PERFORMING PERFECTION

SCHEUERMANN + HEILIG präsentierte sich an der STANZTEC erstmalig im neuen Look. Bereits Anfang des Jahres wurde der Relaunch des Markenauftritts mit der Neugestaltung der Unternehmenswebsite umgesetzt. Mit der Erweiterung der Technologiekompetenz von Metall hin zur inhouse Fertigung von Hybridbauteilen aus Metall und Kunststoff wurde der bisherige Claim „Metall in Bestform“ dem Unternehmen nicht mehr gerecht. Der neue Claim „Performing Perfection“ zeigt das Versprechen, das SH Kunden und Geschäftspartnern gibt für Produkte und Dienstleistungen: Perfektion bis ins kleinste Detail. Der technologische Fortschritt wurde nun sichtbar gemacht. Die STANZTEC war die Plattform für den neuen Messeauftritt von SH im frisch gestalteten Standdesign. Außerdem wurde den Besuchern die neu konzipierte Imagebroschüre vorgestellt.

SH erweitert sein Technologie-Portfolio mit Stanzpaketieren

SH konnte während der Messelaufzeit vielen bestehenden und potenziellen Kunden das umfangreiche Produktportfolio an Baugruppen aus Metall und Kunststoff, Stanzbiegeteilen und Federn zeigen. Als Technologieführer der Umformbranche standen bei SH verschiedene Innovationen besonders im Fokus der Fachbesucher. Die innovativen Entwicklungen greifen dabei aktuelle Branchenthemen auf und setzen sie umformtechnisch um. Ein Beispiel hierfür ist die neu ins Portfolio aufgenommene Technologie des Stanzpaketierens.

Erstmalig wurde mittels dieser neuen Technologie ein Bauteil aus dem Produktbereich Elektromotor entwickelt. Für dieses Produkt werden beispielsweise 23 identische Teile in einem einstufigen Fertigungsprozess aus Elektroblech präzise gestanzt und anschließend automatisiert in einem Paket mittels Prägekonturen verbunden. Diese Stanzpakete finden ihre Verwendung ua in Spulen für den Elektromotor und werden in hoher Hubzahl mit geringer Fertigungsdauer produziert. Der zunehmende Bedarf an Elektromotoren in allen Branchen mit seinen spezifischen Anforderungen an Effizienz, Ressourcenverbrauch und Kosten bedarf einer kontinuierlichen Weiterentwicklung von Fertigungsmöglichkeiten. Das Stanzpaket hat im Bauteil einen wesentlichen Einfluss auf die elektrischen, magnetischen und mechanischen Eigenschaften des Elektromotors und sollte in seiner Komplexität nicht unterschätzt werden. Das Know-how von SH in der neuen Fertigungstechnologie Stanzpaketieren bietet den Kunden ein noch breiteres Spektrum an innovativen Lösungsmöglichkeiten.

SH stellt sich der Herausforderung, seinen Kunden für deren hochanspruchsvolle Anwendungen hochpräzise Komponenten und optimale Prozesse zur Verfügung zu stellen und konnte die Fachbesucher der STANZTEC als Fortschrittstreiber der Branche überzeugen.

SH liefert zuverlässige und sichere Produktlösungen für hochsensible Anforderungen

Internationale Größen der Medizintechnik Branche nehmen in den letzten Jahren bei SH erfreulicherweise einen immer höheren Stellenwert im Kunden-Portfolio ein. Für den Medtech-Markt produziert SH anspruchsvolle Baugruppen in Millionenstückzahlen, die sich beispielsweise in Inhalatoren, Insulin-Pens, Blutzuckermessgeräten, Hörgeräten, Notfall-Pens oder Dialysegeräten wiederfinden. SH liefert für die hochsensiblen Anforderungen zuverlässige und sichere Produktlösungen. Die Kundenzufriedenheit spiegelt sich zum Beispiel in einem aktuellen Projekt der Medizintechnik Branche wider, bei dem SH aufgrund einer starken Volumenerhöhung des Kunden die bereits existierende Fertigungslinie um eine zweite Linie mit Sauberzelt erweitert. Die entwickelte Metallfeder wird in einem Inhalator verbaut. Das hochpräzise und höchsten Sauberkeitskriterien entsprechende Produkt wird mittels automatisiertem Fertigungsprozess hergestellt. Direkt nach dem Stanzprozess werden die Teile im Sauberzelt inline gereinigt und verpackt.

Inhouse-Kunststoffspritzen erweitert das SH-Portfolio

Seinen Kunden präsentiert sich SH als Anbieter für Komplettlösungen. Die Erweiterung des SH Produktportfolios der Metallumformung um die interne Produktion von Kunststoffteilen ermöglicht eine effiziente Gestaltung der Prozesskette bei der Herstellung von Baugruppen aus Metall- und Kunststoffprodukten und wird das Image im Markt als innovativer Partner branchenübergreifend ausbauen.

BLECHEXPO took place in Stuttgart, Germany between the 7th and 10th of November. It is the world’s second-largest trade fair for sheet metal working and processing and a major forum for the entire spectrum of firms active in this field. This time more than 1,300 exhibitors, including all large market leaders, attracted trade visitors from around the globe.

