The parent group, founded in 1945, specializes in cold forming technology for the manufacture of rotationally symmetric precision components — principally thread rolling, profile rolling, spline rolling, and ring rolling — across fastener, automotive transmission, bearing, linear motion, and aerospace end markets. The product portfolio comprises three machine families (Thread and Profile Rolling, Spline Rolling, Ring Rolling), seven rolling-die types (circular, Rollex, incremental, planetary, flat, and rack dies), and four service lines (contract manufacturing, process development, regrinding, and profile measuring). Proprietary technologies include the SRS (Spur-Referenz-System) synchronized tool system, PROSurface BlackDiamond surface treatment for extended tool life, Profigrinder CNC grinding systems, and incremental and Rollex die architectures. The in-house tool department at Bad Düben employs over 100 staff across three shifts.

The group operates a global enterprise field-sales model via wholly-owned subsidiaries in 8 countries (India, China, USA, Italy, Korea, Czech Republic, Poland, Spain) and independent distributors in 6 additional markets, with annual sales meetings coordinating international representatives. Revenue is generated through one-time capital equipment sales, consumable rolling-die sales, and recurring professional services (regrinding, contract manufacturing, process development). Page Published 2025-2026 news indicates active product development, with the September 2025 launch of ptlite targeting aerospace weight reduction and a December 2025 corporate communication referencing continued product pipeline expansion. The holding maintains ISO 9001, ISO 14001, ISO 45001, and TISAX certifications from TÜV Süd.
