It is our mission to start working with you today on your success of tomorrow – economic, efficient and low in risk. For this reason, we have established and continuously enhanced the Graebener® Prototyping Center.

When it comes to the development of new components as well as in case of capacity bottlenecks in your production, you as Graebener® partner benefit considerably from this service. A total of four hydraulic presses with closing force of 1,500, 2,500, 6,500 and 10,000 tons are available in the Graebener® Prototyping Center for various test series or small series production. With a size of 6 x 2.2 meters we offer you the world's largest machine table surface in the field of hydroforming.

We support and accompany you along the entire value-added chain, from the simulation phase up to the first components – and beyond.

The Graebener® Prototyping Center is well equipped for numerous test series and small series production – for hydroforming with internal as well as external pressure. Depending on your individual requirements and desires we select the press most suitable to ensure quick and reliable results.
