LMD GmbH
"KONSEQUENT ZIELFÜHREND"
German SME in Lennestadt developing custom robot grippers and 3D-printed automation components for food, pharma & packaging industries.
LMD GmbH is a specialized German engineering and manufacturing company based in Lennestadt, Sauerland, North Rhine-Westphalia, with its address at Zum Elspebach 2, 57368 Lennestadt. The company was founded around 2004-2006 and has approximately 20-22 employees, led as of 2024 by managing directors André Hümmeler and Tobias Wagner.
LMD's core competency lies at the intersection of additive manufacturing (3D printing) and custom automation component design — particularly robot grippers and mechatronic handling systems. The company designs and manufactures individual grippers and modular robot handling systems for automation technology, utilizing laser sintering and other additive manufacturing processes to produce lightweight, precise, and application-specific components.
A key differentiator for LMD is its expertise in food-safe and pharmaceutical-grade additive manufacturing. The company uses validated materials including PA2201, Alumide, PA11BlueCare, PA11Detect (for metal detection in food processing), and TPU. These materials enable production of food-contact-safe grippers and handling components for sectors with the highest hygiene requirements — food, pharmaceutical, and packaging industries. For example, LMD has developed custom gripper hands capable of safely handling soft, oily food products such as antipasti.
Beyond gripper technology, LMD develops comprehensive automation solutions and future-oriented electronics for industrial, leisure, and control applications, functioning as a contract manufacturer and problem-solver for customers in automated manufacturing who need special parts, prototypes, or small-series production that conventional machining cannot easily achieve.
The company operates an online shop (shop.lmd-innovation.de) for standard 3D-printed components and materials, while its main service is custom engineering and manufacturing. LMD's cross-industry expertise enables it to adapt additive manufacturing best practices to diverse industrial applications, and the company actively publishes technical content on the advantages of additive manufacturing in robot automation.
