Cam-Controlled Turning
Why Mayenberger Group?
Your partner for cam-controlled turned parts
Mayenberger combines 70 years of machining experience with one of the most capable conventional cam-controlled turning operations in the region. Cam-controlled automatic lathes are most economical where shortest cycle times, high repeat accuracy and stable processes across large batch sizes matter. That is exactly what our Plant 1 is designed for: process-oriented systems, well-established production lines and modern optical inspection machines ensure an optimum of quantity and quality.
Your benefits
- In our Plant 1, five complete production lines with well over 250 conventional cam-controlled turning and finishing machines work for our customers.
- We manufacture parts to drawing such as nuts with every type of thread (with or without oversize), press-fit bushings, threaded bushings, bolts, sleeves, pistons, knurled parts as well as turned parts to DIN standards.
- Our materials are primarily brass, aluminium, steel and stainless steel – on request also in lead-free versions.
- All surface treatments such as hardening and tempering, grinding and vibratory finishing are standard for us.
- On request, ready to install including downstream processing and assembly.

Here's what we offer
Large-series capacity
Over 250 machines in 5 production lines
Once set up, cam-controlled automatic lathes achieve extremely short cycle times – ideal for medium to large series with consistent quality across the entire batch.
Material expertise
Brass, aluminium, steel, stainless steel
Proven standard materials – on request also in lead-free versions, for example for applications with increased requirements on material composition.
Quality & inspection
Optical measuring technology & process-oriented systems
Dimensional accuracy and repeatability are ensured by modern optical inspection machines – integrated into the running production process, not just at the end.

Downstream processing
On request, Mayenberger supplies not just the turned part but the ready-to-install component. Heat treatment, surface finishing, honing, deep-hole drilling, marking and packaging – you get one central scope of work, one contact person and a continuous quality chain.
Whatever we do not cover in-house is handled by long-standing partner companies in our immediate region – qualified, certified and with short distances.
Your benefits
- Heat treatments: hardening, hardening and tempering, case hardening
- Surface treatments: coating, grinding, blasting
- Further operations: deep-hole drilling, honing, welding
- Marking: laser, etching foil, engraving
- Packaging – on request in your customer-specific packaging
- Supplier network with short distances for processes we do not cover in-house – qualified, certified, long-established
- Automated 100% inspection on modern camera systems for extensive series parts
- Fully air-conditioned measuring rooms with contour measuring machines, profile projectors, 3D coordinate measuring machines and roughness testers
- Initial sample inspection reports according to VDA and PPAP, coordinated individually with you
FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions about Cam-Controlled Turning
When is cam-controlled turning more economical than CNC?
For medium to large series with stable geometry, cam-controlled automatic lathes play to their strengths: once set up, they achieve very short cycle times with high repeat accuracy – often unbeatable in unit costs over the entire production run.
What materials do you machine?
Primarily brass, aluminium, steel and stainless steel. On request also in lead-free versions.
What parts do you typically manufacture?
Nuts with all common thread types (with or without oversize), press-fit bushings, threaded bushings, bolts, sleeves, pistons, knurled parts as well as turned parts to DIN standards – as parts to drawing or according to standard.
What downstream processing is possible?
Hardening and tempering, grinding and vibratory finishing are part of our standard scope. On request, we supply parts ready to install including assembly.
How do you ensure quality?
Through process-oriented systems and modern optical inspection machines integrated directly into the production lines.
