Milestones
Our company’s roots date back to 1896, when the first cutting machines were developed and built in Bautzen. Since then, we have played a leading role in shaping developments in the cutting machine industry.
The high-speed cutters we are currently designing belong to a new, innovative generation of machines and are pioneering the use of industrial technologies.
A multitude of innovations serves as evidence of the significance of PERFECTA’s successful developments.
