Schechtl after Pathfinder retrofit

Schechtl Folding Machine Retrofits

You don't need to spend the money on a new machine to get your trim shop operating more efficiently. Retrofitting your existing Schechtl controller can add years to your machine while providing the most advanced folding machine features available.

With your Schechtl Pathfinder retrofit, you'll open a world of possibilities. No more deleting old parts from your library to make room for new ones - you'll have unlimited part library space. Pathfinder's SmartPath technology automatically determines the optimum bending sequences for your parts, no matter how complicated the profile. After your upgrade even the least experienced operator on your floor can be as productive as the most experienced. Operators simply enter the profile in an easy-to-use interface and Pathfinder does the rest!

Best of all, installation is quick and painless. Our "drop-in" replacement kit installs on your Schechtl machine in less than two hours. You'll see the results immediately!

Integrate with your Office

When you add our Order Desk office automation system, you can even share your part library with any other folding machine, regardless of manufacturer. With Order Desk and Pathfinder, you can program your parts from any networked computer and the profiles will appear at your machine without a chance of operator error. Order Desk allows you to easily print or email customer sign-off drawings, too.

In addition to Schechtl, AMS can also retrofit machines from ASC, Biegemaster, Bradbury, Cidan, Jorns, Lobema, RAS, Roper Whitney, Tensol and Thalmann.
