Electron beam welding, hardening, and additive manufacturing systems and contract services
pro-beam Group manufactures and operates electron beam equipment for precision industrial applications—welding, hardening, surface treatment, and metal additive manufacturing. The company runs a dual business model: contract manufacturing services and licensed machine sales. Current hiring is accelerating across engineering (29 open roles) and manufacturing (13), with a substantial intern pipeline (18 positions), indicating scaling of production capacity and technical depth. Active projects span test-stand buildout, process optimization, and new market entry, while pain points center on cost-quality-risk trade-offs and SAP integration friction—typical constraints in capital equipment and contract manufacturing.
Notable leadership hires: Quality Assurance Team Lead, Logistics Team Lead
pro-beam Group is a publicly traded industrial equipment manufacturer based in Gilching, Germany, founded in 1974. The company holds a global position in electron beam technology, serving automotive, aerospace, semiconductor, energy, and research sectors. Their business operates on two tracks: selling electron beam systems to customers for in-house manufacturing, and providing contract manufacturing services using their own equipment. The technology stack reflects a manufacturing operations enterprise: SAP (SD, MM, PS modules), Siemens industrial automation (SINUMERIK, TIA Portal), and Microsoft cloud infrastructure (Azure, Power Apps, Intune). With 201–500 employees, pro-beam positions itself as a development partner for process optimization alongside equipment supply.
Electron beam technology for welding, hardening, surface coating, microdrilling, and metal additive manufacturing (electron beam melting and wire electron beam additive manufacturing).
Dual model: contract manufacturing services using proprietary electron beam equipment, and direct sale of electron beam systems for customers to operate in-house.
