Automotive & Automobile

Production technology for the mobility of the future.

In the context of sustainable vehicle concepts, the demands on the powertrain and the high-performance assemblies installed are constantly increasing. The speed of innovation in the automotive sector is impressive. Modern vehicles place the highest demands on the engine, drive train (powertrain) and the high-performance components installed. Whether efficient combustion engine, advanced hybrid or purely electric drive – the focus is on precision, mass and load capacity of the key components. The overriding goal: maximum efficiency. Low moving masses, high torques, the minimization of thermal stresses, the use of new material combinations as well as sophisticated component geometries and filigree thin-walled structures pose enormous challenges for the manufacturing processes – and especially for the clamping technology. This means that vehicles can continue to be moved particularly efficiently, safely, dynamically and reliably in the future.

Tailor-made: like the workpiece itself.

We also develop and manufacture our clamping and machining solutions in the same way that high-precision individual parts meet the highest demands in innovative applications: with micrometer precision, smart and precisely tailored to your needs.

Development partner from concept to commissioning.

Whether it’s a new machine, a retrofit, or the modification of existing machine tools, STERMAN supports projects from the initial idea and design through engineering, manufacturing, and assembly to commissioning—and, upon request, well beyond that. With a value-added ratio of over 85 percent, our solutions are primarily manufactured at our facility in St. Georgen in the Black Forest. For an initial clamping concept, a workpiece drawing and the essential information about the machining process are usually sufficient.
