Where every era
writes a chapter
of success

Innovation and
technology

What once began with the manufacture of measuring tools is now home to and the production site of world-renowned brands in knurling technology. Hommel+Keller produces all tool solutions for the zeus and QUICK brands at its own site in Aldingen. With our own test machines and a strong drive for innovation and research, we are continuously developing our product portfolio. This results in tool solutions that allow our customers to always benefit from the latest developments in technology and innovation. Our successes have been recognized, for example, with the “Innovative through Research” seal from the Stifterverband für die Deutsche Wissenschaft e.V. (Donors’ Association for the Promotion of Sciences and Humanities in Germany).

with complete
conviction

Yes, we are doing well. But that is not something we take for granted: we should never forget that there are many people who are not doing so well, especially children. For this reason, social commitment is one of the cornerstones of Hommel+Keller’s corporate philosophy: we support institutions, associations, and projects in the region. What we do here is not for publicity reasons, but out of complete conviction.

Employer of the
future

At Hommel+Keller, we rely on motivated employees who are committed to their work. And we do everything we can to ensure this. As part of the “Employer of the Future” project, carried out in cooperation with the German Innovation Institute for Digitalization and Sustainability, we examined and optimized various factors such as modern leadership, innovative strength, the state of digital transformation, employee friendliness, and recruiting strategies—with successful results. The successful certification is an incentive for us to continue our efforts to inspire others as an employer.

Innovative through
research

The Stifterverband is one of the largest private science sponsors in Germany. In addition to its commitment to young academics, excellent universities, and cutting-edge research, it is also tasked with examining and evaluating the German research and innovation system.

The Stifterverband awards the “Innovative through Research” seal to all research-based companies that meet the award criteria in the field of research and development. We are delighted to have met these criteria.

What our
customers say

Customer
Czechia

“In the last 18 years, I have yet to find a knurling tool that was easier to set up than this one. We have been saving valuable time since we started using knurling tools from Hommel+Keller.”

Customer Baden-Württemberg

“In just 1.2 seconds of processing time, the marking is permanently and precisely engraved. We were able to reduce the cycle time by a total of 5 seconds with the zeus tool, and we also save ourselves the trouble of converting the component to laser.”

Customer Nordrhein-Westfalen

“With the diamond burnishing tool from zeus, we achieve a mirror-smooth surface with an Rz value between 0.8 and 0.9. This represents a huge leap in efficiency, because follow-up processing on the grinding machine is no longer necessary and the component now comes off the lathe ready to use.”
