About DOH
DOH – Drahtwerk Oberndorfer Hütte Peter Weil GmbH & Co. KG, based in Solms-Oberndorf in Hesse, is a manufacturer specializing in wire belt conveyor belts. Founded in 1902 as a wire mill, the company produces custom wire conveyor belts, link belts and mesh belts as well as special belt constructions for applications in which rubber, textile or plastic belts cannot be used. The product range includes flat wire and round wire link belts, wire mesh belts, rod mesh belts, wire eyelet link belts, cross-rod belts, multiple spiral belts, honeycomb belts, rolled baking belts and curve-capable conveyor belts with 90- or 180-degree deflection. Production is carried out in belt widths of up to 5,500 mm and virtually unlimited length, using stainless, acid-resistant and heat-resistant steels as well as galvanized and bright steel. In addition to manufacturing, DOH offers consulting and planning support, contract wire bending, oil removal of belts, installation and assembly, and after-sales service. Customers come, among others, from the food, glass, ceramics, solar, automotive supply and metallurgical industries, as well as from heat treatment shops, forging operations and filtration technology. From its location in central Hesse, the company supplies customers in Germany and worldwide.
