WILLMANN<br />
On 1 January 2006 <strong>HANSA</strong>-<strong>FLEX</strong> Hydraulik GmbH<br />
took over the shares of Willmann Steuerungstechnik<br />
GmbH. A change in management is now scheduled<br />
for the beginning of 2008.<br />
With the sale of Willmann Steuerungstechnik<br />
GmbH to <strong>HANSA</strong>-<strong>FLEX</strong> Hydraulik GmbH, Wolfgang<br />
Willmann has taken a strategic decision for the future,<br />
designed to ensure the continuity of his company<br />
and so safeguard service for customers on a<br />
long-term basis.<br />
A long-term approach was at issue here, particularly<br />
as regards hydraulic steel construction, a speciality<br />
of Willmann Steuerungstechnik. This sector<br />
had in recent years already been under the control<br />
of Stephan Kallage, who remains at the company in<br />
a management role. This means that the company<br />
22<br />
20 successful years in the hydraulics sector<br />
Change in management at Willmann<br />
<strong>HYDRAULIKPRESSE</strong><br />
will not have to do without his specialist knowledge,<br />
so safeguarding company operations in terms<br />
of ongoing and new projects. The chances of success<br />
for two forthcoming hydraulic steel construction<br />
projects look very promising at the moment.<br />
Wolfgang Willmann was anxious to maintain direct<br />
contact with customers as fast technical assistance<br />
and personal support remain the bywords of the<br />
company. At the special request of <strong>HANSA</strong>-<strong>FLEX</strong><br />
Hydraulik GmbH he initially continued to act as<br />
managing director in particular to arrange for his<br />
successor at the company and to ensure a smooth<br />
handover.<br />
This has now taken place. The fate of Willmann<br />
Steuerungstechnik GmbH is now in the hands of<br />
Stephan Kallage and Martin Brinkmann. Stephan<br />
Kallage takes over as technical director, while Martin<br />
Brinkmann is in charge of commercial management.<br />
In the fi eld Eilt Poppen will be playing an important<br />
role in account management and customer<br />
acquisition, so rounding off the team at Willmann<br />
Steuerungstechnik GmbH.<br />
“Expertise in <strong>Hydraulics</strong>” – Willmann Steuerungstechnik<br />
is set to live up to this claim in future. This<br />
is the challenge taken on board by the new team.<br />
With the technical know-how and experience of all<br />
staff the company will continue to satisfy the expectations<br />
of its customers to their full satisfaction.<br />
