Research & development

From the first technical feasibility study to the design of the manufacturing processes – we take a holistic approach with state-of-the-art technologies: Virtual production, simulations and FEM calculations mean that we can already optimize all processes for costs, weight and product carbon footprint in the engineering stage. This way, we set standards right from the very early stage.

Materials expertise

The selection of materials is key to meeting product requirements relating to efficiency, costs, weight and sustainability. Whether steel, aluminum, or stainless steel, we can process the materials for the optimum combination of stability and lightweight construction. The result is customized solutions for all requirements – including double steel and composite solutions.
Prototype production

Prototype production

Using cutting-edge design tools, rapid prototyping, 3D printing and special tryout presses, we create precise tryouts and customer prototypes. This creates the basis for developing the highest quality standards and considerably shortens the time required to start sustainable, efficient and innovative series production.

Assembly

State-of-the-art welding technologies such as lasers, MIG and CMT-MAG guarantee precise and resilient assembly methods. Along with bonding, gluing, innovative feeding technology and in-die welding, these allow us to create sustainable, efficient solutions for every application. We also realize significant savings potential by integrating additional operations into the forming and assembly process.

HOW WE PUSH BOUNDARIES

Our approach: going beyond boundaries.

Designing solutions, enabling innovations – we rely on the Industrial Internet of Things (IIOT) for maximum customer benefits. The PWO IIOT platform links the physical production networks such as machines, sensors and control systems with IT networks for data processing and data exchange. Best practice applications and use cases on this platform collect, share and scale application knowledge inside the PWO Group.

This integrated infrastructure reduces the time to market for new customer solutions. We create these in integrated teams of experts from development, toolmaking and production. Supported by our IIOT experts, all development steps are carried out digitally and continuously optimized – from design, through feasibility and risk analyses to the best possible integration and manufacturing concept in the predefined process and machine landscape of our respective sites. The real-time collection and analysis of the data on the production processes during the series’ lifetime ensures continuous improvement of manufacturing procedures and provides important feedback for developing the next generation of customer solutions.
