HEDELIUS: Machining Expertise with Tradition and Vision

An ear for the customer, an eye on the market and a sense for the future – these values have shaped HEDELIUS for three generations. As a manufacturer of high-performance machining centers, HEDELIUS continuously sets benchmarks in modern metal cutting and combines technological innovation with practical solutions for the manufacturing industry.

High-Performance Machining Centers Made in Germany

HEDELIUS machining centers stand for maximum precision combined with high performance and dynamic operation. The machines are developed and manufactured in Germany and meet the requirements of demanding production companies across a wide range of industries.

Guaranteed machine availability, minimal setup times and high process reliability enable users to sustainably increase their productivity. As a result, HEDELIUS customers benefit from an exceptionally attractive cost-performance ratio.

Efficient Manufacturing from Batch Size 1 to 500

Many manufacturing companies face the challenge of responding flexibly to varying order quantities. HEDELIUS machining centers are specifically designed to produce batch sizes between 1 and 500 parts economically.

Thanks to intelligent machine concepts and modern automation solutions, setup times can be reduced by up to 80 percent. This leads to shorter throughput times and significantly higher machine productivity.

Live Demonstrations at the HEDELIUS Technology Center

At its modern technology center, HEDELIUS demonstrates the capabilities of its CNC machining centers under real production conditions. Visitors have the opportunity to experience the machines live in operation at any time and see the precision, dynamics and process reliability for themselves.

This allows manufacturing companies to evaluate how HEDELIUS solutions can be integrated into their production processes before making an investment decision.

CNC Service for Maximum Machine Availability

Production downtime is costly. That is why a powerful service organization plays a crucial role in ensuring maximum machine availability.

More than 50 highly qualified service technicians in both field and internal service support customers quickly and professionally with technical challenges. The service hotline assists with fault diagnosis and coordinates repairs of defective components as well as the rapid delivery of required spare parts.

Service Technicians On-Site Within Hours

If an on-site service visit is required, a qualified service technician can be available within just a few hours. This rapid response helps minimize downtime and maintain productivity over the long term.

Long-Term Customer Relationships Through Technical Expertise

The HEDELIUS team is known for its extensive know-how and exceptional precision. This forms the foundation of numerous long-standing customer relationships within the metalworking industry.

Equally important are honesty, reliability and sound corporate management. These values create trust and provide the basis for sustainable partnerships.

A Shared Passion for Innovative Manufacturing Technology

Technology creates opportunities and opens new possibilities in manufacturing. At the same time, modern engineering inspires through its performance and efficiency.

Ultimately, success is determined not only by technology itself but by the economic value it creates. That is why HEDELIUS develops machining centers and service solutions with a clear focus on productivity, availability and profitability.

Heading image: Manufacturing with responsibility.

HEDELIUS sees itself as a technological manufacturing partnerfor machining companies that want to think sustainably and produce successfully in the long term. Our claim goes beyond the construction of high-performance machine tools: we develop solutionsthat support companies in installing their production more economically, reliably and future-proof. Practical relevance, innovative strength and partnership-based cooperation are at the centre of our actions. Our mission statement can be summarised in three principles:

Technology that

pays off.


Manufacturing

for practical use.


Long-term

reliability.


Every machine that passes through your warehouse door should make a measurable contribution to greater stability, precision and cost-effectiveness, rather than merely delivering short-lived benefits.

We develop new solutions through direct dialogue with users. The Technology Centre in Meppen offers real-world production conditions for trial machining. This isn’t just a showcase; it’s where we fine-tune our processes through hands-on testing.

As an independent family-run business with a high degree of in-house production and an excellent credit rating, we consistently invest in development, manufacturing and service, so that you can still rely on your machine ten years from now.

Customer benefits: What you get out of it.

#1 More peace of mind in production

Thanks to stable machine concepts, precise linear guides, direct measuring systems and sophisticated kinematics, HEDELIUS machining centres achieve positioning accuracies in the μm range. This reduces rework, measuring effort and queries from quality assurance and ensures reproducible dimensional accuracy in everyday series production.

#2 More spindle hours through tooling optimisation

Large tool magazines, integrated zero-point clamping technology, 3D measuring sensors and STANDBY MAGAZIN allow you to do less searching, measuring and retooling internally. The aim is to move set-up operations away from the machine to a well-organised set-up station so that your machining centres can work while you prepare.

#3 Automation that fits your batch sizes

From compact pallet magazines to highly flexible system racks and robot cells: MARATHON solutions and open interfaces to established automation partners ensure that you can automate step by step, to suit parts, weights and accuracy requirements.

#4 Service available

A comprehensive network of service technicians, a free service hotline, the HEDELIUS service app and an extensive spare parts warehouse ensure machine availability of 95% and minimise downtimes.

#5 Knowledge transfer for your team

At the CNC Academy in Meppen, operators and programmers receive practical training on the latest HEIDENHAIN and SIEMENS control systems and real machining centres. This enables your team to fully utilise the potential of the machines in everyday work.

What sets us apart.
In the depths of the machine.

Critical assemblies such as travelling columns, beds and rotating/swivelling tables are machined in our own 1,800 m² machining plant on modern 5-axis centres for workpieces up to 30 t and 12 m in length. This allows us to keep dimensional accuracy, rigidity and long-term precision under control and to consistently design machine geometries for stability and accuracy.

Our range deliberately focuses on machining centres and automation for single parts and small series production. Instead of an "off-the-shelf machine", you get a platform with useful optional features that exactly match your range of tasks, from large tool magazines and zero-point clamping technology to customised automation solutions.

TILTENTA series
MARATHON series

Technology results in a stable manufacturing process.

A powerful machine alone does not guarantee a successful manufacturing process. Only the interplay of suitable technology, well thought-out process planning and practical support creates the conditions for permanent economic results. That's why at HEDELIUS we don't just look at the machine, but at the entire production task. From analysing your requirements to selecting the right solution and optimising it during operation, we accompany you step by step on the way to a stable and reliable process. We usually proceed in three clear steps:

UNDERSTAND WHAT THEY PRODUCE

Joint analysis of parts, batch sizes, material mix, tolerances and current hall situation, including consideration of tooling times, spindle hours and available resources.

FIND THE RIGHT COMBINATION

Based on this analysis, a configuration consisting of machining centre, zero-point clamping technology, tool management and, if appropriate, automation is defined that is closed to your task profile and budget.

SUPPORT UNTIL THE PROCESS IS COMPLETE

Commissioning, training, optimisation of end programs, support with set-up concepts and, if required, test machining in the technology centre with the aim of ensuring that your machine not only runs, but also reliably delivers parts in the required quality.

Invitation:
Experience manufacturing live.

Experience what your production can do.

Paper is no substitute for chips. If you feel that your production could do more, be it through shorter tooling times, additional shifts with automation or simply more process reliability, we invite you to Meppen.

At the technology centre, you can see ACURA, TILTENTA and MARATHON automation in action under real conditions. We will talk about your parts, your deadlines and your team and how technology that pays off can look in concrete terms in your operation.

In this way, another machining centre becomes a reliable component of your production and every spindle run becomes a unit of added safety in your everyday life as a production manager.
