How do we accomplish a reliable result with minimum effort in the shortest possible time? That is the question our customers ask us day by day. Our answer: We look into the latest technologies and we combine new advancements with the long-lasting experience in the interaction of hardware and software. The result: well-engineered technology that is full of ideas. Technology that guarantees high quality in your production line.
We set off in January 1985: Alfred Zimmer and Klaus Kreim started developing Zimmer+Kreim's first cavity sinking machine. That very year they presented our first novelty on the world market at the EMO in Hannover, Germany: the then unique electrode plate changer for the EROWA clamping system. Since then, technology has advanced rapidly, but our basic principle stayed the same: We are always searching for ready-to-use solutions that offer the optimum basis for an error-free, efficient work process. No matter if it is for our customers in mold and tool construction or for those producing semifinished parts. We know that reliability is not just a question of cost. Reliability also ensures that you can deliver properly even under time pressure in order to be able to stand your ground in the face of your competitors.
Success is our best piece of evidence: since we went into business, our company has grown continuously. Today we are Germany's market leader in the area of cavity sinking machines and the world market leader in the area of handling-system technology. All around the world our customers are convinced by the high performance of our technological developments. Let us name a few milestones: the ZK 1200 in portal structure with a then unique drive train concept, the ZUKIS identification system, the PROSYS process control system for Windows
or the now well-established controller generation genius. We introduced a new dimension of automated production in 2004 when we presented the genius 700 cavity sinking machine and the Chameleon handling system.
In what way we are
different from others
We take responsibility for all aspects of your production line’s organization. We do not only provide you with the individual components of maximum quality, but we also make sure that these components work together in an optimum manner. We know that you need flexible solutions today that will allow you to make efficient use of your resources tomorrow.
You might have guessed already: we believe that a good customer relationship has its base mainly in profound counseling and in partnership. We do not sell products off the rack, but we specifically commit ourselves to your individual needs. That is why our products are consequently designed on a modular basis: you will never have to buy unneeded parts, as you will always be able to upgrade your system in the future. It’s because we give so much attention to our customers that we often spot trends before others do. Our team of engineers – experts with a lot of experience – then implements these impulses.
Our development division is constantly searching for new ways to add new technologies to our portfolio. In doing so, we always focus on the development of modular components that will work together with existing products.Whatever the topic of our latest research may be, whatever machine we design: we do it all in Brensbach – a town located in the heart of Germany. Here, we centralized all of our divisions as well as our user- and training center. Because we believe in interchanging ideas without detours. And in our responsibility as a local employer.
