Weinig at a glance
Michael Weinig founded the company in 1905 in Tauberbischofsheim as a trading and manufacturing business. After the Second World War, Bertold Weinig rebuilt the company and switched production to woodworking machines in 1947; in 1948, Weinig became the first company in the industry to introduce series production. The company has been a public limited company since 1988; it was listed on the stock exchange from 1989 to 2002, and has been majority-owned by Kuwaiti investors since 1984. Weinig describes itself as a full-range supplier for solid timber processing and celebrated its 120th anniversary in 2025.
The Weinig Group comprises Weinig Dimter (cross-cut saws and gluing presses, Illertissen), Weinig Grecon (finger-jointing machines, Alfeld), Raimann (slitting saws), LuxScan Technologies (scanners) and, since 2010, HOLZ-HER from Nürtingen for wood-based panel processing – with production in Voitsberg, Austria. The group manufactures in Germany, Austria, Luxembourg, the USA and China, has around 30 subsidiaries and branches, and employed around 2,420 people at the start of 2026, of whom approximately 1,600 were based in Germany. As part of the “Transformation 2027” programme, Weinig is consolidating production from Malterdingen and Alfeld to Illertissen and Tauberbischofsheim.

What the Weinig model designation reveals
The current format is SOLID + operation + series + number. The operation is stated in plain text: PROFILE for grooving and planing, PLANE for surface planing, CUT for trimming, RIP for ripping, SPLIT for band saws, JOINT for finger jointing, PRESS for gluing, CNC for machining centres. Among the grooving machines, the P series continues the Powermat line, whilst the H series continues the Hydromat; the SOLID PROFILE 700 is the successor to the Profimat. A higher number within a series generally indicates greater power. In window manufacturing, the Conturex became the SOLID CNC GR 100, the Conturex Vario MC 50 became the GR 200 V and the Conturex Artis+ became the CR 300; the optimising cross-cut saws were formerly known as OptiCut. For older series such as Unimat, Quickmat or Variomat, the key factors are the number of spindles, working width and year of manufacture.

What we look out for in second-hand Weinig machines
Spindles and bearings: Run each spindle individually – listen for bearing noise, vibrations and heat build-up; check concentricity and axial play. On high-performance machines, temperature monitoring of the spindle bearings indicates how the machine has been operating. Check the number and arrangement of spindles (bottom, right, left, top, universal spindle) against the advertisement.
Tooling system and set-up time: Clarify whether the spindles operate conventionally, with hydraulic tools or with the PowerLock system, and which tools, cutter heads and profile cutters are included. A suitable tool package significantly increases the value.
Control system and electronics: The range extends from mechanical adjustment via Memory Plus to PowerCom Plus. Check that position displays and axes move into position smoothly, and for older window CNC machines such as Conturex, enquire about the software version, licences and tool magazine.
Extraction and safety: Clarify the extraction hoods, connection points and the required air flow rate; check that the soundproof enclosure and safety devices are complete. Ensure you are provided with the CE marking, operating instructions and declaration of conformity; if necessary, retrofit older machines to meet current safety standards.

Frequently asked questions about Weinig
What are the Powermat, Hydromat and Profimat called today?
Weinig has rebranded its machines under the SOLID scheme. The Powermat range lives on as the SOLID PROFILE P series, the Hydromat as the H series, and the SOLID PROFILE 700 is the successor to the Profimat.
What do SOLID PROFILE, SOLID CUT and SOLID CNC mean?
The second word refers to the operation: PROFILE for grooving and planing, PLANE for smooth planing, CUT for trimming, RIP for ripping, JOINT for finger-jointing, PRESS for gluing, CNC for machining centres. The letter and number that follow denote the series and specification level.
What has become of the Weinig Conturex?
The Conturex is now called the SOLID CNC GR 100, the Conturex Vario MC 50 is the SOLID CNC GR 200 V, and the Conturex Artis+ is the SOLID CNC CR 300. These are CNC machining centres designed primarily for windows and doors; the GR 100 operates with 5 interpolating axes and an 18 kW spindle.
Which mitre machine is suitable for a joinery workshop, and which for a planing mill?
For craft workshops and small-batch production, the Profimat and SOLID PROFILE P 300 to P 700 models are designed with feed rates of up to 40 m/min. The Powermat and P 1500 to P 3000 models cater for mass production. The H-series (Hydromat) is designed for planing mills operating in multiple shifts, with feed rates of up to 100 m/min for the H 3000 and up to 300 m/min across the range.
Do Dimter, Grecon and Holz-Her belong to Weinig?
Yes. Weinig Dimter (cross-cut saws and gluing presses), Weinig Grecon (finger-jointing machines), Raimann (slitting saws), LuxScan (scanners) and, since 2010, HOLZ-HER (wood-based panel processing) are part of the Weinig Group.
Where is Weinig based and who owns the company?
Michael Weinig AG has been based in Tauberbischofsheim since its foundation in 1905. It has been majority-owned by Kuwaiti investors since 1984 and has production facilities in Germany, Austria, Luxembourg, the USA and China.
Can I lease a Weinig machine or finance it via hire purchase?
For many listings – both new and used – you can submit a non-binding enquiry about leasing or hire purchase directly. You can discuss the terms with the dealer or their finance partner; the purchase and payment are handled directly between you and the seller.
