About UNISIG
UNISIG is a manufacturer of deep hole drilling machines headquartered in Menomonee Falls, Wisconsin (USA), with a German branch office in Bad Urach. The company offers the complete deep hole drilling system: machines for gundrilling and BTA deep hole drilling, drilling tools, automation, and 5-axis CNC milling and drilling centers. The product range extends from standard machines for holes under 1 mm in diameter in medical titanium components to machines that drill holes of 500 mm diameter and over 10 m depth in massive, high-strength forged parts. The portfolio is complemented by the UNISIG Tech Center with testing and prototyping services, training, and remote and on-site service. Customers include small contract shops as well as large OEMs from medical technology, aerospace, automotive, defense, energy, hydraulics, tool and die making, and Oil & Gas. UNISIG machines are installed in North and South America, Europe and Asia.
