FlexTube Connect

Modular servo-controlled tubing connector insertion system

The FlexTube Connect platform was engineered from the ground up for the automotive fluid routing industry — delivering the flexibility, precision, and uptime that Tier 2 production demands.

One Platform. Every Connector Configuration.

FlexTube Connect is a modular, servo-controlled connector insertion system designed to handle the full range of nylon tubing and thermoplastic hose connector configurations found in automotive fluid routing assemblies.

The platform's modular architecture means a single machine can be configured for multiple product families — and reconfigured quickly as your product mix changes. Tooling changeovers that used to take hours now take minutes, without sacrificing insertion precision or process verification.

Modular Architecture

Configure for your current product mix. Expand or reconfigure as your production requirements evolve — without replacing the base machine.

Servo-Controlled Insertion

Programmable insertion force, position, and speed profiles for every connector type. Consistent, repeatable results across every cycle.

Fast Tooling Changeover

Tool-free changeover system designed for under 10 minutes. Minimize downtime between product runs without compromising setup accuracy.

Integrated Process Verification

Real-time force monitoring and position verification confirm every insertion meets specification. Automatic reject for out-of-spec assemblies.

Flexible Programming

Recipe-based programming for multiple connector and tubing configurations. Operator-friendly HMI with guided setup and changeover instructions.

Data & Traceability

Full process data logging for every assembly. Supports SPC, PPAP documentation, and integration with plant MES and quality systems.
