Mission: ExoMars

Thanks to our years of experience in the aerospace sector, we are honored to be part of a spectacular mission. The European Space Agency (ESA) is developing a rover that utilizes state-of-the-art technology to answer one of humanity’s most compelling questions: Was there, or is there currently, life on Mars?

The motor housing components we manufactured are an integral part of the sophisticated drive system designed to ensure the rover’s safe movement across the planet’s sandy surface.


Mercedes AMG Project One

To celebrate AMG's 50th anniversary, the Mercedes-AMG ONE was launched—a hypercar boasting over 1,000 hp and a top speed exceeding 350 km/h. Since March 2020, we have been the exclusive supplier of the motor housings for the compressor as part of this model's air conditioning system.

Only 275 units of this vehicle will be produced worldwide, each with a purchase price of 2.7 million euros.



Wendelstein 7-X

We are proud to contribute our expertise to this groundbreaking project as well. Wendelstein 7-X, a so-called stellarator, is an experimental facility for the electromagnetic confinement of plasma. Inside this machine, ionized hydrogen flows at temperatures reaching up to 150 million °C, facilitating the nuclear fusion process. This innovative method of energy production could become a vital part of sustainable energy policy worldwide.
