UHMWPE processing

Joint replacements may have parts made of UHMWPE, so we have special machines for working tibial inserts for knee replacements (fixed and mobile) and acetabular cups for hip replacements. Production is in temperature and humidity-controlled environments without oil mist. Machine tools are cooled without oils and downstream...

Deep drilling

Surgical instruments and intramedullary devices require precision drilling, with low roughness and deep penetration, usually in materials that are difficult to machine. Our drills for deep holes enable us to make cannulations starting from a diameter of 1.5 mm and up to 100 times the diameter...

FMS

To ensure the reduced times and costs of lean production management, Hofmann uses various robot systems that work in synergy with precision multi-axis machines. Our powerful automation capability enables us to manage small and large runs with the same efficiency....
