About WFN AG
Werkzeug- und Feinmechanik WFN AG, headquartered in Neu St. Johann (Canton St. Gallen), was founded in 1983 and specializes in tool and die construction, form building, and precision mechanics. The company manufactures complex, highly precise individual parts and small series, as well as technically demanding injection molding and die casting tools. In addition to its main business, WFN AG performs contract work on all its own machines and equipment, including CNC machining centers, deep hole drilling, CNC sink erosion, wire erosion, and work on keyway stretch machines. A special feature is a low-pressure casting process for eutectic alloys. The range of services includes customized design and development, consulting and controlling, up to finished production. Additionally, there are proprietary products such as waterproof partial devices for EDM machines and sinus wave converters.
