The company HAZET was established in 1868 by Hermann Zerver.
The brand "HAZET" has its roots in the initials of the founder, the H of Hermann, the Z of Zerver.
HAZET is in family possession for five generations already.
The plant I in Remscheid is one of the most advanced in Europe. From
the forging plant to the CNC-directed production, up-todate technology
matched with unrivalled experience, accompanies every step of the
production.
The Plant II Heinsberg, a factory built according to the most modern specifications, is situated in the triangle of Germany-Belgium-Netherlands.
With
regard to the European market, the modern and spacious logistic centre,
the electroplating station as well as high-precision machines for the
fabrication of round parts (e.g. sockets) are located there.
In the beginning of 2001, the HAZET plant III at Remscheid was equipped with one of the most modern computer-controlled powder coating facilities in Germany. Furthermore,
investments in a welding robot as well as in a fully-automatic laser
cutting facility guarantee the continuous top quality in sheet metal
working. The product range comprises varied sheet metal working
processes as well as the fabrication of the famous tool trolleys
"Assistent".
Development and Construction
With
the help of modern CAD-computers and "high-end-software" highly
qualified engineers develop and design tools as well as production
resources. The data obtained is used in several respects, e.g. for the
designing of samples on short term or for the communication with our
customers and suppliers via data line.
The practical use of
tools is simulated in virtual environments, or NC-data for machine tools
is generated which facilitates the repeated fabrication of forging dies
with an accuracy of 100%. This guarantees consistently high quality.
Construction of Tools and Forging Dies
Use
of the most modern technology in the HAZET tool and forging die
construction. The milling data is directly transmitted via a CAD/CAM
interface to a high speed milling machine (HSC) whose spindle mills the
forging contours into the hard metal of the new die with highest
precision and at a speed of 42,000 r.p.m.
The Forge
The
exactly fabricated dies are used in hydraulic short-stroke quick
forging hammers. With a "simple" piece of steel, experienced forgers
start the fabrication of the HAZET quality tools
CNC-machines
From
the simple drilling machine up to automatically controlled CNC turning
and milling centres, HAZET’s complex machinery allows each kind of
metal-removing procedure.
Electroplating
The
finishing step for each tool is the treatment in an
environmentally-acceptable galvanic chromium-nickel coating installation
which lends the HAZET quality tools a noble look and also protects them
lastingly from corrosion.
Sheet Metal Working
With
the help of a modern laser cutter HAZET copes with the permanently
changing variety of products. Fully automatic welding robots are used
for the fabrication of big lot sizes.
Powder Coating
In
a powder coating centre conceived according to the last state of
technology, even small lot sizes of workpieces can be coated efficiently
with all possible RAL-colours. Even if the retooling periods are very
short, the coating process is nearly waste-free. This saves our
environment
Logistics
Integrated
systems for the distribution of the products combined with the most
modern technology in the field of logistics, e.g. computer supported
belt conveyors and packaging places, guarantee the rapid dispatch of the
HAZET quality products to our customers.
