SYSTEM SOLUTIONS FOR THE AEROSPACE INDUSTRY / AEROSPACE Machines from Schuler allow for the economical production of sheet metal parts as well as forged components. Gas pressure forming, diffusion bonding, hot forming/ calibration, closed and open die forging, isothermal forging and hot deep drawing are used, amongst others. Titanium, for example, is a metal of particular interest due to its specific strength. Highest rigidity of shape can for example be achieved by indentations; sandwich technology also makes it possible to reach high denting resilience even with thin panels. The high-temperature...

LEADING THE FUTURE OF FORGING. From the screw press to the automated forging cell. Around the world, light and stable components made from high-performance materials are manufactured on Schuler machines in the high-tech area of aerospace engineering. For example, compressor blades have been forged on screw presses from Schuler (formerly Müller Weingarten) for more than 40 years now – an unparalleled success story in the aerospace market. Looking to the future. Schuler’s market success is based upon our outstanding innovative potential as a technological leader. Our investments in research and...
