Successful connection of a special machine (door frame production) at

Jeld-Wen Germany invests in the production of special frames for doors at the Mitweida plant and has commissioned CAD Line with the connection of a Lehbrink special machine for the frame production. We solved this task professionally and on short notice to the complete satisfaction of the customer.

Project schedule:

  • Short-term conceptual design of a complete solution.
  • Integration into the already built plant in the shortest possible time.
  • Customer training at CAD Line and for acceptance at the machine manufacturer.
  • Supplementary training for independence of the customer.
  • Final adjustments of the system online according to customer requirements in consultation with the machine manufacturer.
Where other programs reach their limits, NC-Studio® is very flexible and can do much more. NC-Studio® is very user-friendly and can be learned quickly even by laymen." (Katja Munke, JELD-WEN Germany GmbH & Co. KG)
