Overbeck

Overbeck is a 100-year-old German company specialising in internal, external, and radius grinding

Leaders in high precision machining

The experience of machining hard metal-ceramic parts, bearings, spindles, gears, and forming tools, among others, gives us solid know-how to develop high precision solutions for many other materials and workpieces.

One of the most robust grinding machines

Decades later, Overbeck machines still achieve the same levels of precision as on the first day.
