About Broßmann Konstruktionen
Broßmann Konstruktionen is an engineering service provider based in Baindt, Baden-Württemberg, which has been providing design services for the automotive industry since 1992. Its range of services covers process planning, simulation and tool surface creation as well as the tool design of complex body-in-white parts in the field of non-cutting sheet-metal forming – from prototype, progressive die, transfer to stage and line tools. In addition, the company designs foundry models with core boxes, thermoforming and press tools for plastics, as well as equipment for container and automation technology. CAD software Catia V5 and Siemens NX as well as the simulation tools Autoform and LS-Dyna are used. Customers are automotive manufacturers and their suppliers, with whom the company collaborates from feasibility studies through to finished designs.
