Müller

What Müller does

Müller Präzisionsteile GmbH is a German precision machining manufacturer headquartered in Pyrbaum, Bavaria. Founded in 1978, the family-owned company specializes in tight-tolerance CNC components manufactured on a project basis for customers in automotive (commercial vehicles and motorsport), aerospace, medical technology, mechanical engineering, and nuclear installations. The company is led by Managing Director Stephan Müller (Dipl.-Wirtsch.-Ing.) and operates with approximately 125-130 employees from a single facility in Pyrbaum.

The company's technical capabilities span the full spectrum of subtractive and additive precision manufacturing. CNC turning supports diameters from 1 to 400 mm, while five-axis milling handles workpieces up to 1,600 mm and 3,000 kg. Complementary capabilities include cylindrical grinding (2-350 mm), wire and die-sink EDM, and selective laser melting (SLM) for additive manufacturing of metal components. Quality assurance is anchored on Zeiss coordinate measuring machines. Müller holds EN 9100:2018 (aerospace), DIN ISO 9001:2015, KTA 1401 (nuclear), AEO-C (customs), and DIN ISO 14001 (environmental) certifications, signaling access to highly regulated end markets.

Müller's commercial model is direct, project-based B2B contract manufacturing with ex-works pricing per DIN/EN standards. The company does not sell standardized catalog products; instead, each engagement is a custom production run for a specified drawing or specification. Named customers include Hyundai Motorsport (WRC), Audi Sport, HWA AG (Formula 1 and motorsport engineering), MAN Truck & Bus, and MAN Energy Solutions. The company received the "Supplier of the Year 2020" award from Hyundai Motorsport, reflecting an embedded supplier position in international motorsport. The business shows no evidence of outside capital, acquisitions, or ownership change since founding.
