Description

Manufacturer of mechanical fasteners for the automotive industry

Company Profile

Now, after going into its fifth generation, the family business, employing more than 170 staff, annually produces about 125 million fasteners, weighting about 8,500 tons. More than 20% of the goods produced are exported. At present, it supplies 25 different countries. The spectrum of articles produced has also been further specialised. Fasteners are produced almost exclusively to customers'' drawings; there are no goods on stock - instead of this, the company is in many cases the developer of the elements for the customer and their supplier, as well. The production concentrates on the cold forming of wire (for example, screws and bolts) in overlengths of 100 to 600 mm with diameters of 3.0 to16.0 mm, as well as in the combined upsetting and bending process for parts. The company''s know how is specially displayed in its extrusion and upsetting process in 1 - 4 stages, thread rolling, as well as bending, flattening and punching in multistage operation dies. For this Company purpose, in addition to the multistage presses, the straightening and thread-rolling machines, the company also possesses eccentric and toggle presses. For operational steps that do not belong to the core business, such as heat and surface treatment, PRINZ uses the services of efficient sub-contractors. Looking to the future, PRINZ is working on achieving a greater production depth by means of a higher number of assembly parts. Large series production is carried out economically and employing safe production processes on interlinked machine devices, which are in part monitored by video cameras. Since 1999, the first robot machines have been in use in a special coating plant.

Not to be forgotten

For 40 years, the automobile industry and its suppliers have been among the principal customers. At an early date, PRINZ already made the high quality requirements resulting from this fact into its own standards and has consistently kept to these. This strategy has paid off in the numerous awards received from its customers, such as the "Q-1 Award" from Ford in 1990, and also in the continually more demanding certifications to DIN ISO 9002 in 1995, QS 9000 and VDA 6.1 in 1998, resp. TS 16949 in 2001. And this is not all. PRINZ also supplies, among others, the electrical and tool industry and the machine construction branch, too.
