Under the technical leadership of Dr.-Ing. Benjamin Berger, the first rail marking machine in Egypt was successfully commissioned.

At the new Egyptian plant – the first large-scale rail rolling mill in Africa – the STEMA®-JU22 marks approximately 100-meter-long hot rails at a temperature of around 850 °C. This plant represents a major milestone in the expansion of Egypt’s infrastructure and was officially inaugurated by the Egyptian government: Watch the inauguration

In close cooperation with our client, SMS group, and the Egyptian customer, we successfully completed the commissioning in April 2025.

We would like to sincerely thank our customer and business partners for the professional and trusting collaboration!

Thanks to our many years of experience and extensive know-how in stamping technology for hot-rolled and cast steel, customers of Stangl-Technik also rely on our expertise.

In 2024, we redesigned, optimized, manufactured, delivered, and installed complete assemblies for Stangl-Technik stamping machines as part of spare parts orders.

Wear parts for Stangl products were also improved upon customer request – both in terms of materials and design details. Throughout the process, we consistently adhered to our high-quality standards: Berger Quality.

Continuance test: November 9, 2024 – November 18, 2024 (24-hour test x 10 days)

Cold Run Test
Date: November 20, 2024

Under the project management of Dr.-Ing. Benjamin Berger, the Cold Run Test (CRT) was successfully completed together with the employees of POMINI Long Rolling Mills S.r.l.

This rail stamping machine, STEMA® JU16, will be installed and commissioned in 2025 at final customer Jindal Steel in RAIGARH 496001, India!

We thank POMINI for their trust and look forward to joint commissioning at our customer Jindal Steel in India!

The JU11 rail stamping machine was installed and successfully commissioned in September.

The machine was installed and commissioned in a record time of just 2.5 weeks. Thanks to our extensive expertise and the standardization of STEMA®, installation times were significantly reduced.

The rail stamping machine is equipped with the latest technology, allowing the stamping pressure to be regulated and controlled based on the rail temperature.

We would like to thank our customer for the successful collaboration.

Our specialists under the direction of Dr.-Ing. Benjamin Berger were on site at British Steel for the annual service.
During the annual service, the components of the STEMA® have been checked, small maintenance work has been carried out and a test report was created.
The annual service supports the technology and maintenance team on site in assessing the condition of the machine and provides detail recommendations for some action.
The STEMA® has been in use at British Steel for 5 years without any errors.
Because of continuous maintenance, the condition of the system is very good: After over 5 years of continuous use, the rail stamping machine is well equipped for the next 5 years thanks to perfect maintenance!

We would like to thank our customer British Steel for the good cooperation on site.

In 2024, we celebrated a remarkable anniversary: 30 years of rail stamping machines STEMA®. Since the launch of our first machine three decades ago, our company has continuously evolved and made a significant contribution to the global railway industry.

Today, our rail stamping machines are used to mark more than 96% of the railway rails produced worldwide. This not only highlights the high quality and precision of our technology but also reflects the trust our customers place in us.

In light of new developments, we have further optimized our machines. With innovative improvements in precision, energy efficiency, and digital control, our rail marking machines are well equipped to meet the challenges of modern rail production.

We thank our customers, partners, and employees for their continued trust and collaboration.

Our new assembly hall was inaugurated and put into operation in May 2024.
This ensures the assembly of our special machines, rail stamping machines and reading systems.
The distances of our suppliers and employees travel times are shortened, thus increasing our production efficiency by approximately 17.5%!

On 05.03.2024 the Final Acceptance Tests of our Needle Stamping Robot for Hot Rings took place.

The Robot stamps rings up to 10.000 kg with temperatures up to 1.100°C. The variety of products can also be considerable: For example, the diameters of the rings can vary from 700mm to 4.200mm. The rings are pulled onto a table in which the position of the ring is not guided, so that the robot has to find the ring itself. Under these demanding conditions the stamping robot achieved 100% accuracy rate of stampings with error rate of 0%!

The entire system was delivered as a turnkey solution and the stamping is performed in fully automatic mode: The ring dimensions are transferred from a data base to the robot, then the ring position is multiple calculated by sensors around and on the robot, and finally the stamping is performed. The machine is in operation 24/7.

We would like to thank our customer Bohemia Rings for their support!

Our new ReaSy® 5.0 for reading and checking stamped rails has been delivered and installed.

The ReaSy® 5.0 system can read stamps on a rail up to a velocity of 5 m/s and is installed on the production line after our rail stamping machine STEMA®.

It consists of a special camera and special lighting with a wavelength adapted to hot steel to take pictures of the stamps and has a connection to  STEMA® for data transmission.

The user can observe the stamps of the rail in live view via a web interface and an interface to Level 2 makes it possible to obtain all information in the production HMI.

Since ReaSy® can read stamps directly on the production line in real time, the production team can react immediately to adjust the stamping process if necessary, e.g. reduce or increase the stamping pressure, adjust the stamping position or identify incorrectly inserted symbols in the magazine, and much more.

This saves time and money, as incorrectly stamped rails are avoided and staff can control the stamping process very efficiently.

The entire system has extensive heat protection and is tailored to the harsh environment of hot rolling.
