About DF Werkzeugservice GmbH
DF Werkzeugservice GmbH is a company for jig and special-purpose machinery construction based in Baindt in the district of Ravensburg. Its service portfolio covers the entire value chain: concept development and planning, design using CAD systems including manufacturing drawings, sheet metal developments and 3D models, manufacturing, assembly, documentation as well as maintenance and servicing throughout the entire plant life cycle. In the in-house manufacturing department, welded constructions such as welded assemblies made from segmented helix segments are produced, along with CNC turned and milled parts; in addition, components are manufactured using the FDM 3D printing process from plastics such as ABS, PA, PC and TPU. Assembly comprises mechanical construction, the installation of pneumatic and hydraulic components as well as electrical wiring. Key customer sectors include the automotive industry (body-in-white), the paper industry, and mechanical and plant engineering. Founded in 2016 as a sole proprietorship, the company was converted into a GmbH in 2024 with the two managing directors Daniel Futterer and Dominik Rankel.
