About ibb Zerspanungstechnik
ibb Zerspanungstechnik GmbH is a family-owned company founded in 1985 in the Cologne/Bergisch Gladbach area. Originally started as a trading company and service provider, the company has been manufacturing milling cutters and drills as cutting tools since 1992. The product range includes end mills from 0.3 to 40 millimeters in diameter, dental instruments, OEM products as well as special tools, which are also produced in small series. Customers include the automotive industry, aerospace, mechanical engineering, tool and mold making, and dental technology, which is supplied with precision tools in the micrometer range – in particular milling tools for cobalt-chromium and grinding pins for glass ceramic. In addition to manufacturing, ibb offers process optimization, portfolio analysis, project design and development tasks with its own test environments. Since 2012, Tobias Zikoll has led the company in the second generation; deliveries are made worldwide.
