About BOHRMA
BOHRMA Maschinenbau Martin Himmelmann is a mechanical engineering company in Fulda that manufactures components for drilling systems used in special geotechnical engineering, including drill bits and drill rods for earthworks and tunneling. The service portfolio includes 5-axis CNC milling, CNC turning, CNC oxy-fuel and plasma cutting, CNC sawing up to Ø 320 mm, deep-hole drilling of rotationally symmetric workpieces, friction welding with subsequent heat treatment of the weld seam, as well as welding, brazing and assembly services. In addition to contract manufacturing, the company develops and manufactures special components as a turn-key solution. At the Fulda site (Industriepark West), 40 employees work in two-shift operation. The management system is certified to DIN EN ISO 9001; an energy audit was carried out in 2021. The company delivers nationally and internationally.
