Germany has long been one of the toughest industrial markets anywhere. There, precision, productivity, reliability, technical support and lasting quality aren't selling points — they're baseline expectations. That's precisely why NKO Anfasmaschinen GmbH exists.

As part of the Richtr Group, the company is our German arm and a central player in rolling out advanced beveling technology across Germany and the wider European market. The mission is straightforward: put innovative, high-performance beveling solutions within easier reach of German manufacturers, welding shops, steel fabricators and industrial plants.

WHAT WE OFFER THE GERMAN MARKET?

German industry wants technology that combines top efficiency, engineering precision, operational reliability, modern automation, long machine life and strong technical backing. That's exactly the space NKO Anfasmaschinen GmbH occupies. Our systems cover steel fabrication, welding prep, heavy industrial production, shipbuilding, energy applications, stainless-steel processing and automated production settings. The portfolio spans portable, automatic and high-speed bevelers for flat steel and pipe, engineered for demanding operations and hard materials such as stainless steel, Hardox and high-strength grades.

STRATEGIC PARTNERSHIP WITH EWM

A key milestone in our German strategy has been building cooperation with EWM, one of Europe's leading welding-technology makers. Modern welding production isn't only about the weld itself; flawless weld quality begins well before the first arc, with precise edge preparation and professional beveling. Pairing EWM welding technology with NKO beveling systems creates real synergy for today's manufacturers — enabling complete welding-preparation packages, joint customer presentations, live demonstrations, technology consulting, integrated production workflows and professional support. The aim isn't just to sell machines; it's to help customers optimize their entire production process.

DEMONSTRATION CENTERS AND LIVE EXPERIENCE

We're convinced industrial technology should be seen in action. Catalogs and spec sheets matter, but real-world performance matters more, which is why demonstration centers and practical presentations sit at the heart of our approach. Customers can watch live machine demos, test on their own material, run production simulations, get technology consulting and operator training, and compare different beveling solutions side by side. That hands-on experience makes the gap between ordinary equipment and genuinely professional beveling technology obvious.

GERMANY AS A HUB FOR EUROPEAN GROWTH

Germany remains one of Europe's most important industrial markets and a cornerstone of the Richtr Group's long-term plan. Through NKO Anfasmaschinen GmbH we keep strengthening customer support, service availability, technical consulting, demonstrations, strategic partnerships and industrial cooperation across Europe — while continuing to invest in new beveling technology, automation, digitalization, modern manufacturing concepts and the expansion of our international network. Industry is changing fast, and manufacturers need quicker, smarter, more efficient solutions than ever. Our ambition is clear: to keep pushing the limits of professional beveling technology in Germany, across Europe and worldwide.
