How Avantec and MTE live a strong partnership

May 18, 2026

Does the perfect match between tool and machine really play the decisive role? In this episode of Maschinengeflüster, we delve deep into the practice of machining together with Avantec – and take a look behind the scenes of modern manufacturing processes.

Tim Zöllner is a real industry expert: he has been with Avantec for over 23 years and has gone from working on the milling machine to the position of Technical Manager and European Sales. Today, he combines technical know-how with a strategic view and is close to customers, developments and challenges in the industry.

Together with Florian König and Kim Fischer from MTE, we talk about how Avantec came to the MTE milling machine, how machines today are not only produced, but actively tested, demonstrated and optimized – and why the perfect interplay of tool and machine determines success or failure.

In addition to exciting insights into the collaboration between MTE and Avantec, the event will also focus on current trends in machining and how technology can ultimately create real added value for the customer.

A practical episode for anyone who wants to understand what really makes modern production today – and why details often make all the difference.
