Tool and process optimisation
Often, small adjustments are all that is needed to increase the cycle rate. This optimisation allows us to fine-tune the interaction of the individual stations, and to optimise tool contours or materials. This is followed by tool-specific operator training to ensure ease of use.
Modernisations
If your Schmale machine no longer meets the current requirements in terms of its mechanical or electrical/control technology, it’s time for a partial or general overhaul.
In the case of a partial overhaul, for example, the safety concept is completely revised as part of a control system retrofit.
In the case of a general overhaul, all mechanical wear parts are also replaced.
Schmale machines are known for their exceptional mechanical durability. Even after decades of operation, many systems continue to work precisely and reliably.
Electronic components are subject to significantly shorter innovation and life cycles. After several years, spare parts are often no longer available.
However, while the mechanical core remains robust and durable, control technology continues to evolve rapidly.
More productivity.
More operational safety.
Your advantages at a glance:
- significantly more cost-effective than purchasing a new machine
- modern, intuitive user interfaces
- improved ergonomics through the new mobile panel
- more precise control and greater process stability
- higher cycle rates thanks to modern servo-electric units
- faster setup procedures
- Industry 4.0 ready
- improved operational safety
A control system retrofit significantly extends the service life of your machine and prepares it for new requirements. Proven mechanics are retained. Modern technology ensures efficiency, transparency and safety.
Have your existing machine evaluated. We analyze your system and develop a customized retrofit concept for you.

PRACTICAL INDUSTRY ASSESSMENT
"A new machine is not always the most economical solution. If the mechanical foundation is still sound, a modern control system can restore tremendous productivity.
Our customers benefit from shorter setup times, higher availability and significantly improved usability. This reduces downtime and sustainably increases efficiency."
