About HERO
HERO GmbH was founded in 1987 in Sigmaringendorf-Laucherthal and began as a supplier of pneumatic and hydraulic components. Today the company is a provider of automation technology that develops, designs and manufactures special-purpose machinery and complete automation solutions – from small solutions to complex systems with multiple stations. The portfolio includes assembly machines, welding machines, inspection and testing systems, band cutting machines for ultra-thin foils made of metal and plastic, as well as jig and fixture construction (bending, punching, welding, measuring and assembly fixtures). In addition, HERO offers control technology including control cabinet construction, PLC programming, visualization and pneumatic control systems, robotics with conventional and collaborative robots, and retrofit modernization of legacy systems. In CNC contract manufacturing, the company produces prototype parts, individual parts and small series using CNC milling and CNC turning with a modern machine fleet, including warehousing and call-off orders (just in time). The offering is rounded out by painting and coating technology (airless and AirCombi devices, Hübner house brand), motion technology based on pneumatics, hydraulics and electrics, as well as service, maintenance and repair, also for machinery and equipment from other manufacturers. Customers come from the crafts and industry sectors, including wood, plastics and metal processing, textile machinery manufacturing and
