Who we are
At WMZ, we combine the proximity of a small, agile company with the strength of a broad-based technology group in the background. This enables us to offer a wide range of services on the one hand and a very direct way of working on the other, characterized by a distinctly hands-on approach—we get straight to the point in a solution-oriented manner and do not shy away from challenges.
It is important to us that we work closely with our colleagues, customers, and suppliers in a fair and equal manner. We value teamwork, appreciate the commitment of our 85 employees, and love flat hierarchies. We trust our colleagues and want to shape the future together with them in mutual appreciation.
That is why in-house training is particularly important to us. We train in four professions and thus invest in our future.

Where we come from
Werkzeugmaschinenbau Ziegenhain GmbH (WMZ) has been successfully active in mechanical engineering for over 50 years. Initially founded as a training location for NAXOS-UNION Schleifmaschinen GmbH, the company quickly took on more and more tasks in parts manufacturing, assembly, and ultimately mechanical engineering.
Following the takeover of the construction of center drive machines from Werkzeugmaschinenbau Sinsheim (WMS), Neue Magdeburger, and Heid, numerous customer-specific machines were developed and built under the “WMZ” brand between 2005 and 2022, which are now in use worldwide. The V300 machine type is now successfully continued by our sister company Pittler T&S GmbH. DVS Service GmbH is responsible for servicing WMZ machines.
What we do
WMZ is the component factory and thus the heart of the DVS TECHNOLOGY GROUP. At the Ziegenhain site, the group's core components, i.e.
- machine beds
- motor spindles
- multi-axis milling heads (“multifunctional heads”)
- gearbox spindle boxes
- linear axes
- center drives
are developed in close cooperation with sister companies. We design and manufacture all core mechanical components ourselves, enabling us to guarantee high quality and reliable delivery at competitive prices. Our products help our sister companies to be successful.
We use the mechanical engineering expertise of WMZ's highly specialized development team to develop machines for the group.
What we offer externally
We use the expertise generated within the group and our wide range of products to offer external customers high-precision, robust, and durable components for machine tools. We look forward to hearing about your individual wishes and requirements.
We use our modern and diverse production facilities to offer contract manufacturing. We live and breathe “Mü” and welcome every challenge.
Even though our components are very durable, they will need to be overhauled at some point. You've come to the right place.
