Germany Strengthens Sales in the Material Handling Sector

With a new sales structure, WITTMANN in Germany is responding to the growing demand for complete systems for plastic material supply. Plastic processors in northern Germany now have two dedicated, permanent points of contact.

“We can now respond even more quickly to the needs of our customers in northern Germany,” says Alexander Paech, Sales Manager for Automation and Auxiliaries at WITTMANN BATTENFELD Deutschland. “With Jörg Schröer and Gunnar Dieckhoff, we now have two dedicated contacts for the region, both of whom bring many years of experience with products from the WITTMANN Group.”

Jörg Schröer has been a sales partner of the WITTMANN Group for more than 20 years. He is now assuming overall responsibility for material handling projects in the region. Gunnar Dieckhoff is moving from the Standardization department to the Material Handling division and will be responsible for the project planning of material handling systems. He has been with WITTMANN since 2017.

The new structure underscores WITTMANN’s high level of expertise in providing complete solutions from a single source. The Meinerzhagen location will be even more closely aligned with the WITTMANN Group’s entire product portfolio. While the two German locations in Nuremberg and Meinerzhagen had long focused on different business areas, visitors can now experience all products firsthand at both sites – from material handling, injection molding machines, mold temperature control, and automation to in-line recycling and digital technologies. Auxiliary equipment, robots, and injection molding machines are offered both as standalone units for combination with injection molding technology from other brands and as integrated solutions from a single source. “With complete solutions, we can precisely coordinate all components of the production cell from the very beginning, thereby maximizing efficiency and quality potential,” says Paech. Together with partners, WITTMANN also integrates cleanroom solutions into the overall concept.

The facilities at the technical centers are available to customers and interested parties for material and mold testing, joint development projects, and application-specific consulting.
