New subsidiary ViscoTec Asia in Singapore

Elisabeth Lenz — Tue, 05 Apr 2011 08:39:23 +0000

The company ViscoTec Pumpen- u. Dosiertechnik GmbH is now represented with a subsidiary in Singapore. With the establishment of ViscoTec Asia Pte.Ltd. the German engineering company serves now the entire ASEAN region.

The high demand for “Made in Germany” products made ??by ViscoTec in this region was a key reason for the Bavarian manufacturer of pumps and dosing technology to establish a branch in the area. “As a local contact person to maintain the proximity to customers and expand the range of services as well as the rapid availability of spare parts was a major concern to us, “said George Senftl, managing director of ViscoTec Pumpen- u. Dosiertechnik GmbH.

Mr. Wolfgang Merklein, who will head the newly established subsidiary has specialized for years in this area and there has been a lot of contacts socialized during his professional activity at ViscoTec Pumpen- u. Dosiertechnik GmbH. With his extensive expertise he can be at our customers disposal on site.
The Singapore office is the second overseas representative of the ViscoTec Pumpen- u. Dosiertechnik GmbH. In November 2009 ViscoTec America, the office in Kennesaw, Georgia, was founded which has positioned itself on the American market very well.

pumping technology as garden decoration

Stefan Wimmer — Fri, 13 Jul 2007 13:36:11 +0000

The fact that rotors cannot only pump but also usable as decorative objects shows this photo. For this candleholder I used a sorted out(!) two-stage rotor with size 40, which already got dusty of some years being in the basment, and I led made a suitable high-grade steel baseplate. Here we go! It was rather difficult to find the suitable candles - (nearly) all, which I could buy, had a too large or small diameter and don`t fit into the socket, in which normally the coupling rod sits. Unfortunately I do not recommend for imitation due to the fact of the today’s high-grade steel prices however.

Three weeks ago our large firm anniversary took place: Resch Maschinenbau GmbH, ViscoTec GmbH and Power Heat Set GmbH celebrated on 16 June round birthdays (50,10,5)together. The celebration began at 15 o’clock with a factory tour of all three buildings with organized guidance. Not only for the members, friends and acquaintance this inspection was interesting, also for the employees themselves could look behind the scenes of the other companies. Then afterwards we celebrated in the tent with approx. 700 guests with a delicious meal and live music.

Bike tour

Walter Niller — Thu, 31 May 2007 06:12:31 +0000

After nearly three-year break this year again once a motorcycle rally of ViscoTec coworkers took place. Punctually to the departure time last Friday afternoon eight inspired drivers met at the ViscoTec parking lot. Our colleague Hermann Aigner selected a beautiful route in Lower Bavaria (Niederbayern). The travel went over Geratskirchen, Rimbach and Malgersdorf to Mamming. The relatively small country road required driving skills from Martin Stadler and its Electra Glide, while Rene could not use directly its 172 PS strong Suzuki. In Mamming (Landau a.d. Isar) at pleasant temperatures in the beer garden weh ad a snack and we laughed much. After our stabilization our route on other way led back through Neumarkt St. Veit. At the following driver conclusion discussion were all participants united that this was not the last trip with the Bikes. We try that we can organize a similar route in September again.

Quitting time barbecue

Manuela Plenk — Thu, 24 May 2007 09:56:29 +0000

Social gathering besides hard work is necessary. It is great that a barbecue evening was organized: Coworkers provided food and recreating beer. Thus we spent a beautiful barbecue evening yesterday, where we laughed and ate much. I wouldn`t say it we drunk much…a barrel beer for all unfortunately was too few… but perhaps it was good like that…. There were also no chops or Bavarian sausages, but house-made Thüringer Bratwürste, which our field representative brought from its hometown along. Such a benefit comes not all days. It tasted very much!

IKoRo 2007

Manuela Plenk — Thu, 19 Apr 2007 07:53:22 +0000

Last Tuesday we represented the first time on an applicant fair. The FH Rosenheim, located in the beautiful Bavaria between Munich and the Alps, organized the industry and contact fair in the areas of the university for the 13th time. Over 60 exhibitors – from the engineer’s office up to the international large concern - presented themselves this year on the contact fair. For the enterprises and students the possibility is given to get in contact each other fast and uncomplicatedly, in order to speak about internships, theses (diploma), work student activities and jobs. This day was very interesting for us to be in the middle in the flair of the student life thereby. It prevailed contrary to trade fairs, at which we are normally represented, a pleasant atmosphere… for my taste sometimes too casually, because some students looked, as if they would come straight of the beach: with Bermudas and flip-flops. We wanted to use our presence on the IkoRo to call us as an interesting employer in the region in the consciousness of the students on one hand, to watch out highly-qualified new generation on the other hand. Let`s see whether we will be there next year again ….

Requirements in the east of the European Union

Andreas Grünfelder — Mon, 26 Mar 2007 08:07:11 +0000

Whatever requirements of the dosing technology or in general to automation actually does the eastern area of the European Union have? Here a marketing area with high potential is ever more at growing. Many companies emigrated some years ago due to the enticing low wage level with their productions, these companies must reorient themselves now, in order to compensate this due to rising wages ever smaller becoming, formerly large advantage. Often very large investments in buildings and know-how and the structure of the coworkers locally is naturally in the long term to remain received. Nevertheless many assigned techniques became outdated in the meantime or also by personnel employment became simply too expensive. Thus companies, which want to renew their techniques, are confrontated with the problem to procure techniques like dosing systems which can be used the next two years still as manual work place. Afterwards however these systems are to be inserted as precise techniques into a lining up automation (robot, axis systems etc.) without large expenditure. This presupposes apart from the readiness in the infrastructure to visit still weak countries, also an intensive customer advisory service. By the way these countries are not as bad as it is often in peoples mind - so far despite company car with german license plate I always came back home again with it…
