Passionate mechanical engineers and contract manufacturers

Fetzel Maschinenbau GmbH

We give our customers a decisive competitive edge

Drawing on many years of in-depth expertise in laminating and cutting technology, we supply our customers with high-quality laminators for coating processes, cutting machines and custom solutions. We develop and build them ourselves.
We support our customers in producing components and parts for their applications and production systems. The components produced meet the highest standards of functionality, quality and surface finish.
In our in-house manufacturing, we use state-of-the-art machining technology to produce high-precision turned and milled parts, as well as 3D-printed parts to customer specifications — from individual parts to small series — for use worldwide.

Whether you come to us with an idea, a sketch or a finished design drawing, we support you as your mechanical engineering partner and specialist in CNC machining and SLS 3D printing.

From the first consultation onwards, a dedicated contact works with you to develop a solution that helps your business move forward. We provide industrial quality made in Austria and services from a single source.

Our values

Innovation

We help our customers gain competitive advantages by thinking ahead and taking on their demanding challenges. This allows us to find creative solutions even for difficult tasks — in design engineering, component manufacturing and customer-specific process optimisation.

Teamwork

We value mutual trust, reliability and a readiness to take responsibility. For us, shared goals and collective action take priority over individual interests.

Precision and quality

For us, precision means meeting the specifications agreed with our customers exactly. Our commitment to quality also includes the durability of our machines and the environmental optimisation of our production and logistics. This is another way we help protect the environment.

ISO-certified company

Quality is more than a promise to us — it is our standard. As a company certified to ISO 9001:2015, we place great importance on efficient processes and high customer satisfaction. Our certification underlines our commitment to continuous improvement and excellent performance.

Quality-conscious company in the skilled trades

FETZEL is a member of the Vorarlberg Guild of Metal and Electrical Technicians (MET). As a quality-focused skilled trade company, we provide young people with solid training in the following occupations:

Metal technician (specialist field: machine manufacturing technology)
Electrical technician (specialist field: electrical systems technology)

Unfortunately, we currently have no apprenticeship vacancy.

Apprenticeship opportunities

Innovative apprenticeship training at FETZEL

Apprenticeship training has a long tradition at FETZEL. All apprentices benefit from our membership of Wirtschaft – Lehre im Walgau. The platform gives them access to additional training that is otherwise usually only available in large companies.

Company history

More than four decades of experience

Workshop behind the family home

In 1979, Alois Fetzel built a small 100 m² workshop behind his home, at the time in Thüringerberg, and founded the company with an NC-controlled automatic lathe. Five years later, he expanded the services offered by the small CNC contract turning business. In 1984, the founder developed and manufactured the first laminator for coating circuit boards.

From CNC contract manufacturing to machine building

In 1995, his son, Thomas Fetzel, joined the company. His expertise helped bring numerous machines to series-production readiness.

In 2009, he took over management and steadily expanded the Vorarlberg-based family business. Today, the company’s CNC machining operations produce high-precision components — from individual parts and small series through to high-volume runs — and also assemble complete modules.

The photo shows company founder Alois Fetzel with his son Thomas in front of the new company building in 2006.

Development and production from a single source

The Thüringen site was established in 2005. The glass, timber and steel building provides 1,600 m² of space for production, assembly and administration.

A ground-level, enclosed loading zone makes goods handling easier. The production hall houses modern multi-axis CNC machining centers.

We continue to develop all our equipment to this day. We now build laminating and cutting machines in many versions and sell them worldwide. Most machines are adapted to customers’ processes and partially automated. 3D printers help us respond quickly to customer requirements.
