Top Quality In Series Production – Hirschvogel Komponenten
Since 1989, Hirschvogel has been offering its customers added value through the machining of forged parts. These machined components were so well received that Hirschvogel Komponenten GmbH was founded in 1999 and entered the commercial register in 2000. Since then, this machining plant in Schongau has been carrying out precision work in the micrometer range.
What began with a 4,000 m2 hall and around 80 employees has now grown into a state-of-the-art plant spanning 39,000 m2, with ten production halls and around 800 employees. The product range extends from balancer shafts and fuel distribution rails to rotor shafts for electric motors. In addition to machining, a number of other processes are employed, such as various welding, deburring, coating, and assembly operations, as well as heat treatment.
The longstanding experience of the employees, the breadth of process engineering expertise, and the associated scope for offering combined solutions ensure top quality in series production, even and especially for complex components. Hirschvogel Komponenten GmbH is equally adept at large-series production on highly automated, fully integrated production lines as it is at flexible small-batch or prototype production.
Maximum efficiency and transparency – most of the machined products have data matrix codes (DMC) as standard – are achieved through value stream planning, stable and reliable manufacturing processes, automatic feedback control in the systems, and a smart factory concept. The smart factory concept, with its digital methods and increasing use of AI, aims to continuously optimize processes and make work easier for employees. All of this together ensures reliable customer supply.
There is good reason for our first-class development and production performance: Hirschvogel Komponenten GmbH is our “lead plant for machining” and, with its own machine and plant construction capacities, it is also the innovation driver for production technology within the Hirschvogel Group.
