MORE THAN STANDARD We are a globally active provider of presses, press systems and services covering every aspect of the manufacturing of moulded parts. We have a high depth of production. We can produce most of our components and tools for our presses and press systems ourselves. We are able to control the quality of our individual components 100 % through our own machining production, the hydraulic section, the control cabinet construction as well as our hard and software branches. This makes it possible to refine each component to the highest degree. Leading edge through Knowhow Our profound know-how has its origin in the long tradition of the company WICKERT. We've been constructing hydraulic presses for more than 100 years. We follow the development for our sector and actively push the development with our innovations. Our courage and curiosity drive us to overcome any new technological challenge. The biggest factor of our know-how is our close collaboration with our customers. We have to incorporate every individual wish in cooperation with our customers, when constructing special machines. Every new order is a challenging and exciting project. That way we keep evolving constantly. We also deliver full systems, which means systems including one or more presses by WICKERT in addition to other components, such as guide systems, robot cells, cleaning and cooling systems. We take responsibility for safety matters and ensure coordination between the different components for such complex projects. The advantage for the customer is, that he only has one contact and does not have to coordinate between different suppliers. An experienced staff is the key to success Our experienced staff guarantees our success on a daily basis. The professional training and coaching is very important to us, as well as the personal development. Our experienced staff are versatile and flexible.
