SIEMPELKAMP | MACHINERY AND PLANTS<br />
Large Schiess vertical boring and turning mill<br />
kamp‘s foundry as well as machinery and<br />
plant engineering divisions has been closed.<br />
CNC-controlled turning and milling machines<br />
will also join the production center<br />
soon. The DMG CTX Gamma 2000 TC as<br />
well as the DMF 360 Linear will be the<br />
‘twin’ machines to an existing machine of<br />
this type. Both will be operational in<br />
December <strong>2010</strong>.<br />
No machine without manpower!<br />
The new capacity utilization and equipment<br />
result in a need for additional workers at<br />
the Krefeld production location. “We will<br />
gradually hire up to 40 new industrial employees<br />
who will complement our existing<br />
staff of 914 <strong>Siempelkamp</strong> employees,”<br />
says Dr.-Ing. Hans W. Fechner, CEO of<br />
Maschinen- und Anlagenbau GmbH &<br />
DMG CTX Gamma 2000 TC<br />
Foundation for mill<br />
Co. KG. <strong>Siempelkamp</strong> is looking for experienced<br />
staff for the process planning,<br />
cutting machine operators, NC programmers,<br />
hydraulics assemblers, and<br />
crane operators in order to cope with<br />
the high workload and the associated<br />
customer demands.<br />
By the same token <strong>Siempelkamp</strong> will focus<br />
on intensifying training activities. “Current ly,<br />
we are employing 64 trainees in the area<br />
of machine and plant engineering. We will<br />
increase this number in order to bring<br />
more junior staff to <strong>Siempelkamp</strong> and<br />
secure the know-how of our company in<br />
the long term,” explains Dr.-Ing. Hans W.<br />
Fechner. In order to defy the lack of skilled<br />
personnel and the problem of fi nding<br />
qualifi ed new trainees, <strong>Siempelkamp</strong> will<br />
strengthen its recruiting as well as training<br />
and further education activities. Currently, a<br />
DMF 360 Linear<br />
12<br />
13<br />
team of young engineers runs through an<br />
extensive qualifi cation program which,<br />
among other things, includes construction<br />
site assignments lasting several weeks.<br />
A production center that is becoming increasingly<br />
more effi cient and has an<br />
increas ingly higher number of qualifi ed<br />
personnel is part of the model that <strong>Siempelkamp</strong><br />
uses to head towards successful<br />
future years and orders. Full capacity utilization<br />
requires full performance: In 2011 up<br />
to 400,000 working hours will be performed<br />
at the Krefeld production facility; the<br />
normal capacity of the production volume<br />
is 300,000 working hours. This output will<br />
be complemented by 60,000 production<br />
hours at Hombak in Bad Kreuznach, Germany,<br />
120,000 hours at CMC Texpan/Italy,<br />
170,000 hours in Blatnice/Czech Republic,<br />
and 400,000 hours in Wuxi/China.
