History
- 1882
Bernhard Hiltmann founds a specialist factory for cutting and punching tools in Aue – the oldest known company in this industry still active in the market today.
- 2016
AWEBA and WVL become part of ANDRITZ Schuler GmbH, the market leader in forming technology; complex systems can thus be realized from a single source.
