Meeting the Extreme Demands of Aviation, Space, and Nuclear Industries

With Schunk, you have a supplier by your side that offers all the technological possibilities of a globally active company and pragmatically brings your ideas to life – including parts for component manufacturing. For instance, in the rapidly growing aerospace industry, we have aligned our structures with the requirements of international engine manufacturers to provide the best possible production and quality processes. We uniquely combine innovation and technological know-how with exceptional service orientation, creating a range of services that is unparalleled in the market: Ultra-lightweight construction for more economy and efficiency, absolute reliability, and maximum safety. We understand the importance of high-safety components – both in terms of general safety and the potential economic impact on our customers. Therefore, every one of our employees involved is part of our implemented safety culture, where regular awareness and training sessions are held.

Our Material and Technology Expertise is Your Advantage

Benefit from our experience in manufacturing composite components, with expertise in plastic matrix composites such as CFRP, GFRP, AFRP, and ceramic matrix composites like CFC, C/SiC, OFC, SiC/SiC, or hybrid designs for applications like multi-material lightweight construction. We support you in the process development of CFRP solutions and in developing multi-material solutions using thermoset resins – heat-curable, non-melting plastics – or thermoplastics, which can be reshaped and melted under heat. Whether it's thermal treatment through autoclave technology, wet pressing, or the particularly economical volume component production with our carbon fiber sheet molding compounds (SMC) semi-finished products – we can fully adapt to your requirements. You can also rely on our expertise in precision fiber winding, custom fiber placement, and stitch technologies for reinforcement fibers.
