For over 30 years, Schmid Corporation has connected North American manufacturers with best-in-class production, converting, and testing equipment, backed by hands-on technical support. Today that includes an exclusive partnership with A2Z Filtration — with additional equipment categories under evaluation.
We supply and support the full range of A2Z filter manufacturing equipment — from single machines to complete production lines, configured for your specific media and application.
Versatile CNC blade pleaters capable of instant pleat depth and pack width changes across a wide range of filter media — from delicate membranes to heavy industrial materials.
High-speed rotary pleaters for consistent pleat height and media combinations. Servo-driven systems with on-the-fly parameter adjustment for minimal changeover time.
Precision slitting and cutting equipment to reduce labor and improve throughput in blade pleating, rotary, and mini-pleat filter production lines.
Specialized stringing equipment for filter element manufacturing, engineered to integrate seamlessly within your A2Z production line.
Quality assurance testing systems to verify filtration performance and validate production output against specification before product leaves the floor.
Roll stands, perforators, banding units, and supporting components to complete or upgrade your existing filter production line.
A2Z Filtration's manufacturing capability allows for fully custom-engineered, one-off machines built around your specific media, application, and production requirements. If standard equipment doesn't fit your process, we engineer the solution. Tell us what you're trying to produce.
Schmid Corporation is the exclusive North American distributor for A2Z Filtration — a world-class manufacturer of filter production equipment known for engineering precision and post-sale responsiveness.
A2Z Filtration designs and manufactures a comprehensive range of filter production equipment — from blade and rotary pleating lines, and automated filter assembly cells, to cutting and slitting, string winding, testing, and ancillary systems. Their engineering team specializes in custom machine configurations built around unique customer applications, and remains engaged post-sale with factory-level technical support.
Founded in 1993, Schmid Corporation has spent three decades building deep relationships with manufacturers across the United States, Canada, and Mexico — beginning in textiles and expanding into filtration, converting, testing, and precision production equipment along the way. We are not a catalog distributor — we are a technical sales partner who understands your production environment.
Our featured distributorship is A2Z Filtration equipment, where we serve as the exclusive North American representative — giving customers direct access to a world-class line of filter manufacturing machinery, backed by factory support and our own in-house field service. It's a good example of the kind of custom-engineered partnership we bring to every equipment line we represent.
When you work with Schmid, you get a team that has seen your application before, speaks your language, and stays engaged long after the machine ships.
