About

ZES Technic stands as a premier global Repair and Refurbishment (R&R) center specializing in the energy, industrial, and oil & gas sectors. At the heart of its technological prowess is an 8 kW Laser Cladding system, which applies specialized alloys to metal surfaces to significantly enhance resistance against wear, corrosion, and extreme temperatures. This robotic 6-axis system offers a sustainable alternative to traditional methods by reducing material waste and energy consumption while handling components up to 20 tons and 7 meters in length. Furthermore, ZES Technic utilizes Laser Hardening to achieve surface hardness of up to 65 HRC with minimal thermal deformation, ensuring the integrity of the base material. The facility's CNC Machining Station complements these services with a processing capacity of up to Ø 7000 mm, delivering precision grinding and milling with IT 6 dimensional accuracy and Ra 0.5 surface finishes. Beyond its workshop capabilities, ZES Technic is a leader in wind energy solutions, providing comprehensive gearbox and main bearing refurbishments according to Schaeffler standards for major manufacturers like Vestas and Bosch Rexroth. The company also offers advanced field services, including drone-based blade inspections and high-capacity induction heating. Operating in over 8 countries and continuously investing in the future—such as its planned 7 MW gearbox load test unit—ZES Technic's vision is to drive technical excellence and a circular economy within the global heavy industry and renewable energy landscape.
