About ZORN Maschinenbau
ZORN Maschinenbau GmbH, headquartered in Stockach on Lake Constance, specialises in special machinery, micro-automation and micro-machining. The company develops and manufactures custom special machinery, from small units for micro applications to robot-controlled production lines. Core areas include micro-assembly and micro-automation with processes such as pressing, riveting, screwdriving, bending, soldering, ultrasonic, laser and resistance welding, as well as cleanroom assembly cells with laminar-flow boxes. In the field of micro-machining, the company offers the ZORN microone, a compact 5-axis precision machining centre for milling, drilling and grinding of miniature parts. Further business areas include wire processing with cutting, straightening and bending of wires with diameters from 0.02 to 0.8 mm, as well as optical testing and inspection machines. The company can look back on almost 40 years of experience in special machinery and serves industries such as fine mechanics, microtechnology, the glass and wire processing industry, and automation technology.
