Schaeffler Special Machinery: more than just machines

Years of experience in designing and building custom-made production machines and production lines form the basis of our extensive services. We offer comprehensive expertise from product development and series production through to end-of-line manufacturing.

Building a quality machine is something we have excelled at for years. However, we truly differentiate ourselves through our care throughout the entire process, ensuring that you, the customer, have an optimal experience.

Our approach

Every product requires its own solution and its own approach. That is exactly what we do at Special Machinery.

Free consultation

We would be happy to visit you to determine the best solution for your needs. We offer free, no-obligation advice on the various possibilities. Let us take a look at your production process. What can be made more efficient? What can be automated? Which feeding technology is best suited for your product?

Your knowledge of your production process and product is essential.

Of course, you are also more than welcome to visit us in Barneveld.

A comprehensive analysis

We have several test systems in our test room. This enables us to do a quick pre-scan with your product in order to advise you the right solution.

Because we have test set-ups of both vibratory fillers and robot vision, you also get an insight into the pros and cons of different techniques. This enables us to come up with the best solution for you. Thanks to our years of experience, we can advise you on what best suits your product and your business case.

The first layout

Our engineering department creates a layout in 3D. Naturally, this file is shared with you so that this layout can fit into your composition. Depending on the scope of the project, several progress meetings will be scheduled involving you.

Building your solution

After the layout has been approved, our specialists start working for you in the workshop.

We have all the expertise in-house. Our vibrator builders, programmers, engineers and system builders work closely together.

Testing and acceptance

After extensive internal testing, the system is taken away by you (FAT). Only when you are 100% satisfied will we make the system ready for transport.

Transport and commissioning

We place high demands on the packaging and transport of your project. Once the system is on your shop floor, our technicians can install the system at your site up to SAT. In many cases, you can start using the system without our help. Plug&play!

Project and quality management

Quality, cost control, delivery reliability - we ensure that all aspects of the project, from concept to realization and commissioning, are managed effectively and efficiently. We attach great importance to the quality of our work and therefore maintain strict quality standards and an integral process culture. This guarantees success even in dynamic projects.

Digital engineering

Digital Engineering

Digital twins, simulations of material flows or workplace design - with our 3D software tools, we validate concepts even before they are built. Digital simulation enables us to design and validate plants and processes at an early stage, allowing us to identify necessary adjustments in time and significantly reduce lead times.
