About Laube + Co. AG
Laube + Co. AG is a family-owned company headquartered in Mellikon in the canton of Aargau, specialising in sheet metal working and apparatus and vessel construction. With over 38 years of company history and around 30 employees, the company manufactures custom components and complete apparatuses for customers from mechanical engineering, apparatus construction, metal processing and lighting construction. In its own cutting center, punching, laser cutting, tube laser cutting and waterjet cutting are used in combination; waterjet cutting is possible up to a material thickness of 200 mm. Two 7-axis press brakes with 2200 kN of pressing force allow bending of sheet metal parts up to a length of 3220 mm. The value chain is complemented by certified welding (TIG/MIG/MAG), mechanical machining, trowalising, additive manufacturing, and assembly including LED and special luminaire construction as well as final assembly.
