Mechanical blanking and forming presses TMK with knuckle-joint drive
Description
More parts produced, improved part dimensional accuracy, and greater material strength - the demands in sheet processing are clearly defined. With its blanking and forming presses in the series TMK Schuler offers manufacturing systems that permit cost-effective blanking, drawing, coining, piercing, and calibrating for the production of ready-to-install precision parts in a single operating sequence. A number of field-proven modules can be assembled to form application-specific, customized manufacuring systems.
Press models in the TMK series are mechanical presses with modified knuckle-joint drive. They are available in nominal press forces of 2,000 up to 15,000 kN and bed dimensions of 1,500 to 4,000 mm with fixed or adjustable stroke.
Your advantages
- High stroking rates even for complex parts
- Multiple forming operations in a singe press pass
- Extreme rigidity of the entire system
- Reduced impact speeds to protect dies
- Optimized slide motion by means of modified knuckle-joint drive
- Precision, ready-to-install components requiring no subsequent machining
