Sheet Metal Division

The Sheet Metal Division designs and manufactures automated equipment for the production of sheet metal structural parts of refrigerators. In particular we manufacture:

Refrigerator outer doors:

• Open doors or flanged doors in their short sides
• Embossed doors or bended doors
• Doors with more or less complex gasket retainer

Refrigerator cabinets:

• U-shaped cabinet (top and side panels in a three sided wrap configuration)
• Single side panels
• Top panels
• Bottom panels

QS Group manufactures complete systems for the production of above-mentioned components starting from coil or blank sheet. QS Group may also supply punching benches, multiple bending units and flanging/embossing units. The various stations, which make up the lines, are equipped with integrated automated transfer systems. Both stations and transfer systems are completely customized according to the product and Customer´s specifications.

The bending profiles of the different panels can be manufactured by means of bending machines: interpolated bending or wing bending machines. Alternatively, they can be obtained by means of roll forming, according to the type of product to be manufactured. In particular QS Group has developed a new technology for electrical driven bending machines that guarantees a high precision, speed and repeatability of the process.

QS Group can supply systems dedicated to produce specific products and/or flexible systems to manufacture products within a range of different dimensions and features.
Automated machines for riveting, clinching and welding can be integrated in the systems.
