About FWM
Fuchs Werkzeug und Maschinenbau GmbH (FWM) from Lebach is a supplier and contract manufacturer for jig and fixture construction, CNC machining, steel construction and sheet metal fabrication. The company designs custom jigs and fixtures and special solutions in common CAD systems (Siemens NX, CATIA V5, CREO, INVENTOR) and manufactures them from steel construction through mechanical machining to surface treatment. The machine park comprises 5-axis CNC machining centers with pallet changer and automatic feeding, CNC lathes, waterjet cutting systems, fully automatic saws as well as laser and bending machines for sheet metal processing. In addition, contract manufacturing of complex welded parts made of steel, aluminum and fine-grained structural steels is offered as a certified welding specialist company for steel structures. The assembly of mechanics, electrics and pneumatics including documented metrological inspection completes the turn-key approach. Customers come, among others, from the automotive, agricultural technology, pharmaceutical and defense industries. On October 1, 2024, FWM took over the special machinery manufacturer Heinz und Feld GmbH in Saarwellingen.
