Machine construction

WASSERMANN is the right machining company for you if you have high standards when it comes to function, reliability and quality assurance. We are the perfect fit if you need standard components and special parts manufactured in series, but you aren’t looking for small series production.We offer flexible solutions that will significantly simplify your supplier management. Our range of products, services, and potential series parts for machine construction is enormous.

Quality control at its best

Let your supplier take care of quality control, so you don’t have to spend time inspecting incoming goods. With our modern measuring and test equipment, we create lasting quality and document all results. We’re happy to have our quality assurance independently tested by audit.

Function-critical parts and ready-to-install modules

In WASSERMANN, you have a partner who manufactures function-critical parts and ready-to-install modules of outstanding quality – even for large quantities and recurring components.You’ll be able to assure your customers of a reliably high standard of quality as you move into the future. After all, promises kept are the best foundation for long-term customer relationships built on trust.

Nimble change: Our production: immediate adaptability as needed

Our production is highly automated. Nevertheless, we have designed our infrastructure to be so flexible that we can immediately switch to revision mode if you need variants, a design has been modified, or fluctuations need to be handled.No matter what change of course might present itself, we’ll find the way.

The flood of organizational tasks is rising for every machines and systems manufacturer. We take the stress off your team – let us carry some of the load. A prominent example: delivery capability. Delivery even when a customer is in a rush.We keep materials availability high and personnel capacities at the ready. And we keep track of changing prices of materials. We do everything we can to make sure we fulfill requests even with short delivery times.

Logistics that support your assembly

Which mode do you prefer: Just-in-time or just-in-sequence? We adapt our logistics processes to your production and coordinate everything precisely with you. At WASSERMANN, the delivery agreement includes not only the deadline, but also the correct composition of the batch and pre-packaging. As a result, there’s a smooth transition between logistics and assembly.As a supplier to major OEMs, though, not only does our industrial production have to fit; our processes and flexibility must also match our customers’ working methods.

• We have a flexible range of processes that we can tailor to the customer’s needs so that they can be seamlessly integrated into the customer’s series processes. This applies to QA, logistics, planning, and more. One result is that we are regularly invited to supplier conferences, and customers present us as a model supplier.
• Our series customers don’t have to rely on us blindly – we can let them know the status of a 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 can solve a technical problem. Standardization reduces costs and simplifies processes. But “standard” also means keeping the standard high. When we make standard parts, we do it with the same precision and reliability as for custom-made products or special parts in small production runs.

Special solutions for your machines

Challenges in machine and plant construction often can’t be met with standardized parts and assemblies. In these cases, WASSERMANN creates special solutions, both for components and for ready-to-install assemblies.

With our modular system, we can build almost anything

In both cases, our modular system is the ideal starting point, because it gives you many parts and countless combination options. This means we can 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.

Misunderstandings can lead to mistakes. That applies to product development, too. Open communication from the start is the best insurance against misunderstandings. That’s why many of our customers involve us at an early stage of development.From the start, our engineering team communicates with the customer’s developers. This means we can accompany you at every step. Time and again, our team has come up with a completely different approach that proves to be the right solution when put to the test. Usually, components and assemblies become more efficient or less expensive.We also focus on production-oriented design, because production can’t be allowed to become a cost trap at a later stage. Here 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 high level of automation. Nevertheless, we can react flexibly, because while our processes are consistent, they are not set in stone. We keep a relaxed approach to

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

When something changes, we accept it and implement it. Quickly and reliably.

We are experienced in providing additional services relating to supplier management. We know how to make supplier qualification efficient despite ever-increasing requirements.When international delivery regulations require particular documents, we make them available. We are paying attention to the requirements for handling conflict minerals.REACH? Check. We also handle all customs requirements securely, and if you want to carry out a customer audit with us, we’re ready.All in all: Standards, rules, and regulations are there to be adhered to. And we do. That’s also part of our conception of quality.

Estimate today what will happen the day after tomorrow. We’ve internalized this idea and incorporated it in our actions.WASSERMANN regularly invests in new equipment, because we want to be able to offer our customers progress. New methods, cost-optimized production, new manufacturing concepts, faster throughput, even greater precision, new and sophisticated materials – we follow promising trends closely. We want to keep being who we are: a modern technology companyActing with foresight applies to procurement, too. We safeguard our customers’ procurement with proactive planning and analysis of requirements, scheduling periods, materials availability, and delivery times. This results in high transparency with regard to the upcoming production phases.

Every machining company has its own profile – including us. Above all, our profile describes what we do and how we do it. We’ve presented you with much information about us. And it also describes what we don’t do.We leave some things to partners, because they are better equipped to do them. We yield to other experts for the following requests:

• 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.
