Technology & Innovation
As a former trial foundry for Bühler AG, innovation and constant improvement in processes are of utmost importance to us. Customer proximity is not just shown in quality or technology but is a basic prerequisite for us. We always strive for solutions that offer additional value to our customers technically, logistically as well as in monetary terms.
Core activities
- DGS conducts cross-site technology development activities for products, processes and materials that are globally coordinated by our headquarters in Switzerland. The ultimate goal is to implement new developments into production as soon as possible before global roll-out to all locations.
- n order to maintain our competitiveness and innovative strength DGS invests approximately 10% of the turnover in equipment and technologies every year, and operates an international research and development department that is driving forward innovations in close collaboration with customers.
- Together with key customers and suppliers we develop and test new alloys and processes. Within our organization we conduct regular workshops for joint promotion of ideas and continuous improvements and work closely with universities on practical-oriented development projects and diploma theses.
