It established its international reputation in the sheetmetal working industry through its notching and punching machine portfolio . Today , around 20,000 of its notching machines are in use around the world .

However , it is the continuous development and integration of new ideas and pragmatic values that made Boschert the worldwide patent-holder of the folding joint . The manufacturer , based in Germany ’ s Black Forest , has also set new standards in safety chuck techniques . Quality , accuracy and strong production values are part of its sheet metal heritage .
Fifteen years ago , Boschert established a joint venture company in a new factory in Greece with Gizelis SA .

After acquiring a further holding in 2016 in French company AMB Picot , a specialist in roll bending machines based on the three-roll principle , Boschert has further extended its range of products and services .
