About Zindel Maschinenbau
Zindel GmbH & Co. KG is a mechanical engineering company based in Freigericht-Somborn (Hesse). As a contract manufacturer, the company produces custom-made parts, small series and complete assemblies to customer drawings or datasets for SMEs and large corporations. The value chain covers development and design, CNC milling on 3-, 4- and 5-axis machines, CNC turning as well as die-sinking, small-hole and wire EDM, used where mechanical machining reaches its limits. Complex workpieces are milled from solid as well as castings and formed parts. In addition to machining, toolmaking is a core area of the company. Production is carried out with modern CNC technology and CAM software; more than 2000 projects have been realized to date.
