About us
At DUNKES, we design and manufacture hydraulic presses, automated press lines, and tool-handling systems in the true tradition of German engineering—precise, reliable, and uncompromising.
Every machine is engineered specifically for your application, because no two production challenges are the same.
For more than 50 years, DUNKES has been a trusted name in press technology across Europe and around the world. Our expertise in precision mechanics, control engineering, and complex forming processes enables us to deliver systems that operate consistently and reliably for decades—not just for a few years.
Whether in aerospace, automotive, industrial manufacturing, defense, or emerging technologies, manufacturers choose DUNKES because they know exactly what to expect:
German-quality workmanship, engineered for long-term performance and supported by experts who truly understand their processes.
To better support our global customers, we work with Macrodyne in North America—a strategic partnership that expands our engineering, service, and integration capabilities while maintaining the same high DUNKES quality standards without compromise.
Our growth, our many long-standing customer relationships, and our reputation in the industry are built on the same principles:
Precision. Integrity. And an uncompromising focus on your production results.
From Standalone Presses to Fully Automated Press lines—Built with German Engineering Precision
DUNKES combines decades of experience in German machine building with state-of-the-art development tools such as 3D modeling, finite element analysis (FEA), and advanced control technology. The result is hydraulic presses and automated systems engineered for maximum reliability, process stability, and performance.
Our engineering and manufacturing teams design and build custom hydraulic presses up to 80,000 kN, tool and die handling systems up to 100 tons, and fully integrated press lines including all required auxiliary equipment. Every system is precisely tailored to your process requirements, industry standards, and long-term production goals.
For customers in North America, our partnership with Macrodyne ensures seamless project execution, local integration support, and responsive service—while every core machine continues to be engineered and manufactured to uncompromising German quality standards.
