How To Determine the Right Servo-Controlled Press Technology for Your Application
Over the years, SCHMIDT Technology has expanded its servo-controlled press technology to include eight high-end ServoPress Systems, rack & pinion-driven ElectricPress Systems and our recently introduced high-speed TorquePress Systems. Each product group offers not only servo-controlled pressing but also unique capabilities that are best suited for a particular application. To select the best servo-controlled press, you need to understand the important differences between our three product groups. Then, by comparing the differences in mechanical design and how each system works, you will have a better understanding of which system is best for your specific needs.
Since almost all of our servo-controlled presses come equipped with either a PressControl 600 or PressControl 5000, they offer 100% in-process monitoring. Therefore, performance results for each press cycle are automatically captured and compared against user-established parameters. The PressControl verifies that the ram’s force and distance fall within appropriately placed force/distance windows and stroke tolerances.
