New DMI (Die Match Indicator) increases die life 

   on thread rolling machines

    A perfect match of the two thread rolling dies can increase the useable life of a set of 

    dies significantly. Our improved DMI (Die Match Indicator) technique tells the operator 

    exactly, in which direction he needs to correct die match in order to obtain a perfect 

    match. The rolling dies are adjusted much quicker, more precisely and more 

    repeatable. By applying our new hybrid sensing technology (patent pending) to thread 

    rolling machines, even very small deviations form the optimum die set-up are made 

    clearly visible. If the machineis equipped with the proper mechanical features, the die

    matching procedure can even be partly automated..

    Cold Forming / Data Collection

    New Mandon-technology premieres at WIRE 2010.
    Rising confidence in future business development and an increase in capital expenditure 

    plans describe the current views of the cold forming industry expressed during WIRE 2010,

    which venued from April 12 - 16,2010 in Düsseldorf. From that point, this most important 

    international meeting of the industry was taking place just at the right time, as visitors and 

    exhibitors alike pointed out.  

    So it came not as a suprise that the many new products and developments presented 

    by Schwer + Kopka sparked an enormous amount of interest amongst the industry experts 

    visiting our stand. Whether it was about the new Mandon-technology or the entirely new 

    range of process monitors, whether the interest was on our new job scheduling package 

    or about the Hybrid sensors permitting press alignment checks, we were extremely 

    pleased with the many discussions we had including the start-up of a number of major

    projects.

    Stamping: press monitoring

    New: measuring ram acceleration protects machine and tooling

    The ever increasing use of high-tensile materials on stamping machines is adding 

    enormous strain and stress to both, machine and tooling, such that major defects are

    occurring rather frequently. These defects reach from complete tool failures up to severe 

    machine damages such as cracked frames, even if the presses were fitted with pierce 

    shock dampening systems.

    Our new acceleration measuring system records the actual stress on the machine 

    components and alerts the operator if the g-forces are reaching critical values.

    Production Job Scheduler assists with your fine planning
    The SK-go!® job scheduler is an efficient tool for the fine planning of your jobs. A visual 

    machine loading chart and a capacity chart show you at a glance, how occupied  your 

    machines currently are. If you're about to miss a delivery deadline, the respective job is 

    marked in red. If needed, you can easily move jobs from one machine to another 

    by using our comfortable Drag&Drop tool.
