Schnelldorfer Maschinenbau GmbH
SchnelldorferNew on Amplifa
Focus on welding technology
Schnelldorfer Maschinenbau GmbH is a mechanical engineering company specialized in welding technology. The company develops and manufactures longitudinal seam and corner seam welding machines as well as matching welding clamping fixtures for sheet thicknesses from 0.20 to 15.00 mm and seam lengths from 10 to 4100 mm. The portfolio includes the Linear Neo, LINEARWELD X, LINEARWELD XL EXTL, Corner Neo and CORNER ONE series. The complete solutions cover engineering, tool design, welding process support as well as service with remote support, maintenance and spare parts supply from an inventory of more than 5,000 parts within 48 hours. The main materials welded are aluminum and steel using TIG, MIG and MAG processes. Customer industries include welding technology, sheet metal working and pipe manufacturing. Since August 2020, HEISS Maschinenbau GmbH has been part of the company.
