A minister, who can move the masses

Johannes Remmel visited the Rothenpieler Group facility in Erndtebrück.

Erndtebrück September 8th, 2011. The NRW Environment Minister Johannes Remmel occupied himself today at noon in Erndtebrück-Schameder with an extremely complex issue: During his two-hour visit to the production facility of the Rothenpieler Company Group he governed some very heavy and advanced metal-cutting machine tool. “Here we can see a minister who really moves the masses” commented the two managing directors Christoph and Stefan Rothenpieler. There, in front of those big and massive steel parts, with weightswhich can reach up to 150 tons, Remmel could see practical examples of complex heavy metal cutting, performed with a watchmaker’s precision. The hosts also explained the environmental standards of the Rothenpieler Company Group. The modern high-tech solutions realized in the Erndtebrück facility do also in this respect contribute to great improvements. Christoph Rothenpieler: “The computer control systems and the high automation level of the machines guarantee enormous energy savings”.This is advantageous both from the ecological, as well as from the economical point of view.

Tailwind for Flanschenwerk Zeppenfeld

Wilnsdorf/Neunkirchen. The most recent chapter of the Group’s history is now 80 days old: That’s when the Rothenpieler Group added the Flanschenwerk Zeppenfeld to their “Family”. Now the the time has come for the two Managing Directors, Christoph and Stefan Rothenpieler, to make a first interim summary: Sales, flexibility and quality, all develop quite positively.

The objective is clearly defined: Flanges and rings manufactured at the Zeppenfeld facility, will soon all comply with the highest Rothenpieler Standards. With the integration of the Flanschenwerk, the Company Group has increased their product portfolio. We will make use of the important core competence of the two companies and take advantage of all possible synergy effects, Christoph Rothenpieler explains. It is now possible to machine big sized components in five production facilities, on a total of more than 60 machine tools. This translates in an added value for the customers in terms of more flexibility and shorter delivery times, while the company will benefit from a more optimal production process. That’s all part of the profession. The Rothenpieler Group is synonymous with products of the highest accuracy and mechanical resistance.
