GROB Group : Growth with Innovations

As a global player in the development and manufacturing of machines and production lines, the heart of the GROB-Group beats in Germany since 1926. Our customers include the world`s most prestigious car manufacturers, their suppliers and many other renowned companies from various industries. With our production plants in Mindelheim (Germany), Bluffton (Ohio, USA), São Paulo (Brazil) and Dalian (China), and worldwide service and sales subsidiaries, we are represented around the globe. The GROB Group generates worldwide revenue of over 1 billion euros with a workforce of about 5,600 employees.

Product Portfolio
The product portfolio ranges from the universal machining center all the way through to highly complex production systems with individual automation, and from manual assembly stations through to fully automated assembly lines.

Our know-how in designing production systems combined with state-of-the-art technology, enables Grob to offer solutions for high volume production. Those solutions are individually designed to meet the specific customer needs. The production systems mainly consist of modular machining centers (G-series) and special-purpose machines, interlinked with the latest automation solutions.

With its universal machines, GROB has for the first time in its successful machine building history introduced a standalone machining center which proves the technological know-how and developing competence of the GROB engineers in this market segment. The universal machining centers G350, G550 and G750 successfully complement the G-series and open up an even larger application range for the existing portfolio. As all modules from the G-series, they originate from the same modular construction system, are characterized by their compact design and enable excellent visibility and best accessibility to the work areas.

Elaborate high technology, made by GROB
With our machines and installations GROB offers highest quality and reliability and is also very flexible in the machining of the latest engine generations, whether diesel or gasoline. Developing new technologies has been an important part of the company success since the beginning. By this there are always new technologies which do also set standards within the machine building industry. Demanding high-class technology which distinguishes the 90-year success story of GROB. New machines, retrofitting, re-use and integration of existing machining cells as well as connection to third-party installations, are our challenges which we meet day by day.

Also at the moment the GROB development department engages in the requirements of the technological changes. Our engineers thus provide solutions within the coating technology for engine components, e.g. for the cylinder surfaces of the engine block, for the machining of high-strength turbine housings as well as for frame, structure and chassis components.

At the same time production equipment for electro-motors, but also assembly lines for battery and fuel cell technology are built. In addition, in the age of Industry 4.0 GROB does a big step into the digital future with the in-house developed industry software GROB-NET4Industry for preventive maintaining and networking of production equipment.

It is our incentive to develop technical innovations for an economic production in accordance to our customers‘ requirements. Energy saving, conservation of resources and the utilization of environmentally friendly materials and technologies are important factors for our daily work.

Branch of trade
No matter whether automotive, aerospace, mechanical engineering, tool and mold industries, medical or energy technology – our machines cover a convincingly broad range of possible applications and provide the optimum solution for just about any material.
