At LIGNA 2025, the North German company and its autotec brand will be showcasing solutions that digitally connect automated fastening with the system and a web-based application. According to BeA, the new autotec Connector Box represents a significant step towards digitalization in production. All relevant parameters, such as the system pressure or the number of insertion processes, are now transmitted in real time.

BeAcademy provides additional Input

This enables the continuous monitoring of quality standards during fastening, but also the avoidance of cost-intensive system downtimes, for example due to equipment failure. It should also provide opportunities for preventive maintenance of particularly stressed device components. These can be ordered and provided automatically and service orders can be triggered. In future, the newly created BeAcademy will offer additional content to enable customers to carry out simple repairs and periodic maintenance themselves.

Optimized Chassis for Stapling and Nailing Devices

The further developed Skater technology based on the autotec Skater Vario will also be presented. It serves as a chassis for various stapling and nailing devices from BeA and KMR and is designed to enable professional users not only to work more efficiently, but also to work much more ergonomically thanks to its height-adjustable handle and more precise serial fastening. A key feature: the Skater Vario allows both classic 30-degree and 0-degree fastening. By adapting to Eurocode 5, the number of fasteners required can be reduced - a significant cost advantage according to BeA.

Fast, precise and reliable Screw Insertion

Another highlight will be the new autotec SD evo screwdriver for processing collated screws. This device is used to fasten façade cladding, planking of ceiling and floor formwork, as well as reinforcing wood, gypsum and fiber cement boards. The further development of the predecessor model is intended to enable faster, more precise and, above all, more reliable screwing in for a wide range of applications. This process reliability is a decisive factor, particularly in fully automated systems. It is made possible, among other things, by the high-quality screw magazine, the powerful servo motor, the precise guidance when screwing in, the monitoring of the feed and the precisely adjustable stop.
