Pioneers in agricultural engineering - Customised components for the agricultural machinery industry

BUTTING's headquarters are located in the picturesque expanses of the countryside, where the air smells of fresh earth and life pulsates in harmony with nature. Here, where the proximity to nature and agriculture is deeply rooted both geographically and in the corporate culture, BUTTING has made a name for itself over the decades as an innovator and problem solver in various sectors - including the agricultural machinery industry.

An impressive collaboration between BUTTING and a respected German manufacturer of agricultural machinery shows how the company's strengths come to the fore in the customised production of components. The manufacturer faced the tricky challenge of ensuring a homogeneous distribution of delta ferrite and permeability on the mower of its forage harvester to avoid potential problems with the metal detector. BUTTING was ready to offer a customised solution that met the customer's exacting requirements, using state-of-the-art manufacturing technology and a comprehensive knowledge of materials.

An outstanding example of BUTTING's adaptability was the production of sample housings in a small series for the agricultural machinery manufacturer. The main objective was to ensure that the material of the mower had the desired magnetic properties. This required precise material selection and controlled heat treatments throughout the manufacturing process.

The process began with test trials in Knesebeck to ensure a homogeneous distribution of pre-material and weld seam. After successful testing, tubes were selected and cut into housings with specific fixed lengths on the company's own laser system for delivery to the agricultural machinery manufacturer.

Patrick Schwarzbach, the project manager for customised components at BUTTING, enthusiastically emphasises the company's flexibility: "BUTTING develops individual product solutions that are precisely tailored to the needs and requirements of the customer. From prototypes to small, medium or large series production, we offer a wide range of solutions that fit perfectly into the respective area of application."

This agricultural project is another impressive example of how BUTTING stands for more than just high-quality pipes. BUTTING's customised solutions ensure that agricultural machinery can continue to work smoothly and efficiently in the future. In this way, BUTTING helps to ensure that agriculture always remains at the cutting edge of technology.
