In terms of production know-how, manufacturers and suppliers of the automotive industry are without doubt among the technology leaders worldwide. This status and the tough competition for market shares forces the industry to continuously increase its production efficiency. In the last few years, this has sparked a veritable race for optimal production methods that in many areas have become increasingly similar. For example, reaming is competing with eroding, welding with bonding and hard-turning with grinding.
The Winterthur Technology Group is one of the automotive industry's leading innovators and is the only manufacturer of precision grinding solutions to offer application consulting, machines, grinding wheels, software, cooling/lubricating systems and tool logistics - in short the full range of grinding technology and on-site services - from a single source and around the world. The company regularly provides proof of the fundamental importance of grinding in an industry in which numerous developments cannot be realised without innovative grinding technology.
In the light of these challenging requirements and the complexity of the manufacturing processes required in the automotive industry, we rely on consultants who combine know-how in both automobile manufacturing and grinding technology in order to provide pinpointed grinding solutions for any automotive production area. We therefore recommend you to please contact one of our consultants before making any long-term decisions.
Engines from 50 to 50,000 ccm, transmissions or suspension components: our grinding systems ensure optimal drive and consistently optimise the value-added along the entire production chain.
