Hujambo Habari – Our installation manager supports the educational development in Africa

In the lug­gage car­rier with an edu­ca­tio­nal Mis­sion It is an idea that is more than admi­ra­ble.

Hegenscheidt-MFD: the long history of our sister company

Wars move the eco­nomy in seve­ral ways. The change of pro­duc­tion to arma­ments, the relo­ca­tion of pro­duc­tion faci­li­ties to »safer« areas, the dis­mant­ling and rem­oval of faci­li­ties after a vic­tory in the win­ner count­ries. In other cases, the peo­ple flee only with their know­ledge. 72 years ago, in 1947, the way of Hegen­scheidt com­pany from Rabi­tor, Upper Sile­sia ended in Erkel­enz, which had been con­que­red by the Soviet army and had became Polish.

Automatized wheelset machining for metro companies

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…
