TURNING AND ASSEMBLIES
FOR A WIDE INDUSTRY SPECTRUM

The demands on precision turned parts and assemblies are getting higher, the tolerances ever closer. That is why it is important to know the requirements for precise and high-precision turned parts from a large number of projects.

For decades, Schuler has been a sought-after discussion partner for design engineers from a wide variety of industries. From the automotive industry and engine technology through hydraulics and aviation to sensors and medical technology. Together, we define what your turned parts or assemblies have to do and which requirements they have to meet. Such discussions often lead to improvements or simplifications, which can significantly reduce costs.

The expertise of Schuler also results from this increased know-how. We have gained experience in many years of cooperation with various industries and the most demanding designers.

The automotive industry is one of the most important industrial sectors. Large quantities of inexpensive, top-quality turned parts and assemblies have to be supplied in this sector. As a preferred supplier for OEMs and as a Tier1 supplier, Schuler has the complete know-how to reliably meet the highest demands. From simultaneous engineering, prototype production and sampling, the selection and implementation of the optimal production technology, the management of suppliers, securing qualities and quantities to timely deliveries, Schuler covers the entire range of services with the utmost precision.

We supply precision turned parts and assemblies for, e.g.,

• STEERING TECHNOLOGY
• MAGNETIC VALVES
• ENGINE TECHNOLOGY
• EXHAUST TECHNOLOGY

Precision parts and assemblies that are used in hydraulic gearboxes have to meet special performance parameters.  Various machining operations in a high manufacturing depth as well as very narrow tolerances and a total absence of burrs are all required.  We are using state-of-the-art measuring technology in order to reliably meet the precision required for many different precision parts.  In addition, our in-house laboratory equipment ensures that residual dirt criteria are met. 

Whenever continuity of performance and security are needed, Schuler should be your preferred destination.  Thanks to our comprehensive machinery, our modern measuring equipment and the in-depth know-how of our employees, we are exceptionally well equipped for the special demands that hydraulic systems require. 

In the area of hydraulic systems, we produce precision turned parts and assemblies as, e.g.

• CONTROL VALVES AND PISTONS, POLISHED AND BRUSHED
• VALVE BODIES, HONED AND BRUSHED
• VALVE SEATS, EMBOSSED
• PAIRED VALVES

Complex and precise components for engine and transmission technology are subjected to high stresses in everyday use.  In order to achieve the required properties regarding wear and strength, high-strength materials are used and processed further in various heat treatment processes. From jet skis to the Mars Rover, Schuler is a sought-after partner when the goal is to achieve top drive technology performances with precise or highly precise turned parts or assemblies. 

In the area of engine and transmission technology, we produce precision turned parts and assemblies as, e.g.

• AXLES AND SHAFTS
• ROCKER ARM SHAFTS
• VALVE SPRING RETAINERS
• ADJUSTMENT SCREWS
• GEARS AND PINIONS
• CONTROLLER CYLINDERS FOR MANUAL TRANSMISSIONS
• COMPRESSOR SHAFTS FOR TURBOCHARGERS
• SHAFTS FOR OIL AND WATER PUMPS

Measuring and controlling ecological, biological or technical parameters is important in order to reliably produce data, forecasts and products.  This requires turned parts and assemblies made from high-strength, stainless and acid-resistant materials that will function reliably even in the toughest conditions.  In this area, a highly precise production is supplemented by optimally tuned component cleaning technology.  Proven to be grease-free and clean, the components can be laser-welded and assembled directly as high-strength connections.

In the area of sensor technology, we produce highly precise precision parts and assemblies:

• CONNECTING ELEMENTS, SUCH AS CONNECTIONS, ADAPTERS AND HOUSINGS,
• MADE FROM COMPLETELY STAINLESS AND ACID-RESISTANT MATERIALS, SUCH AS 1.4301, 1.4404, 1.4435, 1.4571, 1.4542, ...
• MEASURING CELLS
• EXPERIENCE IN THE CHIPPING OF SPECIAL ALLOYS, SUCH AS HASTELLOY, INVAR, TITAN IUM AND TITANIUM-ALUMINIUM 

As a supplier of the aviation industry, we know the effect that large swings in temperature and centrifugal forces can have on service life and functional reliability. That is why the principle for our precision parts and assemblies for the aviation industry is "high quality + safety first".

We manufacture precision turned parts and assemblies for the following aviation sector applications:

• FUNCTIONAL PARTS INTERIOR
• SUPERFINISHING PROCESS FOR RZ <0.5
• ALUMINIUM
• PROCESSING OF STAINLESS STEELS AND SPECIAL MATERIALS
• ENGINE COMPONENTS FOR SPORTS AEROPLANES

Using the principles and rules of the engineering sciences, even the health and quality of life of people can be improved.  That is why the field of medical technology is becoming increasingly important.  Our precision turned parts made from special materials, such as titanium, help improve medical and dental diagnostics and therapies.

In the medical technology sector, we particularly manufacture precision turned parts for

• DENTISTRY
• IMPLANTS
• MINIMALLY INVASIVE SURGERY
• ENDOSCOPY
