About Waiwad GmbH
Waiwad GmbH is a mechanical engineering company based in Hardthausen am Kocher in the Heilbronn district and has been in existence since 1993. Its service portfolio covers design, special machine construction, jig and fixture construction (clamping, testing and assembly fixtures), work equipment construction, single-part manufacturing and safety engineering. In single-part manufacturing, components are produced according to drawing, sample or CAD data: CNC milling, CNC turning and conventional machining, MAG and TIG welding of aluminium, steel and stainless steel, cutting processes such as laser cutting, waterjet and flame cutting as well as 3D printing. In addition, the company offers surface treatments (blasting, grinding, painting, burnishing, galvanizing) and heat treatments (nitriding, case hardening, vacuum hardening). Materials processed include steel, stainless steel, non-ferrous metals and plastics. Customers come from industry, automotive, plant engineering and special machine construction; the delivery area extends up to 150 km, including Stuttgart, Mannheim, Ulm and Würzburg. According to company information, more than 6,000 projects have been completed.
