Founded in 2003, this company specializes in developing, designing, and manufacturing cutting tools, cutting inserts, and tool holders, particularly special tools. As Gerd Keck, the previous owner and managing director, emphasizes together with the future managing directors Mattias Bauz, Jochen, and Steffen Schmigalla, all employees at the Rheinau location will be retained with the new company formation, and existing business relationships with customers in all sectors will be maintained and further developed.
Continuity ensured
According to Mattias Bauz, who is also one of three managing directors at MAS GmbH in Leonberg, continuity is thus ensured. Keck has already been a partner for MAS GmbH. The specialists in Rheinau particularly sharpen cutting inserts for the innovative turning tools of the Leonberg technology company.
MAS has more than 40 years of experience in machining manufacturing processes and tool development. Especially for sophisticated tool systems for highly productive manufacturing in series on turning centers and multi-spindle lathes, the experts in Leonberg are particularly valued in the automotive industry and among its suppliers.
Recognizing and seizing opportunities
Regarding the future business development at the tool grinder in Rheinau, Steffen Schmigalla, partner at MAS in Leonberg, says: 'Keck and MAS, as owner-managed and family-run companies, represent a philosophy focused on long-term success. This commonality is a decisive driving force for us to continue the business of the previous Keck GmbH with our newly founded MAS Carbide GmbH. Naturally, this also includes continuing the relationships with existing customers in full agreement. In the coming decades, we want to be a qualified partner for suppliers and customers and jointly develop and realize competitive, innovative tool systems. Alongside this, we will utilize all opportunities with MAS Carbide GmbH to open up further sectors and markets for our innovative tool systems.'
