About Weso Werkzeugbau
Weso Werkzeugbau GmbH from Leopoldshöhe-Asemissen in East Westphalia has been manufacturing tools for sheet metal processing since 1903. The portfolio includes press brake tools for all common press systems (including Amada, Bystronic, Trumpf, EHT, LVD, Wila), special tools such as bridge tools, double-hem tools, beading tools, trapezoid and Z-bending tools, bending tools for swivel bending (RAS, Fasti, Schröder), industrial knives as well as punching and forming tools for cold and hot forming. In addition to toolmaking, the company offers services such as modification of press brake tools, regrinding service, test bends, surface treatment and tool design with CAD simulation. Contract manufacturing services include CNC milling, CNC grinding, wire EDM and laser hardening. Materials include steel, stainless steel, aluminium, brass, copper, plastics, carbide and powder metallurgical steels. All production is carried out entirely in-house in Germany.
