What Seyi does
SEYI (Shieh Yih Machinery Industry Co., Ltd.) is a Taiwanese publicly listed manufacturer founded in 1962 that designs and produces industrial servo and mechanical stamping presses for global metal-forming customers. Its product portfolio spans 14+ press series — five servo lines (SDG, SDE, SD, SDN1, SDM1) and nine mechanical lines (SAG, SE, SLG, SEL, SNS, SLS, SN, SM1, SM2) — covering tonnages from sub-100 to 2,400 tons, and supporting tandem press lines, transfer systems, blanking, progressive die, heavy stamping, and hot stamping applications.
The company's underlying technology centers on a proprietary servo control system with programmable slide motion (7 default motion profiles plus custom), pendulum/pendulum-curve drive technologies delivering 50%+ energy savings, 8-point guided slide designs for precision, and an IoT-enabled Smart Stamping Solution add-on that collects machine telemetry (tonnage, die protection, motor status, lubrication, power) and supports remote diagnostics and OEE/yield reporting. SEYI runs a direct enterprise sales motion with global sales and service offices in Taiwan (HQ and manufacturing), China, the United States, Japan, Thailand, Indonesia, and Mexico (Bajío Operations, launched 2026-03-20), monetizing through quote-based hardware sales of custom-configured presses, multi-year after-sales service contracts (preventative maintenance, overhauls, modernization upgrades), and increasingly through IoT/smart-manufacturing subscriptions. Its primary customer segment is automotive OEMs and Tier-1 suppliers (notably for AHSS hot stamping of body panels and structural components), with secondary verticals in consumer electronics and appliances, medical equipment, aerospace, and transportation components.

Product offeringCore offering
SEYI manufactures and sells industrial metal stamping presses — both servo presses (SDG, SDE, SD, SDN1, SDM1 series) and mechanical presses (SAG, SE, SLG, SEL, SNS, SLS, SN, SM1, SM2 series) — in tonnages from small C-frame units up to 2,400-ton large straight-side machines for automotive, appliance, electronics, medical, and aerospace manufacturers. The company complements equipment sales with after-sales service (preventative maintenance, annual inspection, remote diagnostics) and overhaul/modernization programs, and offers an optional Smart Stamping Solution that adds industrial IoT-based monitoring, OEE and yield reporting, and remote diagnosis to installed press lines.
Product overview
SEYI (Shieh Yih Machinery Industry Co., Ltd.) is a manufacturer of servo and mechanical stamping presses, organized into two main product lines: servo presses (SDG, SDE, SD, SDN1, SDM1 series) and mechanical presses (SAG, SE, SLG, SEL, SNS, SLS, SN, SM1, SM2 series). The servo press line features programmable slide motion controlled by proprietary servo motors and control systems, offering energy savings of 50%+ with pendulum motion capability, while the mechanical press line includes traditional crank and link-motion designs for various stamping applications. All presses support industrial automation integration for tandem press lines, transfer systems, blanking lines, progressive die, and hot stamping. An optional Smart Stamping Solution adds IoT connectivity and monitoring capabilities to the press portfolio.
