Rotary Transfer Machining.
75 machines, running 24/7 at mass-production volume: the manufacturing model that has made Gebrema a long-term supplier to Europe's most demanding OEMs since 1950.
A rotary transfer machine feeds bar stock through a rotating turret of sequential cutting stations. Each station performs one operation: turning, drilling, threading, slotting, chamfering. The part completes a full cycle with every rotation of the turret. The result is a finished, dimensionally correct component, produced at high volume at a unit cost CNC turning cannot match.
Process mastery you cannot buy off the shelf
Gebrema operates 75 MAG-EUBAMA and equivalent rotary transfer machines, all continuously refined in-house over 75 years. These are not standard machines running standard processes. Every machine in the fleet has been modified, recalibrated and optimised by Gebrema's own engineers to maximise uptime, reduce cycle time and hold tolerances without constant operator intervention. That process mastery took decades to build.
The machine runs. Your line does not stop.
Most precision turned parts manufacturers need continuous operator attention to hold quality at volume. When the operator is not there, at night, over the weekend, during holidays, the machine either stops or output quality degrades. Gebrema's in-house process refinement eliminates that dependency. Tolerances are held automatically, shift after shift, without supervision. This is the technical foundation of Gebrema's supply reliability. It is not a claim, it is an engineering outcome, and it is why customer partnerships last over 20 years.
What rotary transfer delivers
- Volume from 500,000 to 250,000,000+ parts per year, per customer.
- Standard diameter range ⌀3–11 mm, the sweet spot for connectors, spacers, contact pins and fastener-type parts.
- Nights and weekends run with no operator dependency: Monday's parts identical to Friday's.
- Dedicated machine allocation: one or more machines reserved exclusively for your production, never shared, never queued.
