history

Berthold Hermle founded the Berthold Hermle company in Gosheim in 1938 - screw factory and mold turning shop . In 1957 the production of milling machines began. The company was renamed in 1990 to Maschinenfabrik Berthold Hermle AG and went public on April 10, 1990. Before that, the company was mainly known under the name BHG (for Berthold Hermle Gosheim).

Products

The company produces small to medium-sized three to five-axis milling machining centers for a wide range of applications. Machines for applications with increased demands on precision or cutting volume are also manufactured. The different machine models are available with magazine extensions and pallet changers. Furthermore, various handling systems are offered directly by the manufacturer. Hermle also offers a combination of a 5-axis machining center (type C-40) with a metal powder application unit (MPA technology) for additive manufacturing . Hermle MPA technology is a thermal spraying process based on cold gas spraying . Instead of fusing the metal powder particles with a laser, as is the case with laser deposition welding with metal powder - a comparable additive manufacturing process - with metal powder application , the particles are accelerated to very high speeds with the aid of a carrier gas and applied to the respective substrate through a nozzle. When the powder particles hit the substrate surface, the particles and the surface are severely plastically deformed: "This creates a binding contact area between the particle and the substrate or previously applied powder particles.
