Welcome Your Specialist for Short Tubes Made to Measure

Stainless steel tubes, filter tubes, beaded tubes, precision steel tubes or tube coverings - the rounding machines on our production lines produce versatile short tubes with guaranteed exact and uniform rounding over the entire tube circumference, which are perfect for further processing. As a subcontractor, we are extremely versatile and can produce tube lengths of up to 1,500 mm and diameters of 5-1,000 mm with a sheet thickness of 0.5-5 mm. For resistant, trouble-free and visually clean weld seams, our specially trained specialists use various established welding techniques depending on the material and guarantee consistent quality at the highest level. In addition to processing in state-of-the-art CNC laser welding systems, TIG, roll seam or spot welding are also used as required. Which tube can we manufacture for you?

In terms of manufacturing technology, the production of conical pipes is particularly demanding because of the different diameters at the pipe ends. We do not only have the right machines to produce complicated conical tube designs with precision, but also plenty of experience in solving demanding challenges in this context. We can produce conical tubes up to a length of 700 mm with a maximum sheet thickness of 2.5 mm.
Discuss your requirements with our specialists and receive your finished tube solution.

Upon request, we also perform a variety of forming operations following tube production to provide you with workpieces that meet your exact requirements. The following forming operations are available:

• Calibrating
• Beading
• Flanging
• Up-beading
• Expanding
• Reducing
• Crimping

With our laser welding services we offer a cost-effective and precise alternative to conventional welding processes. Our state-of-the-art welding robots guarantee fast, repeatable results and can handle even the most demanding welding tasks with consistently high quality. With minimal human effort, our laser welding systems produce weld seams with millimeter precision. Our range of services includes both circumferential seam welding in the range from 5 mm to 200 mm and longitudinal seam welding. Individual dimensions can also be realized at the customer's request. The weld seams impress with their smooth and high-quality appearance. We process stainless steel and steel, adapted to your specific requirements. Laser welding enables us to meet deadlines and achieve high repeat accuracy, even for large quantities. These properties make it an extremely efficient and economical technology. Contact us to find out more about our laser welding services and place an order to experience our capabilities at first hand.

We manufacture complete modules for all industrial fields. These modules are based on our high-precision short tubes and installed, for example, in exhaust systems (automotive), filter elements or measuring instruments (e.g. with sensors for fine dust measurement). In addition to the production of straight and conical tubes, we also cut, form, weld and engrave a wide variety of sheet metal for you. Furthermore, we can provide professional surface treatment and coating for your tubes and tube modules using a variety of techniques. We will make you a comprehensive offer and deliver even complex assemblies to you quickly for further processing. Contact us now and challenge us.

On our high-performance, CNC-controlled processing machines, we can implement high-quality engravings to label, mark or individualize components in-house. Sheet metal as well as finished tubes and modules can be engraved quickly and precisely. Engraving is equally suitable for the finalization of prototypes, individual pieces and for series production.

With our modern machinery, we can offer high-precision punching and cutting services for parts up to 6 mm thick. That means that we stamp, form, thread, emboss, sign, engrave and deburr with great accuracy. For example, we can create standard contours and shapes such as lugs or threads, but also high-quality individual outer contours and intricate inner contours. The sophisticated CO2 laser technology ensures impressive cutting accuracy and outstanding edge quality.
