This is who we are
Maschinenbau Pril GmbH in Lähden is a specialized manufacturing company for mechanical engineering and steel construction and part of the Pril Group, which has been producing attachments for construction machinery since the mid-1980s. The company processes fine-grained and highly wear-resistant steels such as Hardox 400/500 and S960QL as well as structural steel S235 in sheet thicknesses from 2 to 150 mm and manufactures large components weighing up to 20 tonnes. The range of services includes consulting and 3-D-supported design, preparation, welding, machining with precision down to 0.001 mm, hydraulics with in-house test benches, coating according to color specifications, as well as assembly, packaging and delivery of complete components. On more than 4,400 sqm of hall space, of which 2,600 sqm is a production hall, around 35 experienced employees work with modern equipment such as a machining center with rotary-shift table. Customers come primarily from mechanical engineering, steel construction and the construction machinery industry.
