What We Do
We machine metal and plastic components to perfection, using techniques such as:
• CNC turning and CNC milling (also combined in a single cycle)
• Wire EDM, die-sinking EDM and CNC grinding techniques
• Machining of stainless steel, aluminum, copper alloys and technical plastics
• One-off pieces and series production
• Full automation through robot loading and CAM programming
For every project, we create a measurement report — proof of constant quality.
Our CNC Technology
We work with the latest generation of machines from top brands like Mazak, DMG & Hermle. Our infrastructure guarantees speed, reliability and exceptional finishing:
• Machines with 60 to 180 tools.
• Mill-turn machines for complex components.
• Various automation options: robot, pallet changer, bar feeder, automatic bar loading, …
• Milling spindles up to 18,000 rpm with high-pressure coolant through the spindle
• Probing and tool measurement with automatic compensation software
• 5-axis simultaneous machining
• Wire EDM and grinding machines for tight tolerances
• Climate-controlled production area
By combining all these techniques, we work faster and more precisely than traditional suppliers.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
What is the difference between CNC turning and CNC milling?
In turning, the workpiece rotates. In milling, the tool rotates. Our machines combine both operations in a single cycle, saving time and achieving higher precision.
What is CNC wire EDM?
CNC wire EDM is an extremely precise machining process where shapes are formed using electrical discharges. This process is ideal for tight tolerances and complex contours in hard materials.
Do you also provide measurement reports?
Yes. Every part is measured and delivered with a measurement report for guaranteed quality and traceability.
What is the average delivery time?
The delivery time depends on the complexity and batch size. For many parts, we offer short lead times. Rush orders are possible upon request.
