The demands placed on data centre and energy infrastructure components are growing rapidly. Whether server racks, control cabinets, distribution enclosures or cable tray systems – with TOX® technologies, you can optimise your production in a sustainable way: clinching, punching and functional components enable scalable, cost-effective and reliable series production. Arrange a consultation now.
The demands placed on the manufacture of data centre and energy infrastructure components are constantly increasing:
increasing power densities due to AI and GPU infrastructure
increasing complexity in switch cabinets and electrical distribution
growing cost pressures in series production
increasing demands on automated production and scalability
In the field of data centre and energy infrastructure, joining technologies are primarily used in server racks, control cabinets, cable management systems and technical enclosures.
High demands on stability, material diversity and process reliability are crucial here: components made of steel, stainless steel or aluminium must be joined reliably without damaging sensitive surfaces. At the same time, complex designs and increasing production volumes require cost-effective and reproducible manufacturing processes.
TOX® technologies such as clinching, punching and the insertion of functional elements offer the ideal solution for this, enabling efficient, safe and scalable production – even with complex geometries and large components.

Clinching cable trays and cable support systems
Press-fitting functional elements (nuts, bolts, screws)
Clinching and punching housing and structural components
Clinching and punching of slides and support systems
The benefits of TOX® technologies are particularly evident in practice: in the manufacture of server racks, control cabinets, cable trays and electronic enclosures, they enable more efficient processes, reduced assembly time and lower costs.
With TOX® technologies, you can optimise your manufacturing processes across the entire value chain: you reduce costs by using fewer fasteners and less material, boost efficiency through shorter assembly times and fewer process steps, and simultaneously enhance process reliability through consistent quality.
At the same time, your production remains scalable and reliably plannable – ideal for high volumes, enabling you to achieve significantly more cost-effective manufacturing of data centre and energy infrastructure components overall.
TOX® clinching technology enables the joining of sheet metal without the need for additional fasteners.
Clinching offers decisive advantages, particularly for energy infrastructure components such as control cabinets or distribution enclosures.
