Successful bauma week in Munich

BAUMA 2016

The Weckenmann exhibition team also received a large number of visitors at the stand and could welcome lots of visitors from 69 countries at the stand in Hall B1.

Many long-standing customers made use of the opportunity to obtain information on the latest developments and have a personal conversation with our consultants over a hearty lunch or coffee and cake in our visitors Lounge.

We were also very pleased about the large number of prospective customers who visited our stand and for the opportunity to explain the latest technology in precast concrete plants to them.

The Mobile Battery Mould (MBM) was presented as a new development, and it was nominated for the bauma Innovation Award in the machinery category. The mobile battery mould allows the efficient production of flat precast concrete parts in the immediate vicinity of the construction site. This makes it the ideal solution for large temporary construction sites: Its investment costs are manageable, and it produces just in time and is extremely flexible. Due to its compact design, it requires a relatively small installation footprint and just a few people are needed to set it up or dismantle it in as few working days. Accordingly easy to handle is also the manufacturing process, which includes a powerful compaction device to even out any possible fluctuations in the quality of concrete.

Machinery and plant controller from a single source:

WAvision®, the control solution for automated production, was also widely and well-received. With WAvision®, Weckenmann has developed a modular control solution designed for precast concrete production. This solution processes data in any format and so connects all divisions such as management, production planning, production, logistics and reporting in a unified system. As an overall solution, WAvision® provides manufacturers of precast concrete parts with continuous process control, planning and analysis in their plants.

Prospective customers could see and experience the high quality of the products in the field of shutters and magnets live and up close.

Together with its cooperation partner “Martin Dobler Projektmanagement für Betonfertigteilbau”, Weckenmann also presented concepts for low-cost housing solutions. Weckenmann and Dobler assist customers through all the stages from planning to implementation in the cost-effective creation of housing.

Our stand design and layout also received much positive feedback. The stream of visitors described our stand as very beautiful and clearly structured: bauma was definitely an all-round success – from the stand over the entire range of solutions available to customers worldwide.

“We were able to present our new developments and our entire product range to a wide audience. Visitors to this year’s bauma were a very good international mix and contacts made at the stand top class. Bauma 2016 was a great success for us,” is sales manager Dietmar Kiene’s assessment of the trade fair week.

We thank all the visitors who have made this year’s bauma a great success for us and we look forward to many joint projects
