About metzger engineering
metzger engineering is a sole proprietorship led by Dipl.-Ing. (FH) Andreas Metzger, based in Untermarchtal near Ehingen (Donau). The company offers engineering services for mechanical engineering: concept development, design using modern CAD software, design-accompanying calculation including finite element analyses, and project support from prototypes through to follow-up support. Design focuses lie in structural steelwork, welded constructions, sheet metal constructions as well as turned and milled parts, complemented by experience in automation technology. Work is performed from a home office or on-site at the customer. Industries include special machinery construction, automation technology, construction machinery, automotive and plant engineering; customers include Nordex, Optima, Michelin and Vincorion Power Systems.
