About KBM Maschinenbau
KBM Maschinenbau GmbH, based in Allendorf/Eder, develops and manufactures customer-specific machines and systems for metalworking, in particular belt grinding machines in single- and dual-belt versions, wide belt grinding machines, edge grinding and edge deburring machines, brushing machines as well as film coating systems and laminating machines. In addition, the company builds zinc die-cast sorting systems, conveying technology, processing lines and special machines for surface treatment and surface protection. The offering is complemented by electrical and control engineering, data and network technology, assembly services, and a spare parts and repair service that also ensures the supply for the approximately 22,000 Johannsen grinding machines produced to date. Originally the focus was on woodworking, but the focus has since shifted to metal surfaces. Customers include, among others, the trade in stainless steel products, surface technology, the zinc die-casting industry, plastics and sheet metal processing, the furniture and wood industries, mechanical and apparatus engineering, and the pharmaceutical industry. Development and production take place at the company headquarters in Allendorf/Eder.
