About Us
ZIS Industrietechnik GmbH, based in Meerane, is a specialist for spatial cutting and welding tasks. In subcontracting, the company profiles hollow profiles and heavy plates, including weld joint preparation; complex 3D contours are created using milling, plasma, and oxy-fuel cutting based on proprietary CNC machines and programming software. ZIS manufactures three-dimensionally shaped truss nodes for spatial surface structures from heavy plates up to 400 mm thick, optionally with abrasive post-processing such as drilling, threading, and surface finishing. Customers throughout Europe come from steel construction, crane building, plant construction, mechanical engineering, offshore wind energy, agricultural machinery, and façade construction. In addition to subcontracting, ZIS develops and builds cutting and welding machines, turning units, rolling supports, mobile CNC equipment, and TCP calibration devices and software (RobCal, framecut, tubecut, domecut, platecut). With mobile CNC machines, on-site processing at construction sites or in steel construction companies is also possible.

Materials and Processes
Structural Steels / Heavy Plates
Main material for 3D truss nodes, heavy plate cutting, and serialized components up to 400 mm plate thickness.
Stainless Steels
For plasma cutting of components with increased corrosion requirements.
Oxy-fuel Cutting (Autogenous)
Cost-effective 3D separation process with a surface quality comparable to rough milling for heavy plates.
Plasma Cutting
