Recrui­ting young talents is still an important issue in 2020. New tech­no­lo­gies, new mar­ket and cus­to­mer requi­re­ments con­stantly demand new inter­nal and new employee know-how. For this reason, we regu­larly wel­come young peo­ple to our com­pany in order to ensure a con­stant exch­ange bet­ween sci­ence and prac­tice. Last Fri­day, 24.01.2020, we had with us 30 mecha­ni­cal engi­nee­ring stu­dents from the Uni­ver­sity (FH) Mitt­weida. After a visit to the plant, the stu­dents got some sou­ve­nirs of the Chem­nitz site and the hol­ding NILES-SIMMONS-HEGENSCHEIDT We wish all stu­dents suc­cessful final exams and…

    Dear cus­to­mers, dear busi­ness part­ners, On behalf of NILES-SIMMONS Indus­trie­an­la­gen GmbH we wish you a healthy and suc­cessful year 2020. The start into of the new decade means for us to opti­mize our pro­ducts as well as our ser­vice and at the same time to improve the qua­lity of the machi­nes in order to meet the increased mar­ket requi­re­ments in the usual way. Our empha­sis here is on the con­ti­nuous impro­ve­ment of our inter­nal pro­ces­ses as well as the ana­ly­sis and adapt­a­tion of the neces­sary inter­nal struc­tures. We…

Wheel­sets of rail­way vehic­les are expo­sed to con­stant wear during ope­ra­tion. This is che­cked regu­larly; the respec­tive main­ten­ance mea­su­res for the wheel­sets are usually exe­cu­ted at regu­lar inter­vals. A fur­ther opti­mi­sa­tion of main­ten­ance pro­longs the run­ning times of the wheel­sets and also redu­ces the costs for the ope­ra­tors. For the ana­ly­sis of wear fac­tors, it is neces­sary to trace the history of wheel­sets throug­hout their ser­vice life accor­ding to their cha­rac­te­ristic data. These ana­ly­ses pro­vide the basis for iden­ti­fy­ing and tap­ping pre­viously unu­sed poten­tial in the main­ten­ance of wheel­sets. With…

For this pur­pose, we orga­ni­zed dif­fe­rent tours of the plant, where the machi­nes could be viewed in detail. Many thanks to all visi­tors for their high inte­rest. We are alre­ady loo­king for­ward to next year. In…

After 100 years RASOMA we cele­brate this year 130 years HEGENSCHEIDT-MFD. 1600 guests were invi­ted to the anni­ver­sary of our sis­ter com­pany, among them just com­pany employees and their fami­lies. It was very important for HEGENSCHEIDT to arrange the com­pany anni­ver­sary as a family cele­bra­tion. John Oli­ver Nau­mann, Mana­ging Direc­tor and Chair­man of the Board, explai­ned that HEGENSCHEIDT is »very proud of its employees, who are par­ti­ally working for HEGENSCHEIDT in the third or even fourth gene­ra­tion within their family and have thus shown great loyalty to the com­pany«.
