The Ramp-Up Factory enables small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) to forego high investment sums with their rental machines and still use the latest state of the art, drive innovations and conduct research in the field of e-mobility, for example.
The goal of our consulting is the successful integration of production engineering solutions and the reduction of production costs in your company. From the sketched idea until the functional product, we undertake services in the research and development area with a focus on vehicle production together with our partners. However, our production engineering know-how is also useful for customers outside the automotive industry.
Our consulting services are divided into three main areas – process development, technological production planning and sustainable production. In addition, individual topics are also addressed.
Our development team and technical staff are at your disposal with our manufacturing experience. Working in partnership, we look forward to designing tomorrow’s products with you.
Welding process development:
In accordance with customer requirements, we carry out process developments for laser welding, CMT welding and WPS welding
Fixture construction / joining and fixture technology:
We design jigs and fixtures, manufacture the individual elements and assemble the assembly, including measurement and adjustment.
Small batch production:
With an extensive range of machinery from machining to 3D printing, we can manufacture a variety of components from common materials in small batches
Vehicle development requires a high level of design know-how that goes far beyond conventional methods. With a focus on manufacturing and assembly suitability, circular economy, homologation and reliability, we develop innovative mobility and production concepts as an experienced and agile engineering team (references), implement them prototypically and enable the systemic validation of these concepts in a short time. We bring research and theory into the practice of your company and accompany you from the idea to the tangible realization.
