2D- / 3D-Segment Manufacturing

SCHLEIFSTEIN segment presses are designed for the efficient manufacturing of sheet metal segments

Constructions made of sheet metal, such as e. g. thick-walled, elliptical or spherical vessel heads, spherical tanks or other voluminous sheet metal shapes are assembled from individual segments.

The use of deep-drawing presses or deep-drawing dies reaches very quickly its technical and commercial limits. Other procedures, such as round bending, cannot manage 3-dimensional forming.

Large and / or thick-walled segments can be manufactured efficiently only in a sequential or partial forming process. As with the ship building presses simple forming dies are used here as well. Additionally drawing dies are applied. The segment press can also be used for hot forming.

The crane manipulators are integrated in the control and operating system of the press. As an option the PLAYBACK-control allows an automatic run of the segment production. In addition an automatic dishing manipulator can be provided.
