About Apparatebau für das graphische Gewerbe GmbH
Apparatebau für das graphische Gewerbe GmbH was founded in 1967 in Geretsried and has since manufactured punching and cutting tools as well as special machines for the graphic industry. Its range of services includes wire EDM on CNC-controlled machines with automatic threading, where wire diameters down to 0.1 mm also make the smallest contours possible. In addition, the company offers profile grinding, surface grinding (on Jung machines with accuracies of 0.003 mm), cylindrical grinding, 5-axis milling and turning. The company also manufactures precision mechanical parts to customer specifications as well as Wire-O tools and register cutters, and takes on contract manufacturing orders. Customers come primarily from the graphic industry, toolmaking and mechanical engineering in Bavaria and throughout Germany. The company combines a modern machine fleet with careful craftsmanship and advises customers on manufacturing processes such as EDM and grinding.
