Modern machine and plant manufacturers rely on high-quality cast and machined components – from gearbox housings to covers. Learn how ZIMM meets these demands with its own in-house production.

#### Which mechanical engineering components are covered by ZIMM's portfolio?

We manufacture, among others:

- Gearbox housings
- Planet carriers
- Intermediate flanges
- Gearbox covers
- And much more

These components are specifically designed for use in machinery and plant construction.

#### What role does casting play in the production process?

A large proportion of our gearbox housings is made from castings. Our in-house foundry is an integral part of our production and manufacturing chain.

#### Why is ZIMM the right partner for casting solutions?

Thanks to our integrated production, we can respond flexibly to requirements regarding material, geometry, and machining – all handled directly in-house.
