Atomit Durawid GmbH, based in Plettenberg, Germany, specialises in special tools for a wide range of sectors. To help provide customers with a complete service, from development to production, the company has invested in its first Vollmer grinding machine, a VGrind Infinity Linear.

Founded in 1987 and acquired in 2024 by managing directors Sergej Odenbach and Dietrich Strekert, Atomit Durawid employs around 20 people. Its product portfolio includes finishing heads, profile tools, turning inserts and rotary tools, serving more than 200 active customers across industries including valve production, sheet metal processing and toolmaking.

“Our customers expect flexible, individual solutions – this is exactly where we see our strength as a specialist in special tools,” explains Odenbach. “In some areas, we wanted to take the next technological step. That’s why we made a conscious decision in favour of Vollmer.”

Atomit Durawid has been using the VGrind Infinity Linear since December 2025, opening new possibilities for the production of rotating tools while laying the foundations for further automation and greater manufacturing independence.

The company says Vollmer’s application expertise and close support were key factors in the investment decision. The new technology has also been well received by employees, who particularly value its ease of use and potential for future development.

For Atomit Durawid, the partnership also supports its commitment to regional sourcing and high-quality German manufacturing technology.

“What we have particularly appreciated so far is the helpfulness and closeness of the cooperation,” states Strekert.

Andreas Nitka, area sales manager at the Vollmer Group, adds: “Entering the market with a VGrind infinity linear is a logical step for Atomit Durawid and provides a strong basis for further expanding its special tool production.”
