Künkel-Wagner was established in 1907 as a mechanical engineering
company specialized in foundry technology. Since then, the headquarters
of the internationally operating company including administration, a
research and development division, fabrication division and project
management is situated in Alfeld (near Hanover).
Since the construction of the very first hand moulding machines in
the year 1911, Künkel-Wagner has considerably contributed to the
advancement of the foundry technology and has developed a wide range of
foundry equipment.
In the late 1950s, Künkel-Wagner was one of the first companies
offering fully automatic moulding plants. Innovative moulding techniques
were developed and the first alternatives to jolt-squeeze moulding
machines presented. It did not take long for us to realise the
importance and relevance of the quality of sand preparation plants for
the casting process and we consequently integrated moulding sand
preparation in our own production programme.
There were concepts for core sand separation as early as in the
1980s. Even today, we continue to meet this early set target and offer
solutions for improved moulding sand quality in moulding plant
technology, as well as in the field of sand processing. With the current
compaction procedure, complicated contours can be produced reliably and
with the necessary strength. Simple casting machines were already built
in early years to round off the production programme; they have
developed into our current automatic pouring equipment.
Throughout the production of the machines of the latest generation,
process relevant parameters are recorded and alarm messages, if
necessary, generated and archived.Thus, the required documentation for
the process control can be guaranteed. In combination with innovation,
expertise and experience, all products boast durability and high-quality
implementation.
“Made in Germany” is backed by long experience and deep know-how and
forms major guiding principles for the development of our company.

BIBRA is an experienced manufacturer and supplier of machineries and homemade toolings for the metal packaging industry worldwide. Our customers use our machines to produce all types of lids and ends for round and nonround products, deep drawn 2-pieces and DRD cans, AE-bottoms as well as twist off- and lug caps. Founded in 1889, BIBRA is headquartered in Barmstedt near Hamburg, Germany.
We can rely on more than 125 years of experience in the packaging industry and several decades of selling can making machines before manufacturing on our own for more than 50 years now. Our tooling department benefits of more than 40 years of experience in designing, constructing and manufacturing dies and toolings for all kind of cutting-, drawing- and forming dies.
In 1999 we moved our tooling department to Barmstedt and in 2009 our oven department followed. Herewith we finished an important mission to assemble all departments under one roof, shortening communication channels, transportation and improve quality control. With the decision to manufacture our own O-frame presses in 2011 we are able to build complete automatic sheet-feed press lines with its backend under one roof.
Our manufacturing range consists of all types of presses and back-end machines such as curlers, lining machines, industrial ovens, rollforming machines and bodymakers (lock-seaming). Additionally, BIBRA is one of the only companies being able to manufacture their own stamping dies and toolings for their machines and others.
Our international success is guaranteed by placing the customer in the centre of our attention. Combining quality, flexibility and individual focus is something that you deserve and that you can expect from us.
