Schuler's Digital Suite provides manufacturers with a fully networked press shop for optimized production.
Schuler's new Michigan Ave. Service Facility enables reduced turnaround time for repairs, rebuilds and modernization projects.
Schuler North America, subsidiary of Schuler Group GmbH, recently hosted a Digitalization & Modernization Workshop as well as the grand opening of Schuler's Michigan Ave. Service Facility in Canton, MI.
At the event, Schuler identified the press shop of the future and highlighted key technologies that maximize overall equipment effectiveness (OEE), implement digitalization practices and conduct smart press shop practices. Attendees learned how the press shop of the future reshapes costs, output and carbon footprint.
"Topics and marketing buzz words, such as IIoT and digitalization, have oversaturated the market," said Telvi Zanin, VP of Service at Schuler North America. "Our Digitalization & Modernization Workshop provided the valued `how-to' ingredient designed to help attendees build their own state-of-the-art press shop of the future."
Schuler's Digitalization & Modernization Workshop was a full, one-day event with various sessions that provided practical solutions for making press shops smarter. Session topics included:
- The Optimize Shop Floor Operations
- Protect Dies & Prevent Damages with VDP
- Press Shop Planning with Cloud Solutions
- Shop Floor Tour
- Get Proactive with Service Agreements
- Future Products.
The workshop also served as the grand opening of Schuler's Michigan Ave. Service Facility. The facility is 32,000 sq. ft. and is equipped with a 50-ton crane, in-house press pit for rebuilds and assembly, specialized equipment, and full-time field service and engineering support hub.
"The Digitalization & Modernization Workshop was an opportunity to inform the market about Schuler's Digital Suite solutions and how manufacturers can create a fully networked press shop. Concurrently, our new facility exemplifies Schuler's capabilities to the local market," said Kevin McAllister, President of Schuler North America. "The Michigan Ave. Service Facility enables reduced turnaround time for repairs, press rebuilds and modernization projects. We created a convenient space for customer shipments, follow-ups, reviews and buy-offs."
