ZIMMERMANN MILLING SOLUTIONS
FOR THE AUTOMOTIVE INDUЅТRY.
BORN with THE ZIMMERMANN DNA. A MACHINE
IN THE IMAGE OF THE PEOPLE WHO MADE IT.
Míllíng machines built wíth pioneeríng technology. And whose most
ímportant component ís dedícatíon. People who work tirelessly to
achíeve outstandíng precísíon. That ís the essence of the Zímmermann
DNA. Because as a leader offering top-quality, high-performance portal
milling machines and horizontal machíníng centers Made ìn Germany ,
the most vital elements are confídence and relíability. And this applíes to
the people just as much as it does to the machines. It is the ambítíon that
burns in every member of our workforce and ín every síngle component of
our machines. And it inspíres the promíse that we make to our customers:
A Zimmermann will never let you down.
TYPICAL ZIMMERMANN: PRECISE DOWN TO THE
LAST DETAIL.
At Zímmermann, we share your passíon for outstandíng precision
and total attention to detail. With milling solutíons that mobílíze the
automotíve industry - from model makíng and mold construction,
through vehicle desígn and on to the production of jigs and gages.
In cooperation with you, we develop indivídual system concepts that surpass
the requirements for your applícatíon. Because when it comes to the effícíent
ímplementatíon of the overall process and the best possible surface quality
for the fíníshed product, our tolerances are practically zero. lust like those
