Lund Maskinfabrik was founded in 1891, and today we specialise in high-quality turned components. Turned components in dimensions from Ø5 to Ø120 mm are our core competence.
Lund Maskinfabrik A/S covers the entire process, from precision-turned and milled components to fully assembled and marked solutions – with CNC machining at its core, supplemented by assembly and laser engraving.
Today, the fifth generation runs the company’s day-to-day operations. Loyal, long-serving employees, continuous investment in new technology, a modern machine park – and not least our experience built up over more than 135 years – make us a reliable partner.
Much has changed since the beginning of the last century. One thing, however, has remained the same: the customer’s wish to receive the best product – on time.
