New Custom Designed
Schwabe SR 230 Die Cutting Press System
This latest custom design build Schwabe straight ram SR 230 illustrates Freeman Schwabe engineering and manufacturing craftsmanship and why the company excels at custom application systems.
Gaskets
Die Cutting Presses and Automated Cutting Systems
Freeman Schwabe Machinery has years of experience working with customers who manufacture gasket materials and understand their production needs.
To meet these needs Freeman Schwabe provides a wide range of die cutting presses and machinery to die cut gaskets with precision and consistency.
The GFA defines a gasket as a material or combination of materials clamped between two separate members of a mechanical joint.
Its function is to effect a seal between the members (flanges) and maintain the seal for a prolonged period.
The gasket must be capable of sealing the mating surfaces, impervious and resistant to the medium being sealed and able to withstand the application temperature and pressure.
Two-speed cutting stroke of the Model FH provides gasket manufacture maximum speed on the down stroke.
The press provides accurate control of the cutting position, which provides the opportunity for optimizing production rates for manufacturing gaskets, while extending the cutting die and cutting pad life.
As gaskets require accurate and consistent die cuts time after time the Receding Head is a popular choice of machine.
The gasket material to be cut is mounted on a stationary table that securely holds the material in place, avoiding any shifting problems, thereby providing consistent precision die cutting time after time.
Model SR Schwabe Straight Ram Hydraulic Die Cutting Press
The Traveling Head hydraulic die cutting press features a double chain mechanism which ensures smooth and even movement.
This reduces wear on the guide rails and surrounding machine parts.
1. Dual Acting Hydraulics Drive, Increase Accuracy and Extend Die Life
TH Press Feature: The TH Series is designed using a hydraulic cylinder to control
both the up and down movement of the head.
Benefit: Providing more accurate control of the cutting stroke.
2. Double-chain Drive Mechanism is used to Guide the Traveling Head
TH Press Feature: Double Chain Mechanism ensures smooth and even movement.
Benefit: Reduces wear on the guide rails and surrounding machine parts.
3. The TH Series is extremely rigid construction
TH Press Feature: Maintains the parallelism of the head and bed during the die cutting stroke.
Benefit: Reducing wear on cutting pads and dies.
