LVL Performance Components

Success lies in simplicity, and the customer is king. Do you need a product made from laminated veneer lumber (LVL)? You are in the right hands with us.

Tailor-made for the highest loads

Technological progress helps us find tailor-made solutions for our customers every day. Whatever the industry – from construction, automotive and aviation to protection and defence technology – laminated veneer lumber is used in many ways thanks to its advantages.

LVL Performance Components have extremely homogeneous properties. The structures within the components can be aligned precisely with the direction of the acting forces. In most cases they are combined with other materials such as steel, carbon fibre or plastics, engineered as so-called sandwich components and used wherever they are needed.

From development to testing

Laminated veneer lumber board

Development

During development we consider, for example, temperature ranges, select the right adhesives, define moisture and acid resistance, and verify compatibility with the composite materials.

Production

On special CNC milling machines, the products are finished with diamond-tipped tool heads – to an accuracy of ± 0.1 mm, in wood! Thanks to this precision, further processing steps are straightforward.

Quality testing

Do your LVL products need a load test for quality control? No problem. On request, we additionally test the products to DIN, ISO, ASME, SAE, BSI or AFNOR standards.

The path to your product

  1. 01

    Your enquiry

    Send us your enquiry for the LVL (laminated veneer lumber) component you need, with all technical requirements, quantities and delivery periods. Directly by email, or feel free to call us first.

  2. 02

    Project discussion

    Schößwendter Advanced Technologies always strives to offer a solution that fits you. Together we discuss the key points of your LVL Performance Component, online or in person.

  3. 03

    Prototyping

    Because the products are complex and individual, we build a prototype before quoting and check it for feasibility and against the customer’s requirements. This allows us to guarantee reliable production.

  4. 04

    Production

    Once you have inspected the prototype and approved the quotation, your product is manufactured in the required quantity and quality and delivered to you by Schößwendter Advanced Technologies.
