Part of our forging philosophy is the manufacturing of dies in our in-house tool shops. This is the only option that ensures direct feedback from the manufacturing department. This knowledge and practical experience can be used to optimise the tools and to enable a continuous improvement process.
An important element of our tool shop is the use of filter-run welding in order to provide for optimal wearing quality and maximal durability.
Our dies are manufactured with modern CNC milling and drilling machines as well as high speed cutting machines (HSC) according to the latest technologies. For special applications we also use wire cut EDM and die sinking.