SCHEUERMANN + HEILIG (SH) showcased their entire product portfolio, including stamped and stamped + bent parts, springs and assemblies made of metal and plastic, as well as innovations developed in-house.

Innovative Ideas for the Automotive Industry

SH draw upon current and future industry themes, ideas and trends for developing and implementing trailblazing new products. Amongst other things, the firm presented an innovative project which it conducted for electric vehicles. Recent trends such as electric and hybrid drive technologies are confronting component producers with new challenges. An international automotive supplier, itself one of the leading specialists for bespoke high-voltage solutions, turned to SH’s experts with an idea for a completely new high-voltage connector. This collaboration led to the development of four components for installation in a latest-generation clutch system. Hybrid process technologies are also playing an increasingly important role at SH, and these highly sophisticated products – two stamped + bent components, an assembly and a plastic part – are now being efficiently manufactured in fully automated processes that include joining metal and plastic parts.

The news that SH have expanded their technical competencies in metal forming to include in-house plastic production has sparked great interest across industries. The firm’s product portfolio has included hybrid assemblies which integrate both metal and plastic parts for many years. In-house implementation of a complete process chain for metal forming in conjunction with plastics was therefore the logical next step in establishing SH as a complete solutions provider.

Large Portfolio for Medical Technology

A week after BLECHEXPO, SH participated in COMPAMED, which took place in Düsseldorf parallel to MEDICA 2017, the world’s largest trade fair for the medical industry. It featured makers of components, precursor products and raw materials for medical products, including a wide variety of high-tech solutions for use in medical technology.

SH also took advantage of this platform to acquaint trade visitors with their product portfolio. The firm has been supplying customised products to major global players in the field of medical technology for more than ten years. Millions of assemblies, stamped + bent parts and springs from SH are used in a wide range of products such as blood glucose meters, insulin pens, inhalers and hearing aids. The latest additions include a safety product: a protective cap for disposable syringes. The firm has also worked with another customer to develop two products for an epinephrine auto-injector for treating anaphylaxis, the annual demand for which exceeds 10 million units. This auto-injector is a life-saving companion for individuals with severe allergies. The activation mechanism, which contains both of the components produced by SH, performs a crucial life-saving function.

SH accepts the challenge of providing customers with suitable components and processes for their extremely demanding applications. 100% of safety-relevant products for meeting highly sensitive requirements are monitored and checked throughout production. SH integrate a wide diversity of forming technologies and various product post-treatments in a highly automated manufacturing process, which naturally also includes individual packaging under sterile conditions in a cleanroom. Customised product testing, also for microbiological contamination, is standard. All this ensures that SH’s customers receive optimal products which meet extremely exacting expectations.

By exhibiting at BLECHEXPO and COMPAMED, the Hainburg, Germany-based company attracted considerable attention to its product portfolio and expertise. SH also succeeded in reinforcing its reputation as a major innovation driver in international markets.

In 2014, the government of the German state of Baden-Württemberg decided to develop a strategy for fostering resource efficiency. The idea that crystallised was for various business associations and the state government to launch an Alliance for Greater Resource Efficiency. This then organised an initiative entitled “100 Firms for Resource Efficiency”. Applications were accepted from manufacturing firms operating in the state which had successfully implemented measures to use energy and/or materials more efficiently.

SCHEUERMANN + HEILIG submitted a solution which it had developed and installed for “saving energy by timed power-down of peripheral equipment in standby mode”. Earlier, in 2012, SH had already become one of the state’s first 50 firms to obtain certification under the DIN ISO 50001 energy management standard. The company defined energy saving targets in its corporate policies, which led to concrete action to improve sustainability. One such measure was the project submitted to the Alliance. Metal forming firms, which consume a great deal of electric power, have considerable potential for improving their energy efficiency.

The first step for reducing power consumption was to hold training courses for staff in which they learnt how to save energy, for example by completely switching off unused equipment (systems and machine peripherals in standby mode). It was then possible to tap additional savings potential by implementing an automated technical solution for controlled power-down of presses. At SCHEUERMANN + HEILIG, an “energy management team” is responsible for conducting various projects of this kind. Its members analysed the situation and drew up an action plan for automatic shutdown of equipment. Within just a few weeks, all of the firm’s eccentric-drive stamping presses were fitted with time-delay and logic relays, as a result of which SH now save more than 300,000kWh annually. This translates into about 180,000kg less CO2 emissions emitted into the earth’s atmosphere each year. The measures paid for themselves in only three months.

The winning firms were presented at the “Baden-Württemberg Resource Efficiency Congress” in Karlsruhe on October 5th, 2016. The state’s governor, Winfried Kretschmann, opened the event and congratulated the companies for their exemplary accomplishments. He stressed the great importance that the government of Baden-Württemberg attaches to this topic and emphasised “resource efficiency as a guiding principle of political action”. The state’s environmental minister, Franz Untersteller, also praised the companies and presented the official award document to SH’s managing director, Steffen Scheuermann, and Andreas Ehrenfried, the firm’s officer for environmental protection, energy management and occupational safety. SCHEUERMANN + HEILIG also received the sum of 10,000 euros, which is being spent on additional measures to conserve energy.
