Schmidt Pneumatic Press | Schneider & Company

Overview

SCHMIDT Technology is a German company with locations on almost all continents. They specialize in assembly presses, press process monitoring and value-added designing and building of press tooling and machines if needed. They are experts in core products for assembly pressing and the process of press stake type of assembly. They offer Manual Presses, Pneumatic Presses, Hydro-Pneumatic Presses, Electric Presses and Servo Presses along with every level of integration. SCHMIDT also has an extensive lab for verifying press forces and developing processes in the prototype stage.

Key Product Lines

Manual Precision Assembly Presses

SCHMIDT Technology offers a full line of manual presses with Rack and Pinion design presses from 360-560 lbs of press force through the entire stroke or Toggle design presses from 560 to 4,950 lbs of press force – high force at then end of stroke.There are many optional features such as micrometer fine adjustments, ergonomic handles and Stroke Lock return which ensures a full stroke.

Manual Precision Assembly Press With Monitoring

SCHMIDT Technology has the 300 series presses which can be either a Rack and Pinion design #305, #307 which have 90 and 900 lbs of force through out the entire stroke or the #311 Toggle press version with 2,700 lbs of high force at the end of stroke.These presses are capable of both force/distance monitoring and also the electro-magnetic clutch in the handle releases either at a desired stroke or force as a press control function or reject error proofing.

Precision Pneumatic Assembly Presses

SCHMIDT Technology offers a large selection of pneumatic presses. Pneumatic presses are the most economical way to press parts together.Direct-acting stacked Piston Presses range from 320 – 9,800 lbs of force through the entire stroke range and Toggle designs range from 3,375 – 13,490 lbs of force at the end of the stroke. Lots of options are available for these presses such as safety compliant pneumatics pkg, slide tables, economical press controller, sensors and full force/distance process monitoring.

Hydro Pneumatic Assembly Presses (for Higher Forces)

SCHMIDT Technology Hydro-Pneumatic (air/oil) Presses offer both high forces and press guidance.The Hydro-pneumatic press is designed as a 2 stage process with a lower force pneumatic advance to contact, then a high force “squeeze” press force stage. These press range from 3,375-49,450 lbs. force in the power stroke stage. Different from many other similar products, SCHMIDT has integrated guidance in the press head module to protect the cylinder from un-parallel pressing process side loading.

There are many options available for these presses such as safety compliant pneumatics pkg, slide tables, economical press controller, sensors and full force/distance process monitoring.

Cylinders

Schmidt Technology is the USA distributor for Farger & Joosten – Hydro-Pneumatic (AIR/OIL) Cylinders. These cylinders are components allowing the user to supply their own guidance system, frame and tooling. The G single cylinder is available up to 400kn force and power stroke up to 80mm. The U series is a dual cylinder design and available up to 1000kn force and 400mm power stroke.The E Series cylinders are separated cylinder designs and available up to 1000kn force with power stroke up to 500mm. The Z series is a dual cylinder design and available up to 1000kn force and 500mm power stroke. They have the added capability of limiting both the total stroke as well as the power stroke.

SERVO and High Torque Assembly Presses

SCHMIDT Technology SERVO presses are the highest accuracy programmable servo presses on the market today. They offer advanced closed loop force sensing in real time so stopping accurately at forces are achievable. SCHMIDT servo presses can be modules with controller only for integration or include frames and work stations for stand alone bench type press assembly machines. Press head sizes are between 180# up to 33,720# with strokes from 5.9” up to 19.68”. When you need to press critical parts in expensive assemblies these presses deliver results.

SCHMIDT Technology TORQ presses are high accuracy servo presses with a special designed motor and direct drive allowing for high forces with low inertia . There are 2 sizes of Torque press the model 520 (4,500#force/9.84” stroke) and the model 200 which has 56,000# force/19.68” stroke)</div>

Electric Assembly Presses

SCHMIDT Technology ELECTRIC Presses are electric motor driven rack and pinion presses. The unique drive system allows both programmability and simplicity for pressing applications where there are many part variations, setups or just a desire to have programmability in the pressing process. The Electric presses come in either 990# capacity or 2,250# capacity and have several different options on the control platform for use as a stand alone press or in an integrated machine.
