About WEBER
Hans Weber Maschinenfabrik GmbH is a medium-sized family-owned company headquartered in Kronach (Bavaria), with roots dating back to its founding in 1922. The company develops and manufactures extruders and extrusion lines for pipe extrusion, technical profile extrusion, window profile extrusion and pelletizing, as well as grinding machines for wood and metal including edge rounding and descaling. Through its WEBER automation division, the company offers industrial robotics and automation solutions, including loading cells for the precise loading and unloading of machines, as well as MES technologies. The portfolio is complemented by additive manufacturing (3D printing) and coating in the field of surface engineering. The machines are produced with a high level of in-house manufacturing depth and proprietary development entirely at the Kronach site on more than 50,000 m² of production space – 100 % Made in Germany – and are used worldwide in industries such as mechanical engineering, plastics processing, and the wood and lightweight construction industries.
