Zhenjiang Xianfeng Automobile Components Co, Ltd, has ordered a further two machines from
Schuler. The scope of delivery includes a 400-ton servo press and a 1,250-ton link drive press which will be manufactured in China, supported by engineers from Germany and Brazil.
The 1,250-ton line is the largest one for Xianfeng so far. It all started back in 2016 with a 160-ton press together with a Bihler machine, followed two years later by another link drive machine with 800 tons of press force. In between, the customer also ordered dies from the Schuler subsidiary Aweba. Since Xianfeng and Schuler both focus on technology and quality, they make a perfect match and further strengthen Xianfeng’s standing in its industry.
The servo press features two electronically synchronised drive trains in an opposite arrangement, which makes the machine more dynamic. In addition, the pressure points are further out, increasing the possible eccentric load. Furthermore, the 400-ton and the 1,250-ton machines are both IoT (Internet of Things) ready in order to increase productivity and support the customer’s vision for a digital intelligent stamping workshop in the future.
Xianfeng was established in 2002 and employs around 200 people at its site in Jiangsu, Zhenjiang. Four workshops, an office building and a multi-functional building cover a floor space of approximately 40,000m
2 there. Xianfeng is also a good partner for top customers like Bosch, Continental, Brose, Tesla, BYD and Greatwall. The company is now looking to boost its production capabilities to double sales by 2025.
