WILVO x GFM.

In September 2020 GFM was acquired by WILVO. GFM is an absolute top player in the field of CNC machining and is a key supplier to large OEMs nationally and abroad. With this addition WILVO can serve OEMs even better in respect of complete assemblies.

They specialize in specific machine parts up to ‘shoebox’ size. Machining of less than a hundredth of a millimeter is the rule rather than the exception for GFM. Like WILVO, GFM is located in Bergeijk where they operate from an ultra-modern production facility with an impressive fleet of machinery.

Services

GFM’s services are focused on client orders of specific machine parts in the form of CNC Turning, CNC Milling, Post-Production and Quality Control. In addition, they supply single units, series and repetitive series. Because the fleet of machinery can operate completely independently and unmanned 24/7, GFM offers more than adequate reliability of supply. That is necessary, after all, a promise is a promise.
