Everyone at ABICOR BINZEL has worked hard this year. However, this additional effort cannot be taken for granted. A big thank you!
Those who are lucky enough to have qualified welders in their company should nevertheless think about automating welding processes, because it is always a question of relieving the workload and the targeted use of welders, where robots have their limits. An increase in volume that simply cannot be handled by the existing team of manual welders could be another starting point. This is what happened at Sächsische Bewehrungsstahl (SBS), one of the largest manufacturers of structural steel in Germany.
On November 10th, our three ABICOR BINZEL ducks took part in the 12th Giessen Duck Race organized by Giessen’s Lions Club "Justus von Liebig". This year, the event took place virtually to meet the current corona restrictions. But this did not lower the excitement. At this special event we could win a fantastic 3rd place with our BINZEL ducks.
However, the decision to participate was not based on the idea of competition. The entry fee for the company ducks is largely donated to a good cause. This year, the donations are going to the aftercare team of "StartKlar" in Giessen. StartKlar offers families help during the hospital stay of their premature or high-risk newborn or chronically ill child. Together with the families, StartKlar plans the necessary measures for a safe start into family life and provides advice and support during the first time in the home environment.
It is nice to know that we can support this great organization in our region and we would like to thank the Lions Club Giessen for this initiative.
Professionally qualified welders are hard to find, production has to cut down on costs and the quantities to be manufactured are skyrocketing. Small and medium-sized manufacturing companies that previously only employed manual welders are no longer questioning whether they should invest in automation, but rather how they can get started.
Every four years, the time usually has come: The world's leading trade fair SCHWEISSEN & SCHNEIDEN attracts international trade visitors to the halls of Messe Essen again. But this year everything was different: Due to the current overall situation, the doors of Messe Essen will not open again until September 11 to 15, 2023, for the leading trade fair for all matters relating to cutting, joining and coating.
What everyone has been waiting for: The first customer event after a forced break of one and a half years. More than 80 BestPartners were welcomed directly or in person over two theme days with numerous product highlights.
Despite or perhaps because of the tough corona months, we are particularly proud to welcome eight new apprentices this year.
On June 4th, 2021, a new President was elected at the General Assembly of the European Welding Association: Prof. Dr.-Ing. Emil Schubert.
The network of e-charging stations will be expanded continuously over the next few years. The company hesotec electrify gmbh uses a robot welding cell from OTC DAIHEN EUROPE GmbH to manufacture e-charging stations – and these are welded with the ABITIG® WH 400 W from ABICOR BINZEL.
Winter is over and the sun is shining more and more every day. Apart from giving us warmer and longer days, this also marks the beginning of the new phase of the bee year. In ABICOR BINZEL's own bee colony, activity is now back in full swing. With spring, the new annual cycle of the busy bees begins.
