Performance reliability and efficiency in steel processing.

Technology that earns its place.

At CraftStahl, technology is never an end in itself. It is a tool designed to perform where steel is processed every day — under pressure, in continuous operation, and as part of existing systems.
Our technologies are developed from the realities of steel processing, not from specifications or trends. We focus on solutions that improve performance, stabilize processes, and create economic value in daily operation. That means fewer system breaks, predictable results, and technologies that integrate seamlessly into established workflows.

Whether cutting, welding, or forming, every CraftStahl technology follows the same principle: it must work reliably from day one, adapt to real-world conditions, and hold up over time. Because in steel processing, progress is not defined by innovation alone — but by what consistently delivers on the shop floor.

The new era of steel processing

Fiber Laser Cutting

Precision.
Without rework.

Our laser technology provides relief where the pressure is highest – in the production halls of steel fabricators and steel service centers. The new era of steel processing means precision without rework, flexibility with high throughput – built for steel, not for compromise. You can respond flexibly to different hole diameters without keeping drills or milling tools in stock. In other words: you have every diameter on hand. Cutting, drilling, punching, and shearing – now handled by one machine.

Laser replaces plasma and mechanical processing, offering greater speed, precision, and efficiency.
Precision Clean cutting edges, accurate miters and openings. Reworking – once unavoidable with plasma – is now largely eliminated.
Speed Higher cutting speeds and automated processes increase throughput in multi-shift operation.
Quality Lower heat input protects the material and ensures consistent results – even with high tonnage.
Flexibility Different profiles, pipes, and flat materials can be processed on a single machine – without tool changes or system breaks.
For steel fabricators: greater freedom in design, shorter process times, and less manual work. For steel service centers: reliable productivity, robust machines offering high flexibility for customer requirements, and consistent cutting quality over many years — ensuring seamless integration into their process chains.

Quality without downtime

Robotic Welding

Quality.
Without downtime.

Welding is a physically demanding process – increasingly unpopular, yet critically important. Today, robotics ensures and enhances both the quality and speed of steel welding. Our systems handle typical welding tasks reliably, maintain craftsmanship quality in operation, and deliver consistent results – predictable, repeatable, and efficient. Automation also eases recruitment challenges by creating far more attractive working conditions than traditional welding – for those who don’t need a plan B.

Robotics doesn’t just replace missing specialists – it creates new reliability, eases recruitment, and makes everyday work easier for employees.
Consistency: Welding with uniform quality – shift after shift, without breaks, without downtime.
Precision Vision systems respond to actual conditions such as welding gaps and automatically adjust the weld path.
Flexibility: From simple seams to multi-layer and full-penetration welds – a wide range of applications is automated.
Quality Control: IFC-based systems such as VikingWeld detect deviations between design and reality at an early stage and document all welding parameters.
Operational Reliability: Whether crane, forklift, or roller conveyor — robots integrate into existing workflows instead of disrupting them.
For steel fabricators, this means predictability, efficiency, and maximum flexibility with consistent quality – regardless of staffing levels.

When size matters, precision decides.

Laser Welding

Precision.
At scale.

Where heat distortion and rework once dominated, laser welding brings stability, speed, and precision. Different thicknesses, materials, and lengths are joined automatically – with less effort, less downtime, and higher quality – because progress proves itself in daily operation.

Laser welding opens a new dimension in the processing of large-format plates.
Stability Less heat input means less distortion – components retain their dimensional accuracy.
Speed The process is significantly faster than conventional welding methods and increases productivity in multi-shift operation.
Precision Different thicknesses and materials are joined automatically – with accurate fit and repeatable results.
Quality Assurance On request, seams can be inspected by integrated ultrasonic testing – in the same setup, without additional steps.
Operational Reliability Instead of manually aligning individual parts, plates are first welded to optimal size and then processed further – saving time and improving component quality.
For steel fabricators: faster processes, less rework, and lasting precision – even in large-scale projects.
For steel service centers: greater delivery reliability, consistent quality, and the opportunity to expand their portfolio, offer new customer services, and differentiate themselves from the competition – efficiently and without added complexity.

Flexibility and throughput in series.

Roll Forming

FritzForm · Roll Forming

Series.
Simplified.

When every minute counts and different profiles are required in high quantities, you need solutions designed and built for steel processing. Our systems offer fast changeovers between C-, Z-, and U-profiles, variable material thicknesses, and precise lengths. No downtime. No long setup times. Integrates. Fits. Runs.

Roll forming makes the serial production of profiles efficient, precise, and economical.
Flexibility C-, Z-, and U-profiles from 80 to 300 mm in width, quick changeover between formats (C to Z in approx. 5 minutes), variable material thicknesses up to 550 MPa.
Performance Production speed up to 32 m/min, digital changeover via one-button control, servo drive for consistent quality.
Operational Reliability Intuitive operation, remote control, and storable configurations. Short delivery times, fast on-site installation, and worldwide spare parts availability.
For steel fabricators: profiles that are immediately available – precise and ready without long setup times. For steel service centers: a broader product range, faster delivery capability, and reliable processes even at high volumes.
