New Possibilities for Curved Stainless Steel Strips
As a specialist in continuously roll-formed stainless steel strips with a concave camber, we are strategically expanding our portfolio to include in-house coating technologies, the processing of pre-coated materials, and new options in contouring and punching. This enables us to deliver even greater functionality, precision, and customized design solutions – all from a single source.
Our production capabilities cover material thicknesses up to 0.5 mm and widths up to 30 mm – precisely profiled and reliably processed.
Pre-Coated Material – Optimized Properties from the Start
Pre-coating is carried out in-house. This ensures maximum process reliability, reproducible quality, and precisely tailored functional properties.
Depending on requirements, the coating can fulfill various functions:
- Friction optimization (improved sliding behavior, defined friction coefficients)
- Electrical insulation
- Adhesion function (e.g., for downstream bonding processes)
- Decorative surface finishing
- Wear reduction
This allows surface properties to be specifically adapted to the intended application.
Precise Contour and Punching Capabilities
We also offer new options in further processing for ready-to-install components:
- Customized stamping of strip ends in customer-specific contours
- Punching of holes and functional openings according to drawings or specifications
The result: precise and cost-efficient components – exactly tailored to your application and manufactured within our defined material range of up to 0.5 mm thickness and 30 mm width.
Proven Profiling Expertise with Re-Coiling Effect
Of course, we continue to manufacture our proven continuously roll-formed stainless steel strips with concave camber.
Upon request, we can also integrate a defined re-coiling effect after cutting to length – ensuring optimal functionality, controlled tension, and easy handling in subsequent applications.
Your Partner for Innovative Strip Solutions
With these portfolio enhancements, we reinforce our commitment to delivering innovative and customized solutions for a wide range of applications – from material selection and profiling to functionally integrated surface finishes.
Technical Specifications at a Glance:
- Material thickness: up to 0.5 mm
- Material width: up to 30 mm
- Continuously roll-formed design with concave camber
- Optional re-coiling effect
Covid-19 protective masks produced nationally
Face masks or medically certified respiratory masks: As a wire-coating company, we can support you in both cases. For the use of wire in face masks without medical approval, we recommend white coated aluminum wire with a diameter of 1.5 mm. We can also supply the right wire for medically certified respiratory protection masks. Please contact us directly.
More details can be found here: Wire Coating – Medical Guidewires
Coatings for medical guide-wires
For medical guide-wires, we offer coatings on raw materials such as stainless steel, nitinol and titanium. Further details can be found here under Wire Coating – Medical Guide-wires. We look forward to your task!
40 years anniversary of the IHK
In April 1976 the two Steves not only founded their company “Apple”, an entrepreneur also began his work in Bad Arolsen. Dr. Volker Meywald and his team at the Christmas party and with well-wisher Dr. Sacher from the IHK Korbach.
The company Dr. Meywald GmbH & Co. KG is now in the fourth generation of Björn Meywald with operations manager Wilhelm Erlemann together with Dr. Volker Meywald continued. It offers strip, rope and wire coatings as semi-tools for architecture, industry and medical technology.

We would be happy to send you a free day ticket and / or arrange an appointment with you in advance at the exhibition stand.
Our current brochure on the subject of sliding coatings is already available for download.

Decor meets technology
Bring your color into play without having to forego the multifunctional PTFE surface with its many possible uses.
For example:
- thin layers (approx. 10 – 15 µm)
- Abrasion resistance
- Sliding properties
- e.g. permanent temperature resistance of 205 ° C
- Noise reduction
- good deformability
- and now also in colors e.g. green, red, blue, black, gold and silver
We would be happy to send you samples for initial tests or advise you personally!
