News from HEDELIUS Maschinenfabrik.

The innovative Metallverarbeitung Uwe Ebertz GmbH is based in Sinn-Fleisbach, Hesse. Since its foundation, the family business has undergone a transformation from a sheet metal processor to a comprehensive service provider in metal processing. Modern technologies made in Germany are used, such as the Tiltenta 7-3200 machining centre from HEDELIUS Maschinenfabrik GmbH.

Martin CNC-Präzisionsteile, a contract manufacturing company based in Asslar, Hesse, has opened up its chipping operations to machines from HEDELIUS, thereby significantly expanding its product range. Another benefit: the high level of accuracy thanks to five-sided machining.

It is already the fourth HEDELIUS that Alwin Lamping, owner and managing director of LWM Werkzeug- und Maschinenbau GmbH, has in his machine park. The toolmaker from Vechta did not hesitate for long when making his latest investment. He experienced the ACURA 65 live under chip removal at the last AMB in Stuttgart and was immediately impressed by the extremely compact high-performance machine.

Sheet metal processing is the core business of the 150-strong medium-sized company mech-tron from Roding. In order to meet the constantly growing customer requirements, one of the leading manufacturers of housings for electronic and embedded equipment has also grown in other technology areas, particularly in milling.

Förster Sondermaschinen GmbH**, based in Lindlar, not far from Cologne, specialises in the manufacture of customer-specific precision components. The batch size of the milled parts produced is usually between 1 and 10: Thanks to a highly flexible, customer-oriented production organisation, the customer can call off the parts as required.

Since its foundation in 1986, D+P, Dosier- und Prüftechnik GmbH has been developing and producing highly complex standard products and customised systems for applying and dispensing liquids, greases and pastes as well as for assembling components and testing functions. The products of the 60-strong company are mainly used in the automotive and electrical industries as well as in mechanical engineering, assembly technology and the air and space industry.

The wind tunnel system at European Transonic Windtunnel GmbH is currently being modernised and its range of capabilities expanded. This also includes the modernisation of the workshop, for which a Tiltenta 6-2300 from HEDELIUS was purchased. This means that full and half models of aeroplanes up to 2.30 m in length can now be machined in a single set-up.

The success story of Bathon GmbH began over 40 years ago with toolmaking as a sideline. Today, the family business has closed its doors as a versatile service provider in the metalworking industry. Flexible production is an important success factor. A HEDELIUS machining centre is also used for this purpose.

The BAADER Group, which has been in existence for almost a hundred years, has been family-owned since it was founded in 1919 and now employs a good 1100 people worldwide, 500 at its headquarters in Lübeck alone. The centre of gravity at the northern German site is clearly on the production of fish processing machines.
