Functionality in sheet metal since 1856
HN Kernstützen Metallwaren GmbH is a medium-sized family company based in Steinbach-Hallenberg in Thuringia, active in metal and sheet metal processing since 1856. Its core competence is the manufacture of stamped and formed parts: on modern stamping presses with progressive die tools up to 160 tons of stamping force, parts are produced from sheet thicknesses of 0.2 to 5 mm. Materials processed include steels of various grades, spring steels, stainless steels as well as non-ferrous metals such as copper, brass, aluminium and bronze. The range of services includes bending on insertion and press brakes, Bihler technology for stamped and bent parts in small, medium and large series, thread processing, resistance welding, riveting, assembly of complete assemblies as well as aluminium profile processing with cutting, punching and connectors. In addition, the company offers technical consulting, design engineering and toolmaking from new construction to maintenance. Customers come from the automotive and electronics industries, device and medical technology, the furniture industry and photovoltaics.
