Machine construction

WASSERMANN is the right machining company for you if your requirements in terms of function, reliability and quality assurance are high. We are the perfect fit if you want to have standard components and special parts manufactured in series, but small series are not your goal.
With us, you have a flexible problem solver that significantly simplifies your supplier management. Our range of products, services and potential series parts for mechanical engineering is huge.

Quality control at its best

Hand over quality control to your supplier so that you do not lose time unnecessarily due to an incoming goods inspection. With our modern measuring and testing technology, we create reliable quality values and document all results. We are happy to have our quality assurance independently confirmed in an audit.

Function-critical parts and ready-to-install modules

With WASSERMANN, you have a partner who manufactures function-critical parts and ready-to-install modules in outstanding quality – even for large quantities and recurring components.

You will also be able to assure your customers of high, binding standards in the future with complete peace of mind. After all, promises kept are the best prerequisite for long and trusting customer relationships.

Nimble change: Our production: immediate adaptability as needed

The degree of automation in our production is high. Nevertheless, we have designed our infrastructure to be so flexible that we can switch to change mode immediately if you need variants, a design has been adapted or fluctuations need to be absorbed.

No matter which plan has to be thrown overboard tomorrow – we will find a way.

The flood of organizational tasks is growing for every machine and system manufacturer. We relieve your team, you are welcome to delegate some tasks to us. For example, the issue of delivery capability. So that you are able to deliver even when a customer is in a hurry.

We keep material availability high and personnel capacities ready. We monitor the development of material prices. We do everything we can to fulfill requests with short delivery times.

Logistics that support your assembly

Which approach do you prefer? Just-in-time or just-in-sequence? We tailor our logistics processes to your production and coordinate closely with you. At WASSERMANN, the delivery agreement includes not only the delivery date but also the correct batch composition and pre-assembly. This ensures a seamless transition between logistics and assembly.

As a supplier to major OEMs, it is not only our industrial production that has to fit, but our processes and flexibility must also match our customers’ working methods.

• We have a flexible process landscape that is tailored to the customer’s requirements so that it can be seamlessly integrated into the customer’s series processes. This applies to QA, logistics, planning… We are therefore regularly invited to supplier days and customers present us as a model supplier
• Our series customers do not have to rely blindly on us as a supplier; we can communicate the current status of the production order at short notice at any time. Regular project reports are standard for us.
• Lean, visual management, one-piece flow – we use state-of-the-art methods and concepts that make sense for the series.

It’s great when standard components solve a technical problem. Standardization reduces costs and simplifies processes. But standard also means keeping the standard high. When we manufacture standard parts, we do so with the same precision and reliability as with complex custom-made products or special parts in small batches.

Special solutions for your machines

The challenges in machine and plant construction can often no longer be met with standardized parts and assemblies. For these cases, WASSERMANN manufactures special solutions – both for components and for ready-to-install assemblies.

With our modular system, we can build almost anything

Our modular system offers the ideal starting point for both cases, as it contains many parts and countless possible combinations. This allows us to achieve 90% of the result in the shortest possible time, even for custom-made products – the rest is customization.

The benefits for you

Significantly simpler variant management and shorter time-to-market, because only a few special parts need to be additionally developed and manufactured.

Mistakes can arise from misunderstandings. This also applies to product development. Open communication right from the start is the best safeguard against misunderstandings. That’s why many of our customers involve us at an early stage of development.

Our engineering team communicates with the customer’s developers right from the start. This enables us to accompany every step. Time and again, our team comes up with a completely different approach to a solution, which proves to make sense upon closer examination. As a rule, components and assemblies become more efficient or cheaper.

We also pay attention to production-oriented design, because production must not become a cost trap later on. We benefit from the know-how of our machining experts. We clarify potential problems before the first machine starts up.

Production at WASSERMANN works with a great deal of automation. Nevertheless, we can react flexibly because our processes are consistent but not set in stone. We remain relaxed with

• Fluctuations
• Design alterations
• New variants
• Changes in services

We accept changes and implement them. Quickly and reliably.

We are experienced in providing additional services relating to supplier management. We know how to efficiently design supplier qualification despite ever-increasing requirements.

If international delivery regulations require certain documents, these will be available. We keep an eye on the requirements for dealing with so-called conflict minerals.

REACH? Hook on. We also handle all customs formalities securely and if you want to carry out a customer audit with us, we will be prepared.

All in all: standards, rules and regulations are there to be adhered to. And we do. This is also part of our understanding of quality.

Estimating today what will happen the day after tomorrow. We have internalized this and incorporated it into our actions.

WASSERMANN regularly invests in new equipment because we want to offer our customers progress. New processes, cost-optimized production, new manufacturing concepts, faster throughputs, even greater precision, new and sophisticated materials – as soon as promising trends take off, we are right on their heels. We want to remain what we are: a modern technology company.

Acting with foresight also applies to procurement. We safeguard our customers’ procurement processes with proactive planning and analysis of requirements, call-off intervals, material availability and delivery times. This leads to a high level of transparency regarding the upcoming production phases.

Every machining company has its own profile – including us. Above all, the profile describes what we do and how we do it. We have presented many things to you. And it describes what we don’t do.

We leave some things to our partners because they are better equipped to deal with them. For the following requests, we give priority to other experts:

• Manufacturing technologies: Welding, sheet metal, gearing
• Materials: Plastics
• Standard parts: Screws, washers, spacer sleeves, and more
• Too-small piece counts: Individual items, except prototypes
• Unsuitable dimensions
  • Too large – milling: max. 5 x 3 x 1.2 m, turning: max. d 600 mm
  • Too small – milling: min. 20 x 20 x 20 mm, turning: d min. 10 mm, length ratio > 5 d
• Minimum order value: for components, 3000 € per variant; for assemblies 5000 € per variant.
