| When the machines were still green... | and hair was still long... | our operation began in this backyard workshop. | Back then, everything was hand made. |
 |
 |
| In the new, rented production hall... | there was now considerably more space available. |
 |
 |
|
| An order for five such moulds inspired us... | to invest in a CAD/CAM system from the company Cisigraph. |
 |
|
| We were finally able to carry out wire erosion ourselves, if “only” with a second-hand AGIE AC 200. |
 |
 |
|
| Bavaria's then Prime Minister Stoiber shows great interest in mould-making... | and, with us, signed the Golden Book of the city of Königsbrunn. |
 |
|
| Finally inside our own four walls. |
 |
The second-hand Ingersoll Gantry 800 replaced the three conventional Orion SE 600 and SE 800 sinker eroding machines. |
 |
 |
| A quantum leap in terms of speed: the Mitsubishi FA20. | With the Rofin StarWeldTool laser welding system we became even faster and more flexible at carrying out changes and repairs. |
 |
With two DMU 80T (one 5-axis version) we significantly upgraded our machining capabilities. |
 |
 |
|
| We outgrew our premises again and had to expand. | The extension increased the size of our production area and our offices and social areas. |
 |
Since dust-free graphite has not yet been developed we invested in an enclosed graphite milling machine - model TVB E-Jet 500. |
 |
 |
 |
| “Mould inserts from nothing”: with our M1 LaserCusing system from ConceptLaser... | we are able to produce mould parts generatively with conformal cooling. | With a second 5-axis milling machine, this time a DMU 80 monoBLOCK, we expanded our milling capability. |
 |
The normal 2-axis alignment and 3-axis simultaneous machining was no longer adequate. Together with Mecadat’s “VISI” we entered absolutely new territory with 5 axis-simultaneous machining. |
 |
 |
| Our 3D printer enables us to offer even better product development support for our customers. | The purchase of a Mitsubishi start hole drilling machine was long overdue. |
 |
 |
|
| Entry into automation with a Zimmer+Kreim erosion system. | Chameleon at work. |
 |
 |
| Investment in a TVB E-Jet 550 graphite milling machine for even greater quality at significantly shorter processing times. | The DMU 85 monoBLOCK means that our steel milling operation is now totally 5-axis. |
 |
|
| Thanks to our new MV2400R wire eroding machine from Mitsubishi, there are no more bottlenecks even in major projects. |
 |
The use of an ALM 250 mobile laser welding system from ALPHALASER enables to respond even more flexibly to the wishes of our customers. |
 |
|
| Production area expanded again. |
 |
| Expansion of erosion capacitie |
 |
 |
| Extension of our erosion cell by a Röders RXP 601 DSH 5-axis milling machine ... | Zeiss Duramax HTG CNC measuring machine |
 |
Our 5th laser is in operation and labelling diligently. |
 |
 |
| Fundamental renewal of our IT systems... | ... and transition to our new ERP system APplus. |
