About durcrete
durcrete GmbH, based in Limburg an der Lahn, specializes in machine components made of inorganic, cement-bound mineral cast (UHPC). The company supports customers from design and computational engineering (FEA: deformations, stresses, natural frequencies, thermal behavior, transport anchors) through mold making and the casting process to the delivery of precision-machined and painted frame components such as machine beds, machine stands, test frames and test tables. As the manufacturer of the UHPC casting compound durfill, durcrete supplies welding shops, foundries, precision machining companies and machine manufacturers worldwide with material for filling cast iron or steel welded constructions. On behalf of Dyckerhoff GmbH, durcrete provides application consulting for the special binder Nanodur® and plans production facilities for UHPC components. Further fields of activity include machine foundations made of precast elements as well as sourcing European companies for complete constructions including steel fabrication, filling, precision machining and painting. References exist from Germany to China, including Homag, fpt, OPV and Horiba. The company operates exclusively in the B2B sector.
