Machine overview

WF Machinery: Metal spinning & flow forming

What matters to us

Be it in the automotive industry, in drive technology, in aerospace or in the production of gas tanks – a large number of branches today are certainly in need of the chipless forming of metal parts. In a world which is continuously and quickly developing, at the same time the need for quality, sustainability and durability is growing. New challenges have to be met with lighter products, more powerful components and stronger capacities.

In order to assist our customers in meeting these challenges there have to be trust and good cooperation.

Based on our own intensive research and development activities, WF Machinery, together with its parent company WF Maschinenbau in Germany and WF China wants to continually set new standards in the fields of metal spinning and flow forming and we establish these new technologies on new markets untapped so far. One step ahead of our competitors, one step closer to our customers. Today and in future.

WF Machinery meets expectations

Customer satisfaction

A customer is satisfied when we meet his expectations. With great pride we can look at a long list of satisfied customers. The first to be mentioned is a customer from Germany to whom we built 4 machines annually in average and who can meanwhile call more than 100 WF machines – made in Germany – his own. Another is the Canadian customer who currently already has produced more than 25,000,000 starter ring gears on his 15 WF machines. And with other customers we mutually celebrate the 30th anniversary as regular customers. These and many more success stories prove the satisfaction of our customers.
