Previews

Schuler, Canton, MI, will focus on press-system productivity at its booth in the METALFORM technology area of FABTECH, featuring its ServoDirect technology (SDT) for stampers operating in the range of 300 tons and above. It also will highlight the capabilities offered by its technical services group for press-system modernization and press-relocation support.

SDT technology promises to increase press output and improve a stamper’s ability to produce value-added components using enhanced in-die processes such as welding and assembly. Schuler also will introduce its new PowerFeed coil-feed units designed to keep up with the demands of SDT metalforming presses.

Booth visitors also will learn how Schuler can bring aging machines up to state-of-the-art performance by offering control-system upgrades, electronic transfer system retrofits, automatic die change, press-to-press automation, die cushions and complete press overhauls/rebuilds.

Lastly, Schuler Hydroforming will feature its full range of technical services and production capabilities for tubular and hollow parts.
