What we manufacture

A partner for single parts and series production

We process components where other production facilities reach their limits: welded structures up to 24 m in length and 160 t, high-strength and difficult-to-machine materials, complex 5-axis geometries. 29+ CNC systems, in-house work preparation, measurement technology, welding shop, painting, and assembly work hand in hand.

Procedures

Our Processes

CNC Milling

CNC milling at FORMA Maschinenbau: Milled parts up to 24 m length, 5-axis simultaneous machining, and 5-axis milling for single parts and series from the Münsterland region.

Large-Scale Machining

Large-scale machining at FORMA: mechanical machining of large parts up to 24 m in length and 160 t load capacity – including welded fabrications up to S355.

Complete Machining

Complete machining at FORMA: Turn-milling, 5-axis simultaneous, welded construction, and assembly – all from a single source.

Contract Manufacturing

CNC contract manufacturing with 29+ machines, ISO 9001:2015 – single parts, production series, and complete components for mechanical engineering from Borken-Weseke.

Machining Technology

Machining technology from the Münsterland region: mechanical machining, CNC machining, precision parts – family-owned since 2003.

CNC Mill-Turn

CNC mill-turn at FORMA: Turning and milling in a single setup, Y-axis, and 36 kW milling spindle – cost-effective for one-off parts and production runs.

Grooving, Broaching, and Slotting

Grooving, broaching, and slotting at FORMA: Feather keyways, splines, and internal profiles in hubs and bores – complementing CNC machining.

Welding

Welding at FORMA: Welded structures made of structural and fine-grained steel up to S690QL – including mechanical finish machining from a single source.

CNC Turning

CNC turning at FORMA: Turned parts up to 2,000 mm in length, simultaneous 5-axis machining with milling spindle, and an 80-pocket tool changer.
