From an engineering office to a specialist in autonomous transport technology – the future began almost 50 years ago!
The family-owned company "Daum und Partner Maschinenbau GmbH" was founded in 1975 as an engineering office. The range of services was soon expanded to include the business areas of special machine construction, contract manufacturing and glass technology.
In 1993, a new exciting area was added: As one of the pioneers, dpm began to develop and manufacture "automated guided vehicles".
Decades of research and development as well as the experience gained from hundreds of projects pay off. Today, "robot technology" and "autonomous systems" are on everyone's mind. Our expertise in products, development and manufacturing in this forward-looking business area has become our most important mainstay due to the growing demands on logistics and assembly systems. The managing director of the family business is Mark-Oliver Daum. More than 60 employees work at the site in Aichstetten (Allgäu) on products and systems for industrial customers all over the world. The main focus is on AGV systems for pre- and final assembly lines in the automotive industry.
Reliability, honesty and dependability: As an owner-managed family business, the trust of our customers in our reliability is particularly important to us. In order to earn this trust, we attach great importance to direct routes, fast interactions and a human connection to you. The close bond and loyalty of our customers shows that we are "on the right course" and that values such as sustainability, humanity and a high level of quality awareness are paying off.
We would be happy to show you our holistic solutions and possibilities for optimising the production lines in your company that our holistic solutions offer – even for the flexible expansion of your production facilities.
