Schüco has launched a five-week tour of the UK and Ireland, visiting its partners in a specially equipped van to demonstrate its latest advancements in machinery and digital solutions.
David Lomax, Business Development Manager and Southern Team Leader at Schüco joined the first leg of the tour. He explains: “At Schüco, we don’t just see our customers as customers — they’re partners. And events like this reinforce just how important those partnerships are to driving real progress in our industry.
“We’re proud to offer industry-leading systems, but that’s just the beginning. From design through to delivery, we’re committed to supporting our partners at every step — helping to unlock new levels of productivity, efficiency and performance across their operations.”
At the heart of the tour is Schüco cutting-edge machinery, designed to help fabricators streamline operations, increase precision and address challenges like skilled labour shortages.
Among the highlights is the LA 10 Locking Bar Machine, which has already sparked strong interest from partners. Capable of fabricating even the longest window locking bars in a matter of minutes, the LA 10 combines with Schüco software to handle the entire process, from calculation to automatic punching and cutting to length of locking bars, delivering exceptional speed and accuracy.
In addition to machinery and tooling support, the Tech Tour also highlights innovative digital solutions. These include the Internet of Façades (IoF) which provides a unique digital identity for every building element, streamlining lifecycle management and post-installation service.
Other innovations on show include the Fabrication Data Center, which provides access to a full suite of Schüco software, seamlessly connecting design and production for greater efficiency and precision.
Together, these tools are designed to help Schüco partners boost productivity and enhance long-term competitiveness in a rapidly evolving market.
