B&H CNC sheet metal processing in Haiger was looking for an automated solution to produce non-punchable parts in-house. Thanks to a fiber laser with a portal loader from Boschert, the contract manufacturer can now economically produce these parts internally and is also more flexible in production.

Single pieces, samples, small series – B&H CNC Sheet Metal Processing in Haiger supplies machine builders, suppliers, and customers from the heating and construction industry within a radius of about 200 kilometers with sheet metal parts and assemblies as a contract manufacturer. The ten-person workforce, led by the two managing directors Manuel Braun and Marco Hees, processes thin sheets up to eight millimeters thick made of alloyed and unalloyed steels, stainless steel, and aluminum. "Bending, punching, sawing, welding, riveting, and whatever else comes up have always been things we could handle in-house with our well-equipped machinery. Only the steadily increasing number of laser parts had to be purchased externally," explains managing director Marco Hees. Recently, this amounted to high six-figure sums per year, prompting the managing directors to search for a suitable automated laser machine.
