CAD
CAD enables us to implement customer requirements directly in our designs. On the one hand, Knapp-Engineering offers the possibility of optimizing existing components or reproducing them with absolute conformity, and on the other hand, the possibility of developing new concepts that are adapted to customer wishes and requirements. In addition, our development team offers you the option of converting existing construction plans in paper form into an exact CAD plan. The digitization and optimization of your construction drawings not only has the effect of archiving, but also the possibility of working with personnel trained and competent in this field. In this segment, Knapp-Engineering not only offers automated conversion of your plans, but also an analysis that can reveal any weak points and inconsistencies and thus lead to a sustainable improvement of your product. We will be happy to answer any questions you may have in the field of CAD technology and digitization.
Statics and Manufacturing Calculation
In the field of statics and strength calculations, we are committed to optimizing our products and ensuring the highest possible level of safety using the methods of technical mechanics. The Knapp-Engineering team uses state-of-the-art methods in this segment and looks forward to working with private and major customers. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact us.
The interaction of the above-mentioned fields of activity enables Knapp-Engineering to provide comprehensive project management, from conception to implementation, from a single source. The advantage of this is that processes are carried out in-house from start to finish, which greatly simplifies communication in the event of any problems or spontaneous changes. Our concept results in a simple but competent and precise structure that sets virtually no limits to the implementation of customer projects. For quotations and questions, please contact us in person, by post or by telephone.

Arc and fusion welding processes practiced in our company are:
- MIG- / MAG- / WIG-WELDS
- PLASMA- / LASER- / STUD WELDING
The chosen welding technique depends on various requirements. On the one hand, the practice of metal construction has various requirements that determine the technique to be selected. These can be: The accessibility of the welding point, the welding position, the structure and the required geometry of the component as well as the quality requirements placed on the same. Secondly, the selection is made on the basis of economic factors. These include Quantity (large series or smaller series), individual costs of the welding technology per component and with regard to the required "Human Resources“.
Steel and Stainless Steel Constructions
Steel and stainless steel construction of all kinds. We realize your ideas as far as possible. In addition to the great commitment of our team, we use state-of-the-art technology and methods to realize our customers' wishes.
