Packaging of Components for the Replacement Part and CKD Markets
We assume overall responsibility for the packaging and delivery of replacement parts, CKD components and kit solutions. This includes the packaging planning, coordination of the supply chain and on-time delivery. Thanks to intelligent packaging design, we create ideal cardboard boxes and containers to guarantee cycle times that are as fast as possible and high transport protection. The packaging of parts takes place in an order-related manner and in accordance with the highest quality standards. If desired, the replacement parts are provided together with operating instructions, add-on parts and small parts for installation at the dealer and delivered as a kit. The CKD parts and pre-assembled units for the foreign markets are packaged in special overseas containers and loaded in containers.
We deliver as per your desired delivery instructions via truck, railway train, maritime freight, air freight or, if desired, also directly to the dealers. We also complete the customs clearing of the goods for you for foreign shipments. Our partners for the local added value abroad are located in the USA, China, South Africa and Egypt.
Thanks to our in-house software, which calculates the optimal container utilisation for each delivery, and our many years of cooperation with our global network of innovative logistics partners, we can offer you this comprehensive complete package at favourable conditions.
Our range of services covers the following:
- Process planning
- Investment for the required systems and tools
- Packaging planning and development
- Procurement of components (alternatively provided by the customer) and packaging materials
- MRP of components and packaging materials

Manufacturing of Jigs and Fixtures
Over the many years of cooperation, our customers have built up confidence in our expertise to the extent that they also hand over tasks to us that expand our range of services. The Manufacturing of Jigs & Fixtures area at Hörmann Automotive is an example of such cooperation. We plan and produce innovative jigs and fixtures by means of which the various different single parts of an end product or more complex components can be welded together in a dimensionally stable manner. We supply companies from various different sectors, including Mercedes-Benz, with customised overall solutions from the idea to acceptance by the customer and also produce the jigs and fixtures for our own requirements.
Our range of services covers the following:
- Consultation
- Planning/engineering
- Machining

Welded Systems
Our latest product range involves the production of welded systems for agricultural machinery. For approximately four years now, we have been producing complete chassis for fertiliser spreaders/manure tanks and recently also for a forage harvester. In this connection, our range of services is rounded off by the production of the associated add-on systems – such as the supporting frame for the tank or the mount for the cab. The production of such complex systems necessitates close cooperation with our customers, who we support in the long term as part of quality improvements – as well as with regard to technical simplification.
Our range of services covers the following:
- Production of complete chassis

Welded Components
We mainly produce axle-supporting chassis parts with differing degrees of complexity that we deliver directly – in welded assembly and welded component form – to the assembly line. All established robot and manual welding methods (MIG, MAG, TIG) are used and adapted to the material to be welded and customer requirements. Our state-of-the-art facilities guarantee that the customer is provided in each case with the optimal method for a high throughput rate with maximum quality and the lowest possible production costs.
Our range of services covers the following:
- Production of components and replacement parts in low-volume production
- Use of all established robot and manual welding methods (MIG, MAG or TIG)
- Assembly
- Machining
- Just-in-time or just-in-sequence delivery
- Weld-seam test
- Traceability
- Anti-corrosion coating in accordance with customer specification (e.g. cathodic dip painting)

Pressed Parts
We design products for very special requirements to suit the needs of our customers, who primarily come from agricultural and construction machinery technology. In the case of low to average unit figures, low tooling and process costs play an important role: Our employees have the required expertise to solve the conflict between tool and part prices so that the best possible result is achieved for our customers. Besides the usual bare or galvanised deep drawing steels, we are also experts when it comes to stainless steels, copper and aluminium. Sheet thicknesses of between 0.5 mm and 3 mm are formed as what are known as fine sheets. The wings for tractors and side trim parts for harvesting machines and tractors are given here as examples. However, we can also form thick plates of up to max. 8 mm, such as pedal levers, feed hoppers for harvesting machines and shields for exhaust systems. Presses with a pressing force of up to 16,000 kN are available for these tasks.
Our range of services covers the following:
- Development and planning
- Prototyping
- Pressing and forming of deep drawing steel, stainless steel, copper and aluminium
- Fine sheet: Sheet thicknesses of 0.5-3 mm
- Thick plate: Sheet thicknesses of max. 8 mm
- Pressing with a pressing force of up to 16,000 kN

Fuel and Refrigerant Pipes
We have decades of production expertise in the manufacturing of ready-to-install pipe systems for the transport of fuels and refrigerants in buses and passenger cars. In the meantime, we have delivered tens of thousands of complete pipe systems to OEMs. Depending on customer requirements, we form pipes made from steel, stainless steel, copper, brass or aluminium on state-of-the-art CNC bending machines and provide the pipe ends with suitable and stable connections. Besides refrigerant and fuel lines, we can in this way also produce various other line types – for example, hydraulic lines, oil lines or coolant lines. With individually agreed logistics concepts, we contribute to a smooth production process at the customer.
Our range of services covers the following:
- Pipe bending with diameters of between 2 mm and 70 mm to suit the specified bending radius
- Bending of steel, stainless steel, copper, brass and aluminium pipes

Bus Ceiling Systems
We are specialised in the production and ready-to-install assembly of interior equipment systems for commercial vehicles, in particular of ceiling systems. The ceiling systems in city buses and coaches are nowadays much more than decorative panels. These now conceal a complex structure of subsystems in a confined installation space that ensure greater safety and comfort for passengers: Functions such as cooling/air conditioning, audio and lighting must be optimally integrated in the confined installation space available. The objective here is functional reliability as well as weight reduction and ease of maintenance. We offer a comprehensive range of services for roof internal systems to suit customer requests. From the design to the development of prototypes to engineering, series production and delivery.
Our range of services covers the following:
- Engineering and series production from a single source
- Just-in-sequence delivery
