​IGW’s expertise in large machined components supports world‑leading industries

While gears are at the origin of IGW, our capabilities extend far beyond drivetrain technology. For more than 50 years, we have built deep expertise in the manufacturing of large machined components, enabling us to serve customers who rely on extreme precision, reliability, and flawless execution.
Today, our components are used in highly demanding sectors, including medical technology and semiconductor lithography, yet our capabilities extend far beyond these applications.

Supporting critical healthcare technology

One of our long‑standing customers is a global leader in healthcare technology. For their advanced imaging equipment, we deliver large machined components used in scanners that support medical personnel during interventional X‑ray procedures. What sets IGW apart is our ability to deliver fully finished, assembly‑ready parts. The process starts with castings delivered to our Oostkamp facility. From there, we manage the complete transformation—from machining to inspection, painting, and final finishing, so the components arrive at the customer completely ready for integration into their systems.

In the semiconductor lithography sector, the standards for quality are incomparable. Machines used in this field must achieve accuracy measured in nanometres, requirements that leave no room for compromise. We are proud to manufacture large machined components for a world‑leading OEM in this industry. These include one of the structural frames used in sophisticated lithography systems that power the production of advanced electronic components worldwide. Just as in our medical projects, we manage the entire supply chain, from rough material to the final finished part. Our scope includes machining, surface treatment, and sub‑assembly performed in a controlled clean‑area environment before shipment to the customer.

Large machined components present unique engineering challenges. Their size introduces potential variations, such as deformation throughout the production process, which require absolute control and deep technical experience. Thanks to more than three decades of expertise, our teams have developed the know‑how to consistently deliver reliable, high‑precision components, built to perform in the most demanding applications and environments.

Proud of the trust placed in us

We are honoured that global industry leaders rely on our components for critical applications across multiple markets. While medical technology and semiconductor manufacturing are strong examples of where our parts are used today, our expertise is not limited to these sectors. IGW continues to expand its capabilities to support a broad range of industries that require complex, high‑quality large machined components. Driven by the trust of our customers, we look forward to embracing new challenges and continuing our journey of precision manufacturing excellence.
