400-ton servo press introduced

Schuler has introduced the MSP 400 servo press for producing blanked and formed parts. The machine offers 400 tons of press force.

It uses an opposing pair of drive trains that feature electronic synchronization. These drive trains comprise a servomotor, a brake module, and an eccentric shaft. The shaft is made of a connecting rod, a hinged joint for quiet and rigid operation, and a slide. The pressure points are positioned well to the outside and to help improve tilting rigidity, which allows greater eccentric loads.

The oscillating stroke mode offers a customizable stroke height setting between 60 and 300 mm. The clamping surface for the bed and slide measures 2,500 by 1,200 mm.
