6 reasons why more than 1,000 customers have already chosen ZELL.
We consistently work to the highest quality standards for our customers. With our globally recognized "Made in Germany" approach, ZELL stands for reliability, precision, and durability. Comprehensive internal quality assurance ensures that every development result precisely meets our customers' requirements—a decisive factor, especially when developing new components. Our systems are tested extensively, both internally and in collaboration with reference customers. Many of them have been in continuous use for decades, impressively demonstrating the lasting quality and robustness of our solutions.
Working closely with our customers, we develop new ideas and innovative solutions every year. Together, we analyze existing challenges and continuously refine our systems and components. Our goal is to regularly bring new patents to market through ongoing innovation, thereby creating sustainable competitive advantages for our customers.
We actively and competently support prospective and existing customers in their decision-making process. Our team guarantees fast and reliable feedback—usually within 24 hours. In addition, we attach great importance to close, personal support: our trading partners and subsidiaries around the world are on hand to support our customers locally with the implementation of ZELL systems.
At ZELL, workpiece carriers and cleaning baskets are consistently designed as modular solutions. This enables us to offer our customers a long-term, sustainable approach with low investment costs. For new projects, it is sufficient to adapt individual components—such as clips—to new parts in order to restart production quickly and efficiently. This concept also pays off during ongoing operations: if a carrier or basket is damaged, only the affected component needs to be replaced, not the entire product. The result is significant cost advantages combined with high manufacturing precision and process reliability.
With over 30 years of experience in mechanical engineering, ZELL is a reliable and competent partner for the manufacturing industry. As an independent mechanical engineering company and long-standing manufacturer of workpiece carrier systems, we have extensive project experience from hundreds of successfully implemented applications as well as in-depth expertise in the process optimization of demanding manufacturing processes. On this basis, we advise customers from more than 15 different industries worldwide on the development of tailor-made solutions – and in doing so, we also continuously develop our own systems and expertise.
ZELL systems actively support OEMs and industrial manufacturers in implementing sustainable production concepts. ZELL was awarded the German Packaging Prize in 2024 for its innovative reusable containers. All products can be completely disassembled into their component parts. Plastic components in particular can be efficiently recycled and reused as granulate for the manufacture of new components. At the same time, ZELL systems are characterized by exceptionally high durability and offer manufacturers a reliable, long-lasting basis – even for the most demanding manufacturing processes.
Success stories with ZELL systems solutions and processes
"We have been partnering with ZELL Systemtechnik GmbH since 2010. Some of the load carriers have been in use for over 8 years! (Video)"
"The use of Zell's workpiece carrier systems/cleaning baskets means an improvement in quality for us when it comes to parts cleaning. With the modular system, we have succeeded in transporting our components sustainably. This process ensures that our parts remain scratch-free in all production processes."
Pero AG confirms that it has tested the Zell Factory System for compatibility with modified alcohols in combination with ultrasound. After ultrasonic cleaning with solvent, no optical or mechanical changes could be detected.
ZELL has taken parts cleaning and intralogistics to a whole new level. When we ask for help, we get solution-oriented suggestions. Their outside perspective often helps us out.
We have been working in partnership with ZELL since 2016. ZELL© stainless steel allows us to clean our products in a targeted manner. The special positioning of the parts in the clips means that they are contact-free and can therefore be washed in a rotating motion without damage. Our different product sizes require different holders. Before using the ZELL systems, we could only wash "semi-positioned" or loose, which meant that we could only wash statically or with swivelling. Overall, we now achieve a better cleaning result. We particularly liked the possibility of individual customisation at ZELL. (Video)
"The use of Zell workpiece carrier systems means a noticeable improvement in quality for us throughout the entire cleaning and manufacturing process. The modular system enables safe, damage-free transport of our sensitive components while ensuring optimal rinsing during parts cleaning. For us at ebm-papst, this is a decisive contribution to our high quality standards. We are particularly impressed by the sustainable, modular approach of the systems—a cost-efficient alternative that perfectly matches our quality standards."
We have been successfully using the ZELL Factory System at our site for a year now. The plastic workpiece carriers are ideal for the internal transport of our precision parts. Optimal separation guarantees that our high-quality components remain free of contact. This allows us to avoid micro-scratches and impact marks during production. Together with ZELL, we have developed several new Multiclips that have been optimized for our components so that we can efficiently load a maximum number of them in the factory. We greatly appreciate the possibility of cleaning components in the same workpiece carrier. Overall, we are very satisfied with the implementation of the project.
We have been using workpiece carrier systems from ZELL for several years. We use them in our production facilities for the secure storage, transport, and cleaning of high-quality dental tools. The systems offer us a reliable, clean, and reproducible solution that is optimally tailored to our requirements. Thanks to the modular design and the wide range of clips available, we can respond flexibly to new product launches while maintaining the stability and high quality of our existing processes.
All ZELL systems and processes are designed in accordance with international standards to cover as many areas of application as possible.
