Astro- und Feinwerktechnik Adlershof GmbH We provide a full range of ser- vices, and we know how to solve the difficult challenges of technol- ogy, quality and delivery sched- ules. Our services include proven, cooperative partnerships in heat treatment, surface treatment, welding, plus many other opera- tions. The use of ultra-modern tactile and optical 3-coordinate measur- ing machines enables us to measure workpieces with volumes of up to 700 x 1000 x 660 mm with a precision of up to 1.5 + 3*L/1000 μm. We also provide our customers with specialized fitting, alignment, balancing, and bonding pro- cesses, following ECSS stan- dards (European Cooperation for Space Standardization). Our qualified staff has individual ESA- Qualifications for bonding, solder- ing, crimping, and soldering and crimping inspections. We offer development and design services from concept through to complete production documents. Our engineers use state-of-the- art tools within the design process and for FEM and thermal calculations. Experience, materi- als expertise and direct access to production guarantee functional, marketable solutions. Astro- und Feinwerktechnik Adlershof GmbH is certified to DIN EN ISO 9001:2008 and DIN EN 9100:2003. The certifications are regularly renewed. Overview Our strengths include astronau- tics, handling technology, automation, specialty machine design, measurement and test equipment production, as well as specialized transport solutions. We have comprehensive experi- ence in processing special mate- rials such as titanium base alloys, stainless steel, Inconel, Invar, Kovar, structural materials (CFRP, GFRP) and plastics (PEEK, Torlon). We also have the right facilities for conducting production and assembly activities with a low level of contamination under clean room conditions (ISO class 8). Astro- und Feinwerktechnik Adlershof GmbH has over 15 years experience in developing, manufacturing and testing highly reliable precision and mechanical engineering components, sub- assemblies and devices. So we are a professional partner for science and industry. We use modern machinery to manufacture unique models and series of products with the great- est precision and the shortest processing times. State-of-the-art production centres with a stable design (Gantry) enable us to manufacture high-precision com- ponents. The average machine age is less than 3.5 years. Direct measuring procedures and the use of shrink-fit chucks for clamping tools during the production process guarantee the highest level of precision. In the CNC field we consistently use a CAD/CAM solution for everything from sim- ple 2½-axis machining processes to 5-axis machining centres. We also have the ability to manufac- ture free-form surfaces.
