Schwabe (SR) Series Die Cutting Presses Hydraulic
Shows Schwabe SR series of cutting presses range of Hydraulic Presses.The Schwabe SR series Hydraulic Press has significant advantages over other press designs:
The Schwabe Straight Ram design allows for full tonnage over the entire stroke of the platen.
The press structure is simple and has only three moving parts namely: platen, center guide, and hydraulic cylinder rods.
Because of this design simplicity the maintenance of the press itself is limited to lubrication.
Side die loading is one option with this design which cannot be done with some other press types. The press dimensions can be customized without affecting the action of the press. This is because the platen guiding and cylinder mounting are centralized in the top structure.
The bed height can be lower than pull down or base linkage presses since the beds only function is to provide a flat stiff structure.
Hydraulic cylinders are removable from the open structure of the top piece not hidden in a table bed structure. Rod seals can be changed without removing the cylinders in most designs.
The central large diameter guide column makes it possible to die cut against a soft pad without the need for positive stops. The floating design allows the platen to conform to moderate off-center loading.
The SR can be fitted with various positive stop configurations: table, platen, and overhead mounted stops. The over head stops are especially suited for side die loading applications.
The hydraulic cylinder placement, when used on a solid platen, tends to elastically match the deflection of the table bed rather than the separation that will occur with pull down press designs.
Wear items are few consisting of the guide bushings, center guide, and anti-rotation cam roller and guide bar all of which have long life expectancies. Presses operating in abrasive or corrosive environments can be easily modified with protective bellows and material selection to suit.

HERMAN SCHWABE
Herman Schwabe was an American pioneer in the manufacture of die cutting machinery, which later developed into the sophisticated hydraulic die cutting presses we know today.
Herman Schwabe began his career in 1935 as an enterprising young man in the highly competitive footwear sales market.
He founded Herman Schwabe Inc. in a small loft in New York City to take advantage of the need for high speed, efficient and accurate die cutting machinery.
The Herman Schwabe design of the cutting press and quality products established its reputation in excellence.
The manufacturing of the cutting presses was originally based in Hazelton, Pennsylvania, and Herman Schwabe was always proud to say Schwabe cutting presses are Made in U.S.A.
The key to the Herman Schwabe success was the engineering design of the press and choice of materials.
The Herman Schwabe cutting presses are world renowned for efficient cutting and a machine which is dependable.
The Schwabe Clicker Press is a most rugged heavy duty clicker available, and continues to serve manufacturing needs throughout the world.
Herman Schwabe simplified the most complex die cutting task with the Schwabe cutting presses which are still technically advanced and the most versatile in the industry.
Today Freeman Schwabe supplies a full range Schwabe cutting presses to meet every cutting need, regardless of shape or size, material or production requirements, and the Schwabe hydraulic cutting presses range from 25 Ton to the large format 2,500 Ton Schwabe Hydraulic Straight Ram Press.

INCREMENTAL FEED SYSTEM
Ideal for cutting automotive interiors (non-leather).
Manual or automatic feed systems available.
Designed to incrementally feed dieboards that are larger than the press.
Available with extension tables for easy, manual lateral transfer of dieboards on & off the feed system for picking & spreading.
Various automatic transfers are also available.
FULL HIDE LEATHER CUTTING
Able to handle full hides with automatic infeed & outfeed continuous belt conveyors.
Able to handle die boards up to 98" wide x 108" long (2.5m x 2.7m).
Simple ease of loading & unloading of dieboards for more per hour production.
Press design eliminates die jumping which reduces die damage. Standard accessories are anti kick-up devices for dies and infeed sensors & receivers.
