes up to 1100 x 1700 mm. For this,
it is possible to link the system to various upstream
or downstream processes. Also for the larger system
the intelligence is located in the tool, similar to our
standard Verinno. Numerous manufacturing and
assembly processes can be implemented in the
Verinno, such as laminating, edge-folding, assembly,
stamping, welding, or riveting.
The AKE Verinno is now available in three different
sizes: our standard Verinno for numerous applications,
from arm rests to column coverings – a smaller variant
for special applications which have to implemented in
the minimum of space – and now, completely new,
the XL Verinno, which is used for large components
and where a higher press force is required. With
these three sizes, we can optimally cover the various
requirements of our customers and respond to their
needs.
