Västerås, Sweden, April 22, 2026 – Sona SPEED Pvt. Ltd., a specialist in precision mechatronics manufacturing solutions, is investing in a Quintus Flexform™ fluid cell press to expand its capabilities in producing high-precision prototype and low-volume components for aerospace and other demanding industries. The new press will support the company’s growing role as a supplier of flight-critical components for global customers.
Reflecting rising demand for lightweight, high-strength structures used in aircraft, satellites, and launch systems, Sona SPEED is strengthening its advanced forming and structural assembly capabilities, according to General Manager Bart Korff.
“We are expanding our metal forming and structural assembly capabilities to support next-generation aircraft, satellite, and launch vehicle programs,” says Mr. Korff. “Quintus Technologies brings proven expertise in high-pressure forming solutions that meet the stringent standards required for aerospace applications. Their technology enables us to deliver consistent quality, performance, and reliability to customers operating in mission-critical environments.”
The investment reflects broader industry trends toward lighter, stronger materials and faster development cycles across aerospace, defense, and high-performance industrial sectors. Advanced forming technologies such as the Flexform process enable manufacturers to reduce tooling complexity, improve structural performance, and accelerate product development timelines.
Sona SPEED selected the Flexform press model QFC 1×3-800, capable of applying up to 800 bar of forming pressure across a 1000 mm × 3000 mm work area. This performance is enabled by Quintus’ proven wire-winding pre-stress technology, which allows consistent pressure distribution across large forming surfaces.
“Flexform is a versatile solution for manufacturing complex sheet metal components, particularly in industries where precision, speed, and cost control are essential for maintaining global competitiveness,” explains Peter Henning, Chief Commercial Officer, Quintus Technologies.
