Industrial machinery for textiles, films, and composite production
Lindauer DORNIER manufactures weaving machines, film stretching systems, and composite production equipment—serving textile, packaging, battery, and semiconductor industries. The tech stack is deeply industrial: CAD, CNC, TIA Portal (Siemens PLC), WinCC (SCADA), PROFINET, and SAP for ERP. Hiring is concentrated in manufacturing and engineering roles, with notably high intern counts, suggesting apprenticeship-heavy workforce development typical of German industrial manufacturers. Internal focus on energy consumption optimization and supply-chain compliance reflects margin pressure in capital equipment and stricter regulatory environments.
