Forming - steels and metals - Import export

Special machines from Schmale Maschinenbau are equipped with an intelligent combination of technologies. The plant shown above is used to manufacture reinforcement items from solid material with a diameter of 20mm for the building industry. Servo-electric units such as bending slides, presses and finger benders are combined into customer-specific solutions for the production of individual items that can not be produced on standard machines. Schmale offers special machines for wire, tube and strip processing. You can watch various special machines for the production of different forming articles on our YouTube channel. https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCziuQiA3kXBVfH4ecLxQ2JA/videos

A clamping ring machine is a system for the automatic production of clamping rings. Schmale Maschinenbau Gmbh is one of the leading manufacturers of clamping ring machines in Europe. On our clamping ring machines, the strip material is profiled, bent and cut. Automatically closures are supplied and welded. The finished clamping ring is calibrated and stored. Via a servo-electric transfer, all processing stations are connected to each other and operated simultaneously. Thus, cycle rates of up to 28 clamping rings per minute can be realized.

Finger bender technology on our X2000NC This is new and revolutionary! Do you know our X2000NC? Then you know the advantages of our variable, modular machine concept. In this new model, we have consistently transferred the finger bending technology of the SPEEDMAX to the X2000NC. This model now combines all the advantages of two bending worlds. By integrating the NC bending technology in combination with our rotary positioning pliers and the servo transfer, the X2000NC is now pushing material speeds to a whole new level. E.g.: Up to 40 parts per minute, each one with up to 6 bendings and 1 press operation is possible

The X2000NC is a modular, fully servo-electric wire and tube bending machine that can be configured to customer specifications with various servo-electric units such as NC finger benders, bending slides and presses up to a force of 7000kN. Due to the variable positioning possibilities of the units, a great variety of different forming processes can be realized on the machine. This makes it possible to produce a wide variety of wire, tube and strip products on one X2000NC. Dimensions: from app. 5,50m x 2,50m, app 10 - 30 to.

We are experts in deep-drawn parts made of stainless steel, deep-drawn parts made of aluminium and other non-ferrous metals (including brass, copper and nickel silver). To produce your perfect component, we also have the option of using carbon steel, special nickel alloys (e.g. Inconel®), but also soft magnetic materials. Each material has specific properties that need to be taken into account in the forming process. We manufacture deep-drawn parts with a diameter of 2 to 80 mm and a length of up to 120 mm. We process material thicknesses from 0.05 to 2.50 mm. Pharmaceuticals and medical technology, industry, consumer and automotive: we are primarily active in these fast-growing sectors. We are not only specialists in deep drawing, but also know the industrial requirements and process chains. Depending on your requirements, we complement deep-drawing with numerous secondary finishing processes up to fully automated assembly systems.

You don't need deep-drawn individual parts, but complex assemblies already assembled? We are your experts for that! First we analyse your requirements for new potentials. Combined with innovative thinking and agile processes, we then design smart solutions with you to manufacture your desired assemblies. Depending on your requirements, we develop decoupled, partially or fully interlinked assembly processes using high-performance systems and state-of-the-art equipment. We reliably ensure your quality requirements with integrated and individual testing measures.

Pressteck is one of the world's leading specialists for deep-drawn individual parts on transfer presses and their processing into assemblies. In this non-cutting tension-pressure process, we produce hollow parts from a metal strip in several stages, which can be aluminium, stainless steel, copper or brass, among others. Compared to other processes, deep drawing has decisive advantages: Material consumption and production costs are lower, and at the same time the strength of the components is higher. We are highly innovative and optimise deep drawing technology beyond what is currently possible. We manufacture your individual component from coiled sheet metal and master demanding geometries and high degrees of forming.

Thermostatic valves - i.e. the temperature controls on the heating system - are found in just about every home. In the head of a thermostatic valve there is a metal bellows, a corrugated tube that expands according to the room air temperature. For these metal bellows, the manufacturer needed deep-drawn, very long and thin-walled sleeves. The challenge: the sleeves must be matched to the customer's downstream process under very tight tolerance specifications. Why? Because the sleeves cannot be further processed if the geometries vary. Absolute precision is therefore required. We can offer absolute precision. The customer commissioned us with the production of the sleeves. On the one hand, because we fulfil the special deep-drawing requirements. On the other hand, because we can offer an associated, targeted heat treatment for material stress relief in-house.

For our customers in the automotive and housing industry, we produce deep-drawn stainless steel pots with an integrated axle as a monobloc component. These are used in water pumps for electric vehicles. Our customer from the automotive industry needs pots with an integrated axle that holds a rotor. Up to now, the pot and axle have been joined in a centred manner by means of welding. The customer's wish was to produce a one-piece component to avoid welding. Deep drawing is the ideal technology for this. The size of the component required larger presses than were previously available. Therefore, we first developed tools as prototypes for larger presses on behalf of the customer. After practical tests at the customer's premises as well as at the end customer's, our client decided on a tool that was ideally suited for the production of the component in series.

Für die exklusiven Füllhalter, Kugelschreiber und Tintenroller eines Schreibgeräte-Herstellers fertigen wir mit Tiefziehtechnologie Aluminiumteile in Großserie.Angenehm liegen Füllhalter, Kugelschreiber und Tintenroller in der Hand, edel sehen sie aus. Die nahtlos aus Aluminium tiefgezogenen Deckel und Körper verleihen der Schreibgeräte-Edition einen exklusiven Look. Als der Hersteller plante, diese neue Edition auf den Markt zu bringen, ließ er sie eigens von einem bekannten Designer konzipieren. Da dieser jedoch keinerlei Augenmerk auf die Herstellbarkeit der Teile legte, stand der Kunde vor der großen Herausforderung, einen Lieferanten zu finden, der die Teile in Großserie produzieren konnte, ohne Abstriche beim Design machen zu müssen. Selbstverständlich muss bei einem so edlen Produkt jedes Bauteil ganz besonders hochwertig sein. Bei den Aluminiumteilen gilt es im Hinblick auf die Folgeprozesse vor allem darauf zu achten, dass die Oberflächen sauber sind.
