About AWL

AWL is a machine builder with a social heart, a global player with a local soul. We call our customers collaboration partners. Different cultures, languages and countries are in daily contact with each other at AWL. Learning from each other, working together, living together. We work on solutions that these times demand of us, on issues such as digitization, automation and logistics.

Disciplines and competencies

As a system integrator, AWL provides added value as a specialist in spot and arc welding and in laser welding. Nowadays, other automation techniques such as glued joints, vision systems, product handling, quality control and traceability are just as important. All disciplines are represented in our organization. At AWL, we focus on the automotive, metalworking and automation industries, where high levels of automation and a high degree of flexibility are essential.

With branches in the Netherlands, the Czech Republic, China, Mexico, the United States and the United Kingdom, we support our customers all over the world. This guarantees our customers’ global productivity by means of smart and reliable solutions in the field of high-end automation, robotization and joining techniques.

AWL is a private company with over 600 employees worldwide.

Experience and research

The lead that AWL had with laser welding technology made AWL the preferred supplier for suppliers to the automotive industry. Each year, AWL machines make parts for ten million cars worldwide. AWL has retained the ability, despite its size, to adapt quickly in order to continue to meet customer needs.

AWL invests heavily in research and development. The Research & Development department has grown in six years from four to forty employees. This department is an important part of the foresight of the company and thus in ensuring the future, in new technologies and markets. Our customers benefit from this too.
