Contract Manufacturing for Agricultural Engineering
Shafts, hubs, gearbox and hydraulic parts, wear and spare parts for agricultural machinery
Tractors, harvesting machines and implements work under high loads, with dust, dirt and moisture, and nothing may fail during the season. Their components must be robust, and spare parts must be available quickly.
MWA – Mechanische Werkstätten Anhalt GmbH in Halberstadt manufactures components to drawing for agricultural machinery manufacturers, for suppliers and for repair, from prototype and single part to series.

Which parts do we manufacture for agricultural engineering?
- Shafts, cardan shaft connection parts and PTO shaft parts
- Hubs, flanges and bearing housings
- Gearbox and hydraulic parts such as housings, covers and cylinder parts
- Holders, brackets and attachment parts for tractors and implements
- Parts for harvesting machines, soil cultivation and conveying technology
- Wear and spare parts to drawing or sample
What is particularly important in agricultural engineering?
Agricultural machinery is exposed to changing loads, impacts and dirt. Robust materials, well-seated bearings and fits, and wear-resistant surfaces are therefore important. Then there is the season: if a part is missing during harvest, every day counts.
Which materials are typical?
Common materials are quenched and tempered steel and case-hardening steel for shafts, gears and highly stressed parts, structural steel for holders and brackets, cast iron for housings and hubs, and wear-resistant steels for parts in contact with the soil. On request, we arrange heat treatments such as hardening through our network.

Do you manufacture spare parts from a sample?
Yes. For older machines, spare parts are often no longer available from the factory. We manufacture the part anew from a sample or an old drawing. Information on the installation location and on dimensions critical to function, for example bearing seats, gear interfaces and hole patterns, is important.
Prototypes and series for manufacturers
We support manufacturers and suppliers in agricultural engineering from the prototype for testing through to series. For recurring batches, we quote graduated prices on request. Measurement reports, first article inspection reports and material certificates according to EN 10204 are available on request.
