Next-Generation Software Control: The MHSU features the Classic Cut software with an intuitive touch display. With up to 9 programmable steps in the cutting sequence, which automatically adjusts the back gauge for varying lengths on the same sheet, speeding up production while minimising waste.
Applications & Best Uses
The machine’s primary advantage is its automated precision and handling efficiency.
-
Architectural & Roofing Components: Used heavily for prepping precise blanks for building facades, roofing panels, and flashings. It pairs seamlessly with folders (like the PowerBend or PBA series) to create an optimised, end-to-end workflow
-
Cosmetic & Delicate Surface Cutting: Designed to cleanly slice sensitive sheet metals (like pre-painted aluminium, polished stainless steel, and soft architectural copper) without scratching.
-
High-Volume Workshop Blanking: Reaches operating speeds of up to 34 strokes per minute in continuous mode, making it excellent for rapid batch cutting.
The Schroeder MHSU advantage
The MSHU features a compact, intuitive layout and an ergonomic design that makes it easy to operate without specialised training. All essential controls and displays are centrally located on the main control panel for quick, operator-friendly access.
-
Classic Cut Control: Powered by the touch-operated Classic Cut software, you can effortlessly program complex, 9-step cutting sequences.
-
High Structural Rigidity and Accuracy: Built on a completely torsion-free, rigid welded construction.
-
Patented Sheet Holding & Intelligent Scrap Selection: The redesigned MHSU features a unique, highly flexible sheet holding device. When paired with the touchscreen Classic Cut control system, operators can program the machine to automatically drop trimming cuts/scrap into a front sheet chute while feeding finished “good parts” out the back onto a stacking cart
