The technology company TRUMPF and one of the leading manufacturers of automated storage systems, STOPA, want to further expand their successful partnership. Both companies have now publicly announced a corresponding agreement ahead of the Blechexpo. The goal is to strengthen TRUMPF's role as a provider of innovative smart factory solutions. In this context, TRUMPF has increased its stake in STOPA Anlagenbau GmbH from 25.1 percent to 74.9 percent.

Reduce auxiliary times

STOPA supplies automated storage systems for the Smart Factory solutions of TRUMPF, among other things. Customers can automatically load and unload their machines and connect them logistically. Productivity in manufacturing increases as unproductive downtime is significantly reduced. Till Küppers, COO of TRUMPF Werkzeugmaschinen: "With this step, we want to establish a new foundation for our long-standing collaboration with STOPA. Our goal is to further develop the Smart Factory solutions together and offer our customers an even broader range of efficient, sustainable, and productivity-enhancing options."

Simplified Production Planning and Control

Storage systems from STOPA can be optimally adapt to the growing challenges of modern smart factory manufacturing or integrate into existing factories. The special advantages of automation are demonstrated in conjunction with TRUMPF software Oseon – this allows for further simplification of production planning and control, all the way to fully automated operation of sheet metal production.

"After nearly 40 years of successful partnership with TRUMPF in the automation of production, we are now looking forward to taking the next joint step and working even more closely together in the future," says Michael Stolzer, partner and managing director of STOPA Anlagenbau GmbH.

STOPA was founded in 1963 in Achern, Germany, and employs more than 300 people. The company specializes in automated storage systems for sheets and long goods.
