About HoPa Maschinenbau
Maschinenbau Thomas Hofmann GmbH (HoPa Maschinenbau GmbH) is a mechanical engineering company founded in 1995 and based in Drebach in the Erzgebirge region. The company manufactures machines for processing wood, plastics and metal, including disc sanders, belt sanders, combined disc and belt sanders, vertical belt sanders and scroll saws. For sanding aluminium and magnesium, machines in explosion-proof design (ATEX) are offered. In addition, the company provides contract manufacturing of CNC-milled parts according to drawings and design specifications on two CNC machining centres; metals, light metals, plastics and castings are machined. The machines can be equipped on customer request with special paint finishes, special voltages and individual extras. Customers come from industries such as automotive, aerospace, energy generation, rail transport, the furniture industry and instrument making; according to the website, more than 50 countries are supplied with more than 300 customers.
