What Aerotech Peissenberg does

Aerotech Peissenberg GmbH & Co. KG is a precision manufacturer of Class 1 rotating and structural components for commercial and military aircraft engines, founded in 1970 as a subsidiary of MTU Munich. The company produces compressor disks, turbine disks, drums, seal rings, rings, and casings from nickel alloys and titanium, with manufacturing capabilities extending to components up to 1,250mm in diameter using 5-axis turning/milling, HVOF coating, and electron beam welding in an OEM-certified laboratory. Aerotech serves as a Tier-1 supplier to the major global engine and airframe OEMs, including Rolls-Royce, GE Aviation, Airbus, MTU Aero Engines, Safran, ITP, GKN, Siemens, and MAN.

The company operates from three locations: its headquarters in Peissenberg, Germany (400+ employees), a production facility in Klatovy, Czech Republic, and a joint venture in Mexico (AT Engine Mexico, 51% Aerotech / 49% Grupo Punto Alto). Since 2011, Aerotech has been owned by MT Aerospace Holding GmbH, a joint venture between OHB SE and Apollo Capital Partners. The company holds EN 9100, ISO 14001, and multiple Nadcap certifications and operates under long-term supply contracts, including a 20-year agreement with GE for the LEAP engine program.

Aerotech's revenue model is anchored in multi-year OEM supply contracts with structured volume commitments, with growth driven by scaling the Czech facility from 60,000 to 130,000 production hours and bringing the Mexico JV to a target of 1,200 LEAP engine part sets per annum. The company is led by Managing Directors Hans J. Steininger and Gabriel Oehme (CCO).
