Press Release | Reading time: min | Bildquelle: R. Scheuchl GmbH

R. Scheuchl GmbH, a leading provider of innovative foundry technologies, has initiated the planning of a state-of-the-art cooling and raw part processing line for aluminum cast components. The goal is to develop a flexible and cost-efficient production solution that meets the demands of next-generation electric motor housings. This project combines German engineering expertise with localized implementation in China, delivering a customized and economically viable solution for the client.

Automation for Precision and Efficiency

The fully automated process starts with the transfer of cast parts directly from the casting process and includes cooling, core removal, DMC laser marking, sawing, and deburring. This automation ensures the highest levels of precision, efficiency, and quality in the processing of aluminum cast components.

Flexible and Connected Production

The new processing line features flexible infeed and outfeed capabilities, as well as comprehensive traceability of all part data via RFID and data matrix code identifications. Robot-guided processes from the basis for future upgrades and enable flexible adaptation to additional or changed requirements. This ensures seamless traceability and maximum flexibility in production.

Future-Proof Through Modular Design

A planned expansion phase will allow existing production systems to be adapted for new part types. This flexible solution ensures that both current and future product generations can be efficiently manufactured—an essential advantage in a dynamic market environment.

With this innovative project, R. Scheuchl GmbH demonstrates how state-of-the-art technologies and flexible concepts can create tailored solutions that deliver maximum efficiency and quality. R. Scheuchl GmbH ultimately impresses customers with a combination of superior and reliable technology compared to local competitors, as well as attractive pricing and location advantages provided by its local branch.
