About ANDERS Sondermaschinen
ANDERS Sondermaschinen GmbH is a special machinery construction company founded in 1994 and headquartered in Donnersdorf in Lower Franconia. The company develops and manufactures custom special machines ranging from small fixtures and stand-alone machines to complete production systems. The service portfolio includes special assembly machines (including the LBB assembly machine) for semi- and fully automated assembly, joining/press-fitting and screwdriving, special automation systems for feeding, sorting, handling, robotics and machine linking, as well as special measuring machines for tactile, optical and camera-based measurements down to the 1/10-µm range. The offering is complemented by special testing machines for thread, endurance, crack and 100% OK/NOK inspection, as well as conversion, optimization, commissioning, maintenance and training of existing systems. Customers come from the automotive industry, aerospace, electronics manufacturing, medical technology, and the packaging and food industries; the systems operate throughout Europe and in Canada. The company supplies small customers as well as large industry, with order sizes ranging from €1,000 to €1.3 million.

Processes and Technologies
Special machinery construction
From small fixtures and stand-alone machines to production systems – all from a single source.
Special assembly machines
Semi- and fully automated assembly of assemblies, assembly/disassembly, controlled joining/press-fitting and screwdriving, among others with the LBB assembly machine.
Special automation
Feeding and sorting, joining and separating, marking, joining and bonding, handling and robotics tasks as well as linking of multiple machines.
Special measuring machines
Tactile, optical and camera-based measurement of dimensions, distances, force, travel, friction torque, torque and play, highly accurate down to the 1/10-µm range.
Special testing machines
Thread, endurance, optical, completeness and crack testing of metal parts as well as 100% OK/NOK inspection.
Conversion and optimization
Economical modification, expansion and modernization of systems already in operation instead of new construction.
