Sinop SMP celebrates 10th year anniversary with Open House festival
After 5 years we organized the event of the Open House and went to work on Saturday, with smile on our face and our friends and family members by our side. This time there was a genuine reason for the party as we have been celebrating the jubilee – 10 years since the founding of Sinop SMP in Homole. Our employees could show where they work and how are machines and facilities look like. After the tours in the manufacturing area, we all gathered on the backyard behind the production hall, where all visitors, regardless of age, found their happy place. Bouncy castles, ice cream cones or a catering stand served by our chiefs of production. The enjoyable atmosphere was completed by a live band and of course, we did not forget to order the sunny weather…

Redesign of our websites
In our company the innovation takes place not just in the realm of fabrication machines. Our websites have deserved a new design for a long time – and now they got it! The intention is to present our range of technologies and the typical products manufactured by Sinop so you get the idea about our manufacturing capabilities. The focus was laid on easy on the eye design and creative photos featuring our employees and representing our mindset. We are hoping that you find all you need here and that you like it.
Modernization of lighting
In September 2023 we carried out a complete replacement of luminaires in our company. In total more than 500 lights were changed. The new energy-efficient LED lights are not just saving electricity but also improving the work comfort of our employees.
Roller Levelling Machine
Our machine park was complemented with a precision leveller from German manufacturer Arku. This high-performing Roller Levelling Machine enables us to flatten laser-cut parts or stamped parts up to 15 mm of sheet metal thickness. The flatness of 0,1 mm can be achieved as a standard. The parts are not just made perfectly flat, but the material is also relieved of internal stresses. Thanks to that the subsequent bending or welding of the parts tends to be more stable and time-efficient. Right now we newly offer the sheet metal precision flattening as a service for our customers.
Machining center Hermle C400 + Handling System Flex
In Sinop we have been happily producing on the machining center Hermle over the 6 years already.

This time enhanced and equipped with a so-called Handling System Flex. It is possible to load workpieces to up to 22 pallets from where they are automatically fed into the milling area and subsequently stored back. This high degree of automation propels our efficiency and facilitates more effective use of our resources.
More technical information:

This gantry measuring machine equipped with air-bearing gantry gauges offer simply next level of mechanical accuracy and measuring reliability. Due to the intelligent software the measurements can be reliably automated.
Measuring range:
X= 800 mm, Y= 1500 mm, Z= 700 mm
Vertical Carousel Storage System Kardex
Our family of vertical automated storage systems has grown. The new Kardex Megamat is located next to our powder coating system. Its 40 carriers will easily fit up to 500 boxes with powder coating paint.
TruBend Cell 5000 + Tool Master
In Sinop we already have an extensive experience in sheet metal bending and folding. We are now expanding our competence further with the productive robotized system. The new universal bending cell TruBend Cell 5000 is the perfect solution to bend parts up to length of 4200 mm and weight of up to 40 kg. This powerful machine takes care of serial production and tedious work thus allows our experienced employees to focus on the single-item production or more complex parts. The machine is also equipped with an automatic tool magazine Tool Master offering currently the highest possible grade of automation.
Software TruTops Boost
We are programming almost all of our laser, punching and bending machines from the office. The advanced options provided us with the TruTops Boost software allows us to make even more efficient use of material. The programming of our press-breaks saves our time and expensive trial & error tests.
