Areas of application

The areas of application for our shims, shim washers, and laminated sheet metal parts are very diverse. Wherever equipment, turbines, machines, and engines have to be aligned and adjusted horizontally or vertically, or gaps between parts and components have to be filled, our shims and underlays are used. To illustrate the wide range of applications for our products, here are some important sample applications.
