During the product development stage we work closely together with our customers, making use of Simultaneous Engineering. We optimize your processes and develop machine concepts that help you to achieve more efficiency at lower costs. ProProTec, a company within the Berger Group, specializes in the development of tools that cater to your needs. In addition, our in-house modern metal-hardening facilities, shipping and logistical services, all work to offer our customers a complete spectrum of advantages, to help you achieve your business objectives. As a full service provider, we offer all of these services within the scope of quality and efficient preplanning. For several decades, many worldwide companies have entrusted us with their complex and unique requirements, and we continue to be a trusted partner, resulting in over 500 million components shipped annually from our plants worldwide.

Support for product development

We will work along side you, as a partner, and support you in product development, for a specific component, or an entire component group. Using our expertise in metal-cutting and machining, we will work to find you the ideal part geometry, the optimal material and match it with the appropriate hardening technology for production – all this to achieve optimal and cost-effective production.

Simultaneous Engineering
Berger is proud to offer our customers Simultaneous Engineering during the development phase of new products. By doing this, we can shorten the development time for prototypes, new products, and avoid subsequent costly changes that often arise from production difficulties. Overall, our customers profit from an improved ability to effectively synchronize product development and product production.

Process development

Once product development has been completed, the process development phase defines how the product should be manufactured. It is imperative that the correct manufacturing process is determined, which is why the process development phase is of utmost importance. As a result, we are able to offer our customers significant potential savings through optimization of machining sequences, and the choice of machine concepts.

Machine development

To meet the needs of our customer requirements, we have developed modern machining centers, automated testing machining that result in production systems that are able to further increase the efficiency of production.

For especially demanding projects, Berger has the use of the Bergomat CTC 16. This machine, developed at Berger, enables us to produce efficiently and economically, components that have a very high degree of complexity. 

 

Properties of the Bergomat:

  • Rotary transfer machine with up to 93 CNC axes
  • Six-sided machining
  • Flexible loading options
  • Up to max. Ø 50 mm from the bar
  • Up to max. 100 mm edge length / chuck parts
  • Up to max. 180 mm workpiece lengths

Tool development

Established in 2002, and owned by the Berger Group since 2013, ProProTec Präzisionswerkzeuge GmbH & Co. KG is a company that offers a broad spectrum of specialized tools and dies. ProProTec offers 3D-CAD systems, high-precision tool grinding and tool eroding machines, and measuring technology. Tool development has become a core competency for Berger, and our customers have benefited greatly from this area of expertise.
