More than the inventor of the clamping head
Typically Swabian? We are! And yet not at all. Because if you think you're dealing with a dusty family business from the provinces, you're quite wrong. Well, we started out in a garage over 70 years ago, but so did Apple. And what has it become? A success story! That's how it is with visions, you have to live them. No wonder our first invention caused a sensation right away: the clamping head was the revolution. And the competition has not been stingy with copies over the last four decades. But none of them was as good as the original.

The development of our company

What sets us apart from other companies? It is our knowledge of how to bundle individual services into system services, bring them to the market in a benefit-oriented manner and inspire customers with them. What connects us with our customers is not only the supply of the most innovative precision tools, but also the common claim to develop meaningful solutions - now and in the future.
Since our founding in 1920 in Lauf an der Pegnitz and the production of the first threading tools, we have been committed to precision and innovation. For 100 years, EMUGE-FRANKEN has consistently offered technological milestones with its EMUGE and FRANKEN product brands in threading, drilling, testing, clamping and milling technology. To date, a variety of products and services have been created that save time and money - to the benefit of our customers. We continue this orientation across generations.

With Güthle, swift die changes always run smoothly. We offer standard components or customised solutions: Fast, safe, clean - and from a single source - since 1925.
There is no such thing as impossible! Nearly 90 years after our founding, one of our main beliefs is still that even the most demanding tasks can be solved. Technical manoeuvrability in tight spaces is the strength of our bestselling DILOS die change transporter. Intellectual manoeuvrability is a virtue anchored in the minds of our Güthle workforce. This virtue allows us to respond swiftly, in a customer-oriented manner, to a dynamic market with ever-changing conditions and requirements.

Clamping, changing, transporting – we set the tone with this triad when it comes to swift die changings, and our rollers still play the leading role. Our ROLLBLOC system makes it possible to move extremely heavy dies as if by magic and to precisely position them for installation. The T-groove designed ball bars make even the heaviest dies look weightless. This constantly evolving technology still forms the core of our product range.
Throughout the development of the ROLLBLOC line, we at Güthle have been in constant dialogue with our customers and have expanded our range to meet customer requirements. Our complex DILOS systems were inspired by customer products and concepts to enable the automated die change of heavy-duty press dies, pursuant to individual requirements and specifications.
Güthle products leave no question unanswered when it die comes to clamping, changing, and transporting.

TÜNKERS is a German family-owned company that originated in the field of mechanical engineering and has developed into a global player for automation technology with a great deal of commitment. Since we invent, design, produce and distribute all these products ourselves, we are also one hundred percent behind them. In contrast to a pure dealer company, we at TÜNKERS attach great importance to establishing long-term and successful partnerships with our customers. True to our motto "Inventiveness as standard", we therefore also proactively and together with our customers constantly develop new, innovative solutions that convince through their efficiency and reliability.

Since 1900 the family owned HEICO group has offered its customers reliable and high-quality solutions in the field of fastening technology and can thus draw on extensive technical know-how.
Starting with the production and distribution of nails, mainly for the furniture industry, the product portfolio of HEICO has continuously expanded over the years. At the beginning of the 1990s, HEICO started production of customer-specific, drawing-related cold forged parts. These parts are mainly distributed to the automotive industry with customers including Audi, VW and BMW. With management of the company passing to the fourth generation of the family in 2006 the product range was significantly enhanced again by the HEICO-LOCK® product group and the HEICO-TEC® Tension Nut.
The highest degree of vertical integration through in-house tool and machine construction, in-house heat treatments and surface refinements, as well as a continuous process control system, have always characterized the quality philosophy of the HEICO group.
