About us
History
Company Formation
The origins of the company are associated with 77 Zapłocie Duże Street in Bielsko-Biała and Mieczysław Michasiów, who established a locksmith workshop at this address, affiliated with the Guild of Various Crafts in Bielsko-Biała. The workshop was initially housed in two rooms, one of which had previously served as a garage and the other as a utility room. The company employed three people who produced small industrial fittings on conventional lathes. Production gradually increased, with the purchase of necessary machine tools.
Change of Headquarters and Transformation into a Manufacturing Enterprise
Due to dynamic development, the company moved to two buildings formerly owned by BEFAMA – the Bielsko-Biała Textile Machinery Factory, located at 130 Piekarska Street in Bielsko-Biała. At this time, the name METAL-MAX appeared for the first time, with the full name being the Production, Trade, and Service Enterprise METAL-MAX Mieczysław Michasiów. Employment increased, and production was launched in three shifts. Thanks to received grants, conventional machines were replaced with CNC machines, initiating long-term modernization of production, including for export.
Grant from the Phare Fund for the Implementation of ISO 9001:2003 Control System
Purchase of Modern CNC Machines
In the face of the economic crisis, the company had to choose between two development paths: either to base on the existing machine park and maintain current production or to take the next step and expand production capabilities to offer more types of very high-quality components. To achieve this ambitious goal, the company decided to purchase the most modern five-axis machining units.
First Grant from the European Union
Purchase of modern machines, including the first ZEISS Contura G2 Aktiv measuring machine
Commencement of Work on a New Production Hall and Office Building Another grant from the European Union Purchase of the first five-axis machine
This decision was made to invest in modern production means, expand the company’s offer, and develop research and development activities.
Next Stage of Company Expansion
During this period, the area between the production halls was roofed, creating a warehouse. An office building with social facilities for employees was also added.
Transformation into a Limited Liability Company
The company transitioned from a sole proprietorship to a limited liability company, changing its name to Michasiów METAL-MAX Sp. z o.o.
Components, machine parts,machining, welding, and assembly
The main goal of our company is to produce high-quality components, machine parts, and provide services in the field of machining, welding, and assembly.
Cast iron pieces, forgings, steel, non-ferrous metals, stainless steel
Our range of activities includes the production of cast iron pieces, forgings, steel, non-ferrous metals, and stainless steel with any shape and complexity. The mass production process takes place on modern numerically controlled machining centers (turning, drilling-milling). Small elements are produced on lathes with a bar feeder, while small-batch production takes place on conventional machine tools (lathes, milling machines, threading machines, broaching machines, gear hobbing machines, cylindrical and surface grinders). We perform gas-shielded welding of elements. We build a competitive advantage by introducing new solutions in both products and their manufacturing processes.
Components for compressors and refrigerators, agricultural, printing, and paper machines, and high-pressure devices
For many years, we have been cooperating with metal industry companies in Germany, England, Sweden, Ireland, and Switzerland, manufacturing precise components for compressors and refrigerators, as well as agricultural, printing, and paper machines. The entire production cycle, up to the shipment to the customer, is carried out according to high requirements specified in the ISO 9001:2015 standard. Detailed quality control at every stage of production ensures the highest level of product execution. Currently, we employ over 50 people. We hold ISO 9001:2015 certification. We are a member of the Beskid Economic Chamber and the Silesian Business Club.
