About Hutzel DrehTech
Hutzel DrehTech GmbH, based in Steinenbronn near Stuttgart, manufactures fully machined, highly complex precision parts, medical devices and instruments for a variety of industries. The range of services spans consulting, design and development through to in-house production. Ready-to-assemble turned parts with 1 to 200 mm diameter and lengths up to approx. 1,000 mm are manufactured from all machinable materials, including titanium, tantalum and zirconium. In addition to machining, grinding, lapping, honing, deep hole drilling, assembly, sandblasting and superfinishing are carried out in-house. Production ranges from prototypes and small batch sizes to mass production. Hutzel DrehTech GmbH is a partner and supplier to the HumanTech Group, which manufactures implants and instruments for spinal and dental surgery. The company is part of the family-owned Hutzel-Technics Group with manufacturing sites in Steinenbronn, Liebstadt (Hutzel-Seidewitztal GmbH) and Klášterec nad Ohří (Hutz-EL s. r. o., Czech Republic).
