Why Achenbach rolling mills run for centuries: A commitment to longevity and durability

Achenbach, a name that has symbolized consistency and quality in rolling mill technology for centuries, once again underlines its commitment to longevity and durability.

The secret behind the long service life of Achenbach rolling mills lies in the careful testing and optimization of their key components. These are regularly and intensively tested for their durability and resistance. An outstanding example of this is the load test carried out on the setting device for OPTIMILL Foil Rolling Mill, in which a simulation is carried out over 20 years. Despite this enormous strain, the component shows no signs of fatigue. These rigorous tests ensure that Achenbach rolling mills meet the highest standards and offer their customers reliable solutions over the long term.

Another impressive testimony to the longevity of Achenbach is the oldest rolling mill still in operation, dating back to 1920. Despite its advanced age and numerous modernizations, it is still used today for the production of the highest quality flat rolled products. This continuous use is proof of the robustness and reliability of Achenbach rolling mills over generations.

With a heritage dating back to 1920 and a clear commitment to innovation and quality, Achenbach remains a leader in rolling mill technology and a trusted partner for customers worldwide.
