Electronics manufacturers live on precision, repeatability, and uptime—and they’re measured on first-pass yield, time to PPAP/customer approval, and total cost over the machine lifecycle.
Sutherland and KC Presses address these metrics directly, helping EMS teams:
The result: higher productivity, faster approvals, and lower operating costs.

Sutherland’s portfolio pairs modern servo-hydraulic cells for NPI and sustaining work with high-throughput mechanical stamping lines for volume production.
Across both, the I-PRESS® & Automation Control standardizes the operator experience—putting motion, pressure, temperature, and data under one unified system.
This makes it easier to develop, validate, and lock process windows—essential when managing short runs and rapid design changes.

For shields, contacts, terminals, heat sinks, and frames made from thin copper, stainless, and aluminum foils, controlled motion is everything.
The I-PRESS® control allows users to program by:
This minimizes burrs, avoids over-forming, and protects both parts and dies.
Servo-hydraulic cells excel at low-speed bedding, dwell, and decompression, while mechanical lines deliver stable throughput once the recipe is proven.

EMS operations thrive on rapid model changes and small batch runs.
Features like:
These reduce operator variability and ensure validated settings repeat from shift to shift and plant to plant—helping teams hit PPAP targets sooner and cut scrap during ramp-up.
With real-time diagnostics, trend views, and data logging, process and maintenance teams gain full visibility to:
Through secure remote support, experts can review alarms, valve actions, and sensor data in minutes—shortening MTTR and preventing unplanned downtime.

Advanced fluid management and servo drives cut idle losses, heat, and noise compared to conventional hydraulics—lowering utility bills while extending fluid and component life.
Maintenance is simplified with:
Together, these reduce lifecycle cost without compromising performance.
Whether you’re:
Sutherland and KC Presses provide a unified path from prototype to scale.
The outcome for EMS manufacturers:
✅ Consistent first-pass yield
✅ Shorter changeovers and PPAPs
✅ Lower energy and maintenance costs
✅ Higher uptime
All engineered for the realities of modern electronics production.
