We understand that unique challenges demand tailored solutions. Our special parts and custom fasteners simplify your supply chain, reduce costs, and deliver consistent quality. As your one-stop shop we provide you with custom fasteners and special parts such as

  • CNC parts
  • Machining (turned parts and milled parts)
  • Cold-formed and hot-forged parts
  • Punched and bent parts
  • Thread cutting and milling
  • Prototypes for series production
  • Functional coatings and mechanical finishing treatments
  • Kitting

Depending on batch sizes, required delivery times, material specifications, or manufacturing tolerances, different manufacturing processes may be optimal for you. Together, we select the most efficient option for your application.

Our Technological Capabilities

Turned and Milled Parts (Machining)

When you require high precision, low tolerances, and complicated, forms metal-cutting production comes into play. This involves turning, milling, and drilling. We supply a wide range of machined parts in all common materials, batch sizes, dimensions, and surface treatments for the perfect interaction of your products.

Materials:

  • All machinable steels
  • Non-ferrous metals and plastic
  • Stainless steels
  • Many special-purpose steels

Formed Parts (Hot-Forged and Cold-Formed Parts)

Formed parts are characterized by high material utilization, short production times, and increased strength. They are also particularly cost-effective. Material, drive style, manufacturing tolerances, and other comparable requirements dictate whether a specialty item can be produced by either cold forming or hot forging.

Hot-forged parts materials:

  • All established steels, including stainless steels
  • Special-purpose materials such as nimonic on request

Cold-formed parts materials:

  • All established steels, including stainless steels
  • Aluminum
  • Brass
  • Special-purpose steel and titanium on request

Punched and Bent Parts

Fastening elements, washers, and many other parts for machinery and equipment construction are formed with punching and bending technologies. For punched and bent parts, we offer all currently available manufacturing processes as well as all possibilities of dimensions and surface coatings. Our partners are manufacturing specialists for any requirements.

Materials:

  • All established steels, including stainless steels
  • Spring steels
  • Non-ferrous metals
  • Special-purpose materials on request

On request, small production runs can also be cut with laser, plasma, or water jet, depending on the part’s geometry.

Want to increase process reliability and reduce the overall cost of a connection? For this purpose, we offer more than 150 different coatings and post-treatments.

Corrosion protection, friction coefficient optimization, appearance, or increased wear resistance – all of this can be achieved with the right surface treatment. Our experts help you choose the right solution for your product.

Functional Coatings

Selection of functional coatings

Functional coatings are system solutions for fastening elements that are exposed to mechanical stress, such as screws and nuts. Depending on the coating, they provide a locking, securing (captive), holding, or sealing function.

What to Know About the Final Finish

Other Custom Services

Assemblies

Procure fully assembled and tested assemblies in your desired packaging – from simple mini-assemblies to electro-mechanical units. This allows you to eliminate process steps and focus on your specific know-how in the final assembly.

Mounting and Accessory Kits

In addition to assemblies, we also make kits. We supply you with kits of the most varied components, accurately counted, neatly packed and labeled, or printed according to your specifications.
