Our units use a single electric connector for all functions. The connector makes it easy to install and simplifies maintenance or service disassembly.
Our automated fastening systems are available in both electric and pneumatic actuation, so they can easily be integrated into your production.
The magazine sensor controls the staple loading status. It warns you when the magazine reaches low levels and lets you refill without interrupting production flow.
Poka-yoke: This function warns when your automated fastening system is not firing any fasteners. It gives you full control of your staple consumption.
Our precision engineered continuous reloading cylinder makes autonomous staple firing possible at high speed. Only for A1H models.
Avoiding splits and cracks when fastening wood on wood is a must in manufacturing. Josef Kihlberg's patented split free nozzle prevents splits in material when fastening.
To get the most out of your workflow with A3R our reloading station extends your loading capacity of fasteners with an external magazine. The robot reloads the magazine automatically, minimizing downtime.

Automated fastening systems
With over 175 years of proven experience, we understand the importance of working closely with our customers. We research and produce our tools and staples in-house in our factory in Hjo, Sweden with quality control throughout the process.
No system is stronger than the weakest link. All parts of our automated fastening systems are designed for optimal performance and thoroughly tested to work in perfect symbiosis.
Our integrated system of carefully selected components minimizes downtime and maximizes output so your production line stays reliable and efficient.
Automated fastening systems
We don't cut corners when it comes to our high-quality components. If a component doesn't meet Josef Kihlberg's standards, we won't use it.
Our Automated Fastening Systems are built to maintain productivity around the clock with quality engineering and construction.
All of our products come with long service intervals due to their high-quality parts and precision engineering.
We ensure fast access to tools and spare parts so you can keep production running with peace of mind.
We work towards the shortest lead times on all our tools and spare parts to support your commitments.
Our secure fastening technology delivers 750 shots per minute for A1 and 500 for the A3 models.
We create our automation fastening systems to produce very low sound emissions for better work environments.
SMOA technology is a safety function for maintenance that prevents the unit from firing when airflow is connected.
JK-AFT (Air Flow Technology) for the A3 model makes the unit powerful even at low air pressure, reducing air consumption and costs.
A quick ROI from initial set up. Better throughput.
Manufactured to the same specifications each time for a better end product than manual work.
Higher efficiency and overall labor effectiveness than manual work. Produce more in less time.
Constant production without stopping breaks for workers. Produce more in shorter time at the same speed.
Better use of raw material makes the production process more accurate and reduces manufacturing costs.
Increased workplace safety with fewer hazardous manual tasks and reduced risk.
Lower insurance cost for workers. Quality output increases customer satisfaction and retention.
Can perform more labor intensive tasks than manual work.
All of our automation fastening systems are made in aluminum, stainless steel and steel. It is extremely durable and requires almost no maintenance.
Our automatic stapling systems can handle most materials. When in doubt, we test your materials so you can be sure it works in your production.
