About Jouhsen-bündgens
Jouhsen-bündgens Maschinenbau GmbH, based in Stolberg (Rhineland), develops and manufactures special machines and systems for processing wire and tube with diameters from 0.02 mm to 16 mm and cut lengths from 2 mm to 6,000 mm. The portfolio includes straightening and cutting machines (rotary straightening), cold forming machines, roll forming machines, end working machines, tip grinding machines and resistance welding machines, complemented by feeding, inspection and special machine technology as well as automation and integration into process lines. A historically grown second business unit is GMP- and FDA-compliant filling systems for infusion bags and bottles (20 to 5,000 ml) for the pharmaceutical industry. Materials processed include steel, non-ferrous metals, precious metals and special materials such as tungsten, molybdenum and tantalum; plastic and glass containers in the pharmaceutical sector. Customers come from industries such as medical technology, pharmaceuticals, automotive supply, electrical engineering, dental technology, the watch and chain industry through to the semiconductor industry. The company manufactures with a high level of in-house production depth in Stolberg and supports systems on all continents; a US subsidiary in Atlanta handles sales and customer service for North America.
