How To Cut Operating Costs by Integrating Servo-Controlled ElectricPresses and Accessories Into Automated Pressing Systems
To increase productivity, manufacturers are continually looking for new ways to automate their assembly processes. To address the need for assembly presses that are ideally suited for automated pressing, SCHMIDT Technology recently introduced its servo-controlled ElectricPress Series. Bridging the technology gap between a standard air press and a servo press system, these versatile presses are ideal for applications requiring precise and programmable ram positioning and force control. Because of their innovative rack and pinion drive system, SCHMIDT® ElectricPresses are more cost effective than ball-screw-driven servo presses while providing the same level of control. And when an ElectricPress is equipped with the SCHMIDT PressControl 600, this press control system can be easily programmed to control the automation tasks of transferring and positioning components.
