Heidelberg Officially Opens New Hand-Molding Plant at Amstetten Site

The new hand-molding plant is designed so that external companies from sectors such as mechanical, automotive, and wind engineering can also benefit from the expertise Heidelberg offers in the manufacture of high-quality castings.

“As part of our strategic realignment, Heidelberg has set itself the medium-term target of generating annual sales of EUR 100 million from the new System Manufacturing section by pooling our external contract manufacturing portfolio. With its new hand-molding plant, the Amstetten foundry will play a key part in this,” explained Stephan Plenz, member of the Heidelberg Management Board, who is also responsible for System Manufacturing.
