Creating innovative solutions
We believe product excellence comes down to every detail. Thus, our development team of more than 120 engineers delivers innovative approaches to products and their production. Those are ideated in design-thinking workshops by our cross-functional teams and then aligned with our customers' ideas to make their products stand out.
Development
Forward-driven solution provider
OECHSLER operates extensive digital product and process simulations to enhance functionality according to the needs of our customers. Depending on your challenges, we offer design-to-manufacturing, design-to-cost, failure path detection (FMEA), and advanced product quality planning (APQP) services. For every process, our teams determine the optimal solution in close cooperation with our customers, from product requirements to construction and assembly automation.
Industrialization
Process know-how for all challenges
Executing an industrialized production requires a team of skilled engineers, out-of-the-box thinking, well-equipped manufacturing facilities, and comprehensive process expertise. As a turnkey partner for various industries, OECHSLER operates the complete assembly portfolio from component handling and joining technologies to customized testing capabilities for any production volume. Furthermore, OECHSLER is firm in managing a supply base for an external value chain.
Series production
