About Wilhelm Kissendorfer
Wilhelm Kissendorfer OHG is a Munich-based company founded in 1931 in the metal processing industry, specializing in precision tool construction and special machine engineering. The manufacturing spectrum includes CNC milling (3 and 5-axis), CNC turning, surface and profile grinding, cylindrical grinding, jig boring, and coordinate grinding, as well as wire and sinker electro-discharging. All types of steel (low- and high-alloy, powder metallurgy), stainless steel, hard metal, titanium, aluminum alloys, and various plastics are processed. Products range from individual parts and prototypes to small series production up to complete assemblies and special machines. Customers include companies from the automotive sector (Daimler, BMW), aerospace (MT Aerospace, Eurocopter, MTU), medical and diagnostics (Roche), mechanical engineering, and banking and security technology (Giesecke & Devrient). Production takes place at the main headquarters on Stäblistraße in Munich with around 50 employees; quality assurance is performed in the µm range using 3D coordinate measurement technology in climate-controlled rooms.
