History and present

Company První brněnská kovárna s.r.o. was established in year 1996. This company continued manufacturing and personnel tradition of cancelled forging shop of První brněnská strojírna a.s. and continued with production of forgings with tradition from the beginning of last century. 

Then, in year 1997, after transmigration and installation of machinery, production was started at registered office at address Železná 10 in Brno. It launched dynamic company development, increasing of capacity after installation of another machinery together with increasing of production and productivity.

Then appeared restriction of next development – limit of existing machinery was 7 kg for closed die forgings and 300 kg for open die forgings. Therefore in year 2000 there was another company expansion caused by taking up of technology and production of forging company ČKD Dopravní systémy in Prague – Libeň, Českomoravská street where production continued for next 2 years.

Then in year 2002 machinery was moved to Kladno, where První brněnská kovárna s.r.o. bought former forging shop ZK1 Poldi Kladno.

After another development in year 2007 there was a segmentation into 2 separate companies. That is why present production of forgings is located in PBK ZK s.r.o. in Kladno (area Poldi) and in PBK BM s.r.o. in Brno.
