In the presentation by Rainer Harter, CTO, the participants experienced an “exciting” history of development in the truest sense of the word. It all began 65 years ago as a trading company for aircraft parts. At that time, there was no real strategy in sight, and it was only about 20 years ago that the product range was decisively sharpened. Plain bearing technology offered the first niche in which the passion for perfection could be realized.

Over the years, further high-precision products were added. High-precision clamping systems, rotary tables and complete chassis for sports cars are also part of the company's product portfolio today. Accuracies of 0.001 mm and less are the company's specialty and the basis of its success. This is where the Black Forest company's slogan “the precision benchmark” comes to life.

In addition, the participants were able to experience the innovative and lean in-house development of project management with MS Teams from the Head of Production and Project Management, Dr. Matthias Uhrig. It is impressive how such a lean and efficient method was developed and implemented in less than a year with an internally motivated team. This is another important building block for the company's success.

In the subsequent discussion, the economic situation of the participating companies was exchanged intensively and confidentially, and various commonalities were found over a networking snack and further discussions were arranged in smaller groups.

This mixture of company presentation and confidential exchange shows that the wvib cluster meetings are a value-adding component of the community.

Maximum precision in a rural environment!
And where can you find that? In the Black Forest, of course!
