Your advantage

This is not a sectional flight.
This is a C.E. flight.

Plenty of shops can press flights. But a C.E. flight is more than bent steel: it is the result of over 3 million documented pressings, one-hundred-percent gauge mandrel inspection and 40 years of specialising in exactly one component. You won't feel the difference at purchase — you'll feel it while welding.

⚡ EXPRESS ON REQUEST: 24–48 H POSSIBLE— NOT STANDARD, BUT OUR PROMISE WHEN YOUR SCREW IS DOWN: YOUR POSITION JUMPS THE QUEUE AT THE PRESS

CES · DEFINITION · BLATT V/1C.E. STANDARD

How to recognise a C.E. flight .

100 % gauge mandrel inspected — every single flight measured, no spot checks.

Data-driven pressing — experience plus AI. Over 3 million documented pressings and learning models adapt every flight: springback, blank, press stroke. With more than 2 trillion possible variants — more than stars in the Milky Way — no human alone finds the perfect setting. We do: human + machine + data.

DIN 15261-2 — tolerances to the standard, documented.

Made from stock — 25 steel grades, 90 variants, no material lead time.

Individually labelled — every flight marked and packed per order.

Express-capable — standard is 5–10 days; on request we make 24–48 h possible, when your screw is down.

Bevels for weld-ready edges — cleaner V-seams. Important: please order bevels explicitly — just state them in your enquiry.

Large series & framework agreements — we produce your series to stock, lock in your material price for volume orders via framework agreement — and deliver just-in-time on call, when your production needs them.

Direct line — technical sales instead of a ticket system, answers the same day.

Engineering included — from your drawing to series production: design advice, material selection, geometry optimisation.

The difference on your shop floor.

What an uninspected flight really costs only shows at the pipe — during weld-on.

Flight without 100 % inspection

Fit only becomes visible at the pipe
Rework, aligning, measuring at the weld seam
Time lost per screw: easily hours
Often cheaper at purchase — more expensive overall

A C.E. flight

Passgenau to a sheet of paper — inspected before dispatch
Place, weld, move on — zero rework
Predictable fabrication time, plannable costs
A touch more at purchase — the more economical flight overall

TOTAL COST CALCULATIONWhy our customers can do the maths

The price is on the invoice.
The costs are on the shop floor.

Many of our customers deliberately buy from us although the C.E. flight costs a touch more at purchase: The fit saves every bit of rework during weld-on — and with it the most expensive minutes of the whole screw. Overall, the inspected flight wins.

COMPARISON REFERS TO UNINSPECTED FLIGHTS IN GENERAL — NO STATEMENT ABOUT INDIVIDUAL SUPPLIERS.

Four advantages. Four drawings.

Every advantage has a technical reason — here they are, sheet by sheet.

CES · V-0101 · Lead time

Fast, because the stock is already full.

25 steel grades in 90 variants ready and waiting — production without material lead time. 5–10 working days standard — express on request in 24–48 h.

CES · V-0202 · Dimensions

Any dimension. Including the awkward ones.

Ø 40 to 3000 mm, thicknesses 2 to 60 mm — ten geometries plus custom work, with bevels on request. Where standard presses give up, ours get started.

CES · V-0303 · Materials

All materials. Up to Hardox.

Structural steel, stainless, Duplex, creep-resistant, heat-resistant, Creusabro, Hardox — the complete spectrum from stock, with wear advice.

CES · V-0404 · Price

Economical through technology.

In-house laser and plasma cutting plus nesting: maximum material use, minimal scrap — the saving is in your quote.

SETH^™

BLANK INTELLIGENCE · C.E. SCHNECKENFLÜGEL

At work in production planning

Before the laser cuts, Seth has already compared.

A screw flight is bent steel with a will of its own: during pressing it springs back, twists and wanders — differently for every geometry and material. Until now, the perfect blank lived in no formula, but in the heads of our most experienced people.

Seth™ is both: our in-house AI, trained on every flight we have ever produced. Before the first cut, Seth checks each new geometry in real time against our entire production history and recommends the blank that truly fits — based on pressed experience, not just the textbook.

And because at C.E. people form the steel, one thing never changes: Seth calculates, the crew decides. Every recommendation comes with a traffic light and reference projects — and Seth keeps learning with every new flight. For you that means: dimensions that fit first time, fewer trial parts, faster quotes.
