Perforated sheets are produced using special technologies. Extensive knowledge of metalworking is also helpful here. SCHÄFER Lochbleche offers comprehensive solutions in perforated sheet production and relies on modern machines and processes.
Since 1937, the SCHÄFER WERKE Group has stood for expertise and innovation in steel processing. Our product range includes standard materials such as steel, stainless steel and aluminium, as well as special materials such as copper, zinc, brass and plastic. In this article, you will learn everything about the materials, manufacturing techniques and versatile applications of perforated sheets as components.
SCHÄFER perforated sheets processes a wide range of materials. Standard materials such as steel, stainless steel and aluminium form the basis of our products. Copper, zinc, brass and plastic are also available for special requirements. Each material has its own advantages and areas of application, which can vary depending on the project.
Our manufacturing techniques are designed for maximum precision and efficiency. Perforated sheets (also known as perforated plates) are produced using wide presses.
This allows perforation across the entire width of the material in a single operation. The process is also ideal for larger series.
In addition, we use punch laser machines to offer a combination of precision and flexibility.
Our perforated sheets are available in various formats. Over 400 hole patterns are available from us at short notice. Of course, we also offer customised cuts and hole patterns according to our customers' requirements.
The manufacturing process at SCHÄFER Lochbleche begins with detailed consultation and planning. Once the specifications have been defined, the order is implemented in our machine park. Quality assurance and final inspection are essential components of every manufacturing order to ensure the highest standards.
Our services also include pre-processing, which encompasses various techniques such as perforating, edging, notching and laser cutting. Finishing can be carried out using various methods such as degreasing, coating and anodising. These processes help to increase the longevity of the perforated sheets.
After perforation, the sheets are processed in straightening machines to remove tension in the material. The result depends on the material, sheet thickness, edges and perforation. This ensures that the end products meet the exact specifications.
Perforated sheets from SCHÄFER are used in numerous industries. They are used in facades, as sun and noise protection and in modern furniture. They are also used as components in vehicles such as tractors and off-road vehicles.
Our perforated sheets offer the perfect balance between stability and air permeability.
Environmental awareness is a central aspect of our corporate philosophy. We use recycled materials and sort scrap metal for efficient reuse. The use of CO2-reduced steels supports our sustainable production.
New technologies are shaping the future of perforated sheet metal production. SCHÄFER perforated sheets remains a pioneer in the industry and is continuously developing innovative solutions. The further development of production and adaptation to future requirements are a matter of course for us.
SCHÄFER perforated sheets offers first-class solutions in perforated sheet production. From the selection of materials to the use of state-of-the-art machines and finishing. We are your reliable partner. Use our perforated sheet configurator or contact us for tailor-made solutions.
