About IBOR AG
IBOR AG in Ettiswil is a Swiss supplier with core competence in CNC milling up to a working envelope of X 6'000 / Y 4'000 mm. Its 40-strong team of trained polymechanics produces ready-to-install components, large plates and flat parts, complex 5-axis parts as well as lightweight parts made of aluminium, steel, stainless steel and non-ferrous metals. The machine fleet includes 5-axis machining centres (including FPT DINOX 350 IAT, MATEC 30HV-5METER, REIDEN RX12), 4-axis machining centres with swivel bridges up to 1'300 mm part length, 3-axis centres and an end-machining machine (EBZ) for end machining of extra-long parts with no length limit. Every employee takes responsibility for the entire production process from programming to quality control including 3D metrology. Express orders are part of daily business; enquiries are answered within 24 hours. Customers come from automation, energy and environment, aerospace, medical technology, automotive, mechanical and metal engineering, shipbuilding, rail transport and the semiconductor industry. The company is ISO 9001 certified and actively trains polymechanics.
