About Altmärkischer Werkzeugbau GmbH
The Altmärkischer Werkzeugbau GmbH in Salzwedel manufactures parts as a contract manufacturer using CNC machining, including 5-axis milling, turning, wire EDM and surface grinding with tolerances in the hundredth-of-a-millimeter range. The company machines special alloys such as nickel-based Alloy C-276 (2.4819) and powder-metallurgical steels such as Vanadis 8. In addition to contract manufacturing, AWB offers tool engineering, die/mold making, plant engineering, special machine engineering and fixture/jig construction, based on in-house designs or customer data. Design and engineering are performed in-house. The machine park comprises 5-axis machining centers from DMG MORI (DMU 50, DMU 50 T, DMU 100 T, DMF 260), NEF 400 and NEF 600 lathes, a FI 440 SLP wire EDM machine, an FS 60 surface grinding machine as well as various conventional machines. Inspection is carried out on a Zeiss Contura G2 3D coordinate measuring machine. The company is located at Bergener Straße 1 in Salzwedel (29410).
