They have to adapt to new customers and to parts that are outside their specialization. In order to increase its own efficiency, reduce costs and position itself more competitively, Schwab CNC Metallbearbeitung is increasingly focusing on digitalization and automation, for example with <a href=\"https:\/\/spanflug.de\/en\/make\/\">Spanflug MAKE<\/a>. The quoting software enables the CNC machine shop to automatically calculate manufacturing times and costs, to create quotes with just a few mouse clicks and to determine the most economical manufacturing process.   <\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><em>Picture: Markus Schwab (left) and Reiner Schwab (right)<\/em><\/p>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t<div class=\"col-12 col-md snk-textMedia-media snk-textMedia-media_fill\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"snk-media snk-media_image snk-media_image_fill\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" data-src=\"https:\/\/spanflug.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/spanflug-anwenderbericht-schwab-10-RGBsmall.png\" alt=\"Spanflug MAKE - Anwenderbericht Schwab CNC\" title=\"spanflug-anwenderbericht-schwab-10-RGBsmall\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" class=\"lazyload\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 2000px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 2000\/1333;\" \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t<section class=\" snk-section snk-section_slimOnSingle\" >\n\t\t<div class=\"container\">\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"snk-section-headline\">The company<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"row snk-textColumns\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col col-12 col-md-6 snk-textColumn\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"snk-textBlock\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<!-- <div class=\"snk-textBlock_copy\"> -->\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"textBlock-copy\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>&#8220;The market and the parts we manufacture for our customers change from year to year,&#8221; observes Markus Schwab, who runs <a href=\"https:\/\/cnc-fraesen-metallbearbeitung.de\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Schwab CNC Metallbearbeitung eK<\/a> together with his father Reiner. When Reiner Schwab founded the company in 2010 in Rot am See, Baden-W\u00fcrttemberg, Germany, the order intake was very homogeneous. &#8220;We mainly manufactured series parts for combustion engines and for the automotive aftermarket,&#8221; he reports. However, the industry has changed massively in recent years as a result of electromobility\u2013and with it the order intake for suppliers like Schwab: the demand for pre-series parts increased. In addition, the company received more RFQs for parts for the mechanical engineering industry.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<!-- <\/div> -->\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col col-12 col-md-6 snk-textColumn\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"snk-textBlock\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<!-- <div class=\"snk-textBlock_copy\"> -->\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"textBlock-copy\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>\u201cWhile series production focuses on price and maximum quality, pre-series production requires flexibility above all,\u201d says Markus Schwab, describing the situation. However, demand from the automotive industry is currently declining significantly and, according to the machine shop, a particularly large number of development projects are currently being stopped or postponed. For Schwab, this means that the company must position itself more broadly in order to be able to react quickly to the rapidly changing market.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<!-- <\/div> -->\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/section>\n\n\t\t<section class=\" snk-section snk-section_slimOnSingle\" >\n\t\t<div class=\"container\">\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"snk-section-headline\">Tapping safely into new worlds<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"row snk-textColumns\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col col-12 col-md-6 snk-textColumn\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"snk-textBlock\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<!-- <div class=\"snk-textBlock_copy\"> -->\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"textBlock-copy\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>&#8220;In future, in addition to large projects with complex parts or series, we want to grow the share of smaller orders,&#8221; says Managing Director Markus Schwab, explaining his strategy. &#8220;Competition is increasing. For us, this means manufacturing parts with which we have hardly any experience. So we have to get out of our comfort zone.&#8221; One of the challenges of this new approach is in quoting, in particular the ability to win the customer order with a precise quote that is in line with the market and competitive, and at the same time profitable for the supplier. &#8220;Even for parts that lie outside the company&#8217;s own specialization, the calculation should be sound and reliable&#8221;.   <\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<!-- <\/div> -->\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col col-12 col-md-6 snk-textColumn\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"snk-textBlock\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<!-- <div class=\"snk-textBlock_copy\"> -->\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"textBlock-copy\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>The implementation of digital technologies offers immense potential to increase efficiency, reduce costs and to stay competitive.

The results with the standard calculation settings were already very close to our operational reality, and we finetuned the rest to match our needs using the slider controls.&#8221; For series parts that are usually run on the machines, Schwab CNC has slightly longer setup times.
