At the Rotec Engineering Center (REC) at our German Rotec site in Annweiler, we develop and implement tailor-made production lines and cutting-edge manufacturing technologies for the entire voestalpine Rotec Group - efficiently, flexibly, and precisely aligned with our customers’ requirements.
As the central hub for new lines and system expansions, our in-house engineering team combines all key competencies under one roof: project management expertise, extensive automation know-how, and deep knowledge of products, tools, and processes. This enables us to create specialized solutions that are often unavailable on the market - and to develop prototypes rapidly and efficiently, all from a single source.
Customer focus, flexibility and innovation at every stage
We develop our advanced lines in close collaboration with our customers - ensuring solutions that deliver both technical excellence and economic value. From initial product concepts to fully realized prototypes, we provide end-to-end consulting: we demonstrate what is technically possible and how to design products for optimal manufacturability and performance.
Our mechanical engineering expertise ranges from rolling and pressing tools to individual process stations and fully integrated production lines. Thanks to our modular system architecture, these lines can be expanded with exceptional flexibility - ideal for integrating new product variants into existing setups. Depending on project requirements, we decide strategically which services are executed in-house at the REC and which are handled externally, ensuring maximum efficiency and top-quality outcomes.
Our range of services includes:
The direct connection between engineering and production ensures short response times, fast decision-making, and the highest implementation quality.
A global advantage for our customers
Our lines are developed and built exclusively for the voestalpine Rotec Group sites worldwide. Currently, we focus on steering, chassis, and safety components such as gas generators for airbags, steering columns, pressure vessels, and shock absorber tube components. These highly specialized production lines are equipped with state-of-the-art testing and automation systems.
Our efficient and flexible production solutions deliver sustainable added value for our customers across the globe.
