Chris McMahon – ANDRITZ Schuler North America

In this episode of Manufacturing Unscripted, host Peter Parsons welcomes back Chris McMahon, Sales Manager at ANDRITZ Schuler North America in Canton, Michigan, to talk about what’s new at Schuler — including the company’s recent transition to ANDRITZ Schuler and the installation of their third hydroforming press.

Chris explains Schuler’s role as a press manufacturer, hydroforming specialist, and tooling supplier, and why hydroforming remains a powerful solution for creating complex, high-strength parts with strong consistency and repeatability. He also shares some of the tradeoffs manufacturers need to consider, including longer cycle times and higher upfront costs.

The conversation also touches on Chris’s experience selling both parts and dies, how Schuler supports customers across the full production process, and what he’s seeing in the market right now. While he’s encouraged by new vehicle programs and growing product activity, he also shares thoughtful concerns about how suppliers will navigate the changing manufacturing landscape.
