Used metalworking machinery
Metalworking is the largest and most diverse division in our inventory—it encompasses all types of machines that cut, shape, or grind metal. At MHD Maschinenhandel, you'll find machines from manufacturers such as Liebherr, Index, Grob, Gleason Pfauter, Schütte, EMAG, Oerlikon, Deckel, Reishauer, Brinkmann, Kapp, and Wera, with production years ranging from the 1960s to the 2020s.
This page serves as an introduction to our metalworking categories. Instead of delving into a single machine type, we provide an overview of the most important subcategories so you can jump directly to the machine type that best suits your manufacturing task.
Here you will find our current selection of used machines in this category. Metalworking – Available immediately and directly from our stock. Use the filters to quickly find the right machine.
Tell us your specifications – we will contact you as soon as a suitable machine becomes available.

Which category best suits your application?
For machining rotational parts we carry used Lathes, for milling and machining centres Milling machines as well as Boring mills / machining centres for large-format workpieces. If you manufacture gears or bevel gear sets, you will find a specialised range in our category Gear cutting machines . For precision finishing we carry Grinding machines as well as Lapping/honing machines, and for quality assurance Measuring machines.
In addition, our stock includes Presses and stamping machines for forming technology as well as machines for Sheet metal working and saws for material preparation. Each of these categories has its own detailed overview with the relevant purchasing and selection criteria.
What you should pay attention to across all categories
- Year of manufacture and control generation of the machine
- Origin: Single machine from ongoing operation or from a business closure
- Condition of guides, spindle bearings and drive
- Compatibility with your existing manufacturing environment
- Availability of spare parts for the installed control unit
- Opportunity for on-site inspection and testing
These criteria generally apply to all types of metalworking machines, even though the respective category pages also address the technical features of each individual machine type.
Why buying used is worthwhile
Through our connection to the AVV Group, we have continuous access to machinery from company closures and relocations—often from well-maintained, documented production environments. This allows companies to acquire not just a single machine, but, if needed, several compatible machines from different categories for a seamless production chain—for example, a lathe together with suitable measuring technology. Compared to purchasing new equipment, you save considerable investment costs without having to compromise on proven quality.
