No stress sheet metal for manufacturing.
KAESER supplies compressed air for C.A. Picard within the framework of a contracting agreement.
Picard uses high volumes of compressed air to produce hard-wearing tools and extruder technology. The contracting agreement with Kaeser is a highly cost-effective procurement option.
C.A. Picard in Remscheid-Hasten is renowned for the manufacture of durable machine-tool components for the lime sandstone industry and for foundries. Others products include stamping tools with unique properties and wear characteristics and press tools for the electronics industry.
It’s all about “zero stress”. The supplied sheets, which come as plates directly from the rolling mill, must first be relieved of the inevitable tension induced by the rolling process. And that requires compressed air. Which in this case is ever-present. Whether the application be hardening, grinding, milling or assembling – nothing works without compressed air. The grinding centres are the biggest consumers – each has its own air receiver. The work piece is shifted back and forth under the compressed air driven grinder to make it as flat as possible.
