<\/div>

ERCHINGER AG is a true Tuttlingen veteran company. Founded more than 70 years ago as a family business, we are now a company of the Swiss WISTAMA AG. This gives us a broad network with access to the latest technologies.<\/p>\n

Our core of around 30 employees are regularly trained and highly qualified. Experienced technicians, CNC specialists and surgical mechanics are the basis for a guaranteed top-notch quality which earned us domestic and international recognition and appreciation.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

<\/div>

Due to our lean hierarchy, we are flexible and responsive. Our appreciative cooperation ensures high motivation and willingness to perform in the entire team.<\/p>\n

We realize and manufacture instruments for our customers in the fields of spine, proctology, and surgery. Our spectrum ranges from the technical implementation of standard instruments to highly complex, customer-specific solutions.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>
