We are happy to announce that our AEROMESH department for space and aircraft industries has successfully passed the Airbus IPCA qualification process this week.

We were able to reach the impressing amount of 92,5% of the available qualification scores. 80% are necessary to pass qualification.

This was another milestone that paves our way as supplier for the Airbus A350 series production.

This video shows a fully automatic expanded metal production line consisting of decoiler AW 1250, SP 1250 expanded metal machine, FLW 1250/F flattening/levelling device, multicut-shear MC 1250 and our AU 1250 recoiler.

We added a new video to our youtube-channel. The video shows a fully automatic expanded metal production system consisting of a destacking unit, a hydraulic electronic gripper feeder and the SP-3100 expanded metal machine.

We are happy to announce that Benmetal finally signed a procurement frame contract with EADS/Airbus after an extended period of testing, development and qualification.

Subject of this contract is the delivery of AEROMESH expanded metal products for the AIRBUS A350 project as well as further research and development in the fields of expanded metal products for the use in space and aircraft technologies.

The production of these AEROMESH products is running on brand new expanded metal lines which were especially designed for these products. To meet the high quality and safety requirements for aeronautical products the new production lines were set up on a newly built and separated production floor .

During his inaugural visit in the city of Siegen on July 25th consul general of the Russian confederation in Germany Jewgenij Schamagin visited our company. After the official salutation by governing mayor Steffen Mues the consul was willing to visit a company in the Siegen region that cooperates with Russian customers – luckily Benmetal was chosen.

Mr. Schamagin was visibly impressed to see the production of expanded metal on our SP 2500 expanded metal machine that was ordered by a customer from Russia.

We have started our Youtube channel!

In this channel we present clips about our machines showing them under productioc conditions and provide further information about the different models.

We are looking forward to your visit on Youtube.

After more than 3 years we are happy to have updated our company website.

Besides visible changes in layout we also added some new features e.g. you can now subscribe to our RSS/Atom feed or browse online through our interactive image folder.

We hope you will enjoy our new sites.

Caused by an increased demand for precise micro expanded metals we decided to extend our production capacities. Our expanded metal production hall has already been enlarged and currently we are filling the new floor with fresh production lines.
Our new department for space and aircraft technologies will also be set up on the new floor. The production of foil expanded metals in the new department will start in the middle of 2011. Currently we are occupied with the accredidation for aircraft industries and the corresponding quality norms.
