With modern machinery and automation technologies, we manufacture high precision parts efficiently and to a consistently high level of quality. We use systems from renowned manufacturers such as DMG Mori, GROB and Mitsubishi – ideal for machining thin-walled, deformation-sensitive parts. Through the selective use of robotics and pallet storages, we increase process reliability, reduce costs and maximize efficiency. What sets SCHAEFER apart is the combination of manufacturing know-how, automation expertise and precision craftsmanship.
With state-of-the-art machinery, digitally connected processes and decades of experience, we manufacture precise individual parts and small batches – efficiently, reliably and to the highest quality standards. We rely on fully connected order processing and production planning/control with modern ERP and manufacturing execution systems for fast processing and high delivery capability.
We process a wide range of metals, plastics and special materials – from aluminum and stainless steel to titanium, ceramics and high-performance plastics. Our material expertise is the basis for durable and high-precision components for the most demanding applications.
In addition to the processing of conventional materials, SCHAEFER also offers the processing of various ceramics and quartz glass. These materials are playing an increasingly important role in the semiconductor industry in particular due to their ESD conductivity. We have ultrasonic production capacities and surface finishing with diamond lapping machines for that purpose. CNC machining of ceramics is particularly complex, as the material is hard, brittle and temperature-sensitive. Even the smallest defects can lead to cracks or breakage, which requires maximum precision. Thanks to our specialized machines and processes as well as our skilled employees, we can ensure economical and damage-free machining.
