FACE TO FACE the YSM CNC-39T, one of our standard models. In addition to its ability to integrate resistance welding or tapping, this year’ s showcased version featured an upgrade of the press unit from the original 40T to a 45T( double crank). This increase in tonnage not only enhances pressing capability but also improves the machine’ s stability and precision, further boosting overall processing performance,” Gregory Wilfred, CEO of YSM International in India, told ISMR.

“ The second was the YSM-36TC2, an upgraded version of our standard YSM-36T, now equipped with dual-axis servo control. The traditional feeding method has been replaced with a CNC clamping and pressing mode, which extends the previously limited feeding length while retaining the precision of the traditional feeding method,” he continued.
Visitors to the Blechexpo / Schweisstec trade show in Stuttgart this October can also find YSM in Hall 6 on stand 6514.
“ Due to overall market conditions and the impact of U. S. tariffs, we will not be displaying machines on-site at Blechexpo this year. Instead, we will present our products through videos and samples to visiting customers. We also warmly welcome any interested clients to visit our booth and have face-to-face discussions with our on-site service team,” added Gregory Wilfred.
He highlighted YSM’ s culture of continuous innovation and delivery of“ high-tech”,“ lowinvestment” manufacturing solutions. For example, it introduced a Radial and Linear line in one set-up to give customers more manufacturing flexibility and, by using tool standardisation, optimised production tasks for tooling by turning out quicker designs and delivering faster and more economical tools. Features that it has improved on its CAMLESS servo-driven stamping and bending machine are easily configurable slides; new safety

“ Our customers are our partners; our goal is to make lasting improvements to their manufacturing processes. We stay ahead of the game by listening to our customer needs and adjusting our business working operations accordingly. All our solutions are delivered on a single production line capable of producing parts with speeds of up to 250 parts / minute,” he explained.
“ We are always searching for the best way to manufacture a part. Using new technology servo motors, for example, we offer customers production speeds of up to 300 parts / minute. By employing multi-cavity technology for some parts, we can produce up to four cavity tools, giving the customer the ability to produce up to 1200 parts / minute( 300 x 4).”
Industry trends and challenges
Gregory Wilfred also highlighted several ongoing trends and drivers in global sheet metal markets.
“ Integrating automation and robotics into traditional sheet metal manufacturing processes is one of the most significant transformations to date. Metal fabrication, historically labour-intensive, is witnessing a paradigm shift towards automation-driven efficiency. This innovation optimises production lines, minimising human error and significantly reducing production time. Automation using robotics also brings about a safer working environment for employees. Dangerous tasks that were once manually performed can now be executed by robots, mitigating the risk of workplace injuries,” he explained.
“ Cost, revenue and profit are the three most important factors in determining the success
