What our customers say
Cooperation with ZIMM is very simple and uncomplicated. The system impresses with very high quality workmanship. The assembly is very simple. In the development of new machines and systems, I would like to see more partners like ZIMM.
Michael Steurer | Member CTO Office
EISBÄR Trockentechnik GmbH
As the product manager for blockmolds, I am always on the lookout for innovative solutions for our machines. With ZIMM, we have found a competent partner to further improve the quality of our machines. Thanks to the company’s flexibility, we were able to jointly develop a special gearbox that is precisely tailored to our requirements.
Martina Schiava | Engineering
HIRSCH Maschinenbau GMBH
We were looking for a new solution for the drive technology of our machine and with the ZIMM KGT spindles we realised the right step towards a technically precise, robust and durable solution. The ZIMM spindle drives facilitated the transformation from a custom-designed machine to a standard machine.
Otmar Weirich | CEO
INGENIA GmbH
With ZIMM, we have been combining technologically sophisticated solutions with optimum customer service for many years. In this way, this project could also be implemented to the complete satisfaction of our customer.

By using screw jacks, we realise movements in different degrees of freedom. This gives us the flexibility to produce slit profiles with different geometries. ZIMM supported us very well in the selection and design of the screw jacks.

TU Darmstadt | Institute for Production Engineering and Forming Machinery
In order to save weight, a new, flexible rolling process is to be used to subsequently introduce variable wall thicknesses in T-profiles along their length. The screw jacks realise the necessary translatory movement of the rollers. My thanks for the very good advice and support in this project go to ZIMM.
