The Secret: Carbon Fiber

Thanks to their carbon fiber structure, our machines are much lighter than conventional steel machines, a game-changing difference that redefines what's possible in our field.

Unleash Unrivaled Dynamics:

This unique design enables exceptional dynamics, with jerks of up to 100 m/s³, accelerations of 20 m/s², and maximum speeds exceeding 150 meters per minute. This is a truly disruptive leap in industrial machine design.

Own Production Technology

All our carbon fiber parts are produced in-house, ensuring the highest quality and precision.

Accuracy in Manufacturing

Knowhow in design and production

Bigger ever...

it also enables truly massive designs. We've already built systems over 80 meters long in X, nearly 15 meters in Y, and nearly 10 meters in Z. This combination of size and performance is unprecedented in the industry.

Precision after demand

We tailor the precision of each machine to your needs — from industrial standards to ultra-precise. Even on massive systems, we can achieve accuracies of just a few microns.

Case Studies

Fraunhofer IWES Demo Center

ANKER-TEC installed a CNC-controlled production cell featuring two cooperating 6-axis gantries. Each gantry, measuring 5 x 2 x 2.5 meters, can handle a 400 kg payload for end-effectors.

Volkswagen Wind Tunel

For Volkswagen's new wind tunnel efficiency center in Wolfsburg, ANKER-TEC was responsible for developing, manufacturing, and installing the traverse system used to position sensors. It has dimensions of roughly 12m x 9m x 3.75m.

Our experiences...

Here is just a small taste of what we’ve done so far — so just imagine what we can do for you.

Biggest Ever

We can manufacture large ships seamlessly. We've developed a machine exceeding 80 meters in length, 14 meters in width, and 9 meters in height.

Building a Plug

We integrate all the essential processes for plug construction, providing large-format capabilities that enable a single-piece solution. This delivers unrivaled speed and precision.
