When an assembly operation requires both pressing force and rotational torque applied at the same time, most shops end up with two separate stations and a transfer step between them. The Promess REMAP eliminates that. The Rotational Electro-Mechanical Assembly Press is a single, fully electric assembly unit that delivers precise linear force and controlled rotation simultaneously, in one cycle, on one machine.

In this video, Promess Applications Engineer Peter Parsons walks through how the REMAP works, what makes it different from conventional press-and-rotate solutions, and where it delivers the most value on the manufacturing floor. Peter covers the underlying motion control architecture, the force and position monitoring that runs on every cycle, and how the system captures a complete data signature for both the linear and rotational axes. That closed-loop feedback is what allows the REMAP to verify part quality in real time and adjust the process when conditions change, rather than relying on post-process inspection to catch defects.

Peter also discusses the industries where the REMAP has become a go-to solution, including automotive powertrain and driveline assembly, medical device manufacturing, aerospace component production, and other applications where precision rotational and axial force are both critical. Common operations include threaded fastener installation with controlled torque-to-position, ball joint and bearing assembly, valve seat installation, swaging and forming operations, and any process where a part needs to be pressed into position and then rotated to a specific angular target, or vice versa.

Whether you're evaluating the REMAP for a new program or trying to consolidate two existing assembly steps into one, this video offers a clear, practical look at what the system does and why manufacturers continue to specify it for their most demanding assembly challenges.
