About HOEDEC AG
HOEDEC AG is a Swiss machining company based in Schleitheim SH. Since 1945, the company has manufactured turned parts and machined components for customers from the textile, electrical, printing, rail and machinery industries, as well as from conveyor technology, cleaning machine engineering and hydraulics. Production takes place on 700 m² of production floor with four CNC turn-mill machines and sliding-headstock lathes with bar feed up to 3 meters; short turning and long turning from bar as well as turn-milling of complex geometries are complemented by milling, sawing and vibratory finishing. Materials are metals, in particular brass, steel, stainless steel and non-ferrous metals. Surface treatment and heat treatment are carried out by long-standing partners, while assembly of complex assemblies, 100% inspections with sample inspection reports, and logistics and warehousing are performed in-house. The offering ranges from prototypes to small and large series. The company name combines the surname of founder Höhener with the French term décolletage (precision mechanics, automatic turning).
