Precision turned parts from Ulm – a partner to industry for decades
Brehm Präzisionstechnik GmbH & Co. KG manufactures assembly-ready precision turned parts in Ulm with diameters from 3 mm to 65 mm according to customer drawings. High-volume series are produced on more than 90 multi-spindle automatic lathes up to 32 mm diameter; the machine fleet also includes CNC machining and rotary transfer machines as well as machine tools for turning, multi-axis turning, drilling, reaming, threading, thread rolling, milling, grinding, honing, lapping and brushing. Materials machined include free-cutting, case-hardening, structural and heat-treatable steels, stainless and acid-resistant steels, high-speed steels, nickel, titanium, brass, copper, bronze, nickel silver and aluminium. In addition, heat treatments (including case hardening, Tenifer treatment, protective-gas hardening and induction hardening, tempering, nitrocarburizing, nitriding, cryogenic treatment) and surface treatments (galvanizing, nickel plating, chrome plating, silver plating, phosphating, blackening, electroless nickel plating, anodizing, hard coating) are offered. Alongside parts manufacturing, the company, with over 300 employees, supplies complete assemblies that, upon request, are function-tested, including in-house construction of assembly and testing equipment. Customers come from the automotive industry, mechanical and plant engineering, pneumatics and hydraulics, control and regulation technology, precision engineering, and aerospace.
