DRIVEN BY INSPIRATION AND EXPERIENCE
BUILDING OUTSTANDING MACHINE TOOLS AND VISES
We are convinced that nothing is impossible. Thinking and acting unconventionally is therefore part of our corporate DNA. This allows us to develop machine tools and clamping technology that not only meet the high demands of our markets, but also secures real competitive advantage for our customers – anywhere, anytime.
Whether for the bandsaw, industrial gear rack or automotive industry, our drive and passion for inspired engineering has allowed us to deliver world-class milling, grinding and setting machines and machine tool vises for over 130 years. In our design offices and manufacturing locations, our innovations are continually setting new standards. Moreover, one thing is for sure: redefining what is possible is something we will never stop doing.
