🤝 National HR conference in Altötting - exchange, inspiration and new impulses 🌟 Last week, 31 HR colleagues from various units of our Group came together in Altötting for the national HR conference! A varied event that focused on sharing and learning. 💬✨ The event started with a tour of our new campus in Waldkraiburg - a great opportunity to experience the production processes up close. 🏭👀 Then the profiling seminar with Marc T. Hoffmann was then a real highlight. Anyone who thought profiling was only for criminologists was in for a surprise: active listening and observation are important tools that also support us in our day-to-day HR work. 🔍🗣️ Our internal topics were not neglected either: diversity, international cooperation, training and development, recruiting and knowledge culture caused lively discussions. How can we share and preserve knowledge sustainably? This is a question that concerns us all and which gave rise to many exciting approaches. 💡📚 In the end, it was clear to us that the professional and personal exchange makes this conference something special every year. Now it's time to integrate the new ideas into everyday working life! 🚀 #NETZSCH #HRConference #Teamwork #Training #Exchange #Inspiration

Innovation in the depths 🌍 Pumps for boreholes with a depth of 2100 meters. A real challenge that our colleagues from Argentina mastered. Accordingly, the project received a Proven Excellence Award in the Innovation category. 🏆 🔍 What makes this project so special? The pump had to be developed for extreme depths and to achieve a pumping capacity of 200 cubic meters per day. But that was not all - our customer attached great importance to energy efficiency. Complex challenges that the team successfully mastered. 💪 📈 The result? - 17% lower investment costs compared to other technologies - Around 30% energy savings, making the pump an extremely cost-effective solution A great achievement - congratulations to the team! 👏 #NETZSCH #provenexcellence #innovation #deepwells #energyefficiency #pumps

🔬 High-tech on a new level - award for improved coupling solutions! 🏆 Our NETZSCH Analyzing & Testing team has won the Proven Excellence Award in the field of innovation for developing two state-of-the-art coupling solutions for our analyzers! 🔍 What is it all about? When analyzing materials at high temperatures, different devices have to be connected to each other - this is called “coupling”. Our team has developed two new systems that make this connection much more efficient and flexible: FT-IR coupling: This improved solution increases the possible interface temperature and thus extends the application range of our devices. GC-MS coupling: With a new, manufacturer-independent connection, our customers can now freely decide which device they want to couple with our systems. These developments set new standards in the industry and strengthen our position in the market. 👏 Congratulations to the team for this groundbreaking work! #NETZSCH #provenexcellence #innovation #coupling systems #technology

Last week we had the pleasure to welcome a Czech delegation under the topics renewable energy, green hydrogen and technical ceramics at our headquarter in Selb. 🌍🌱 We showed them our production sites from NETZSCH-Gerätebau GmbH and NETZSCH Grinding & Dispersing Germany and the energy concept of our future NETZSCH Campus. ⚙️🏗️🔋 The group was visiting the area and also other companies to strengthen the Czech-German economic relationship and show both sides that great solutions may lie just behind the national border we are located to. 🌍🤝 Thank you very much energiewaechter GmbH, AHK Tschechien / Česko-německá obchodní a průmyslová komora, Landkreis Wunsiedel i. Fichtelgebirge for for organizing the trip and visiting us. 🙌 Looking forward to the next time! 😃 #NETZSCH #renewableenergy #shapingfuture #sustainability #czechrepublic

Changing an EU law ⚖️ Another Proven Excellence Award in the People category went to a project team that was able to obtain a exceptional permission from the EU for mercury pressure sensors in rheology. 🏆 ❌ The problem: Our mercury pressure sensors, which are essential for certain applications, conflicted with the EU's RoHS directives. Other sensors were simply not reliable enough. 🚀 The solution? The team applied to the EU for an exemption and worked across departments to create complex documents 📄, prepare presentations 📊 and coordinate with the relevant institutions 🤝. After more than two years, the exemption was granted! ✅ With this success, we have not only solved an important business problem, but also actively participated in EU legislation for the first time. Congratulations to the team on this well-deserved award! 👏 #NETZSCH #provenexcellence #eu #approval #euregulation #sensors #mercury

Energy-efficient grinding of battery material 🔋 Another Proven Excellence Award in the Innovation category went to a four-person project team from the Grinding & Dispersing business unit. 🏆 🔍 That's what it's all about: The previous method of grinding battery material from LFP (lithium iron phosphate) was not efficient enough. With the aim of grinding 100,000 tons of the solid material per year, the project team set to work and developed a more efficient method. 🔧 The approach: Optimizing the shredding systems through extensive tests on a pilot scale. ⚡ The result: The team proved that selecting the right grinding technology is crucial for the specific energy input in production. The use of disk grinding systems instead of conventional pin mills leads to enormous savings potential due to energy efficiency. The project shows how technology and application knowledge together can drive success and open up considerable market potential. Congratulations to the team! 👏 *One colleague cannot be seen in the picture. #NETZSCH #provenexcellence #innovation #batterymaterial #efficiency #energy #LFP #grinding

Efficiency and precision - automatic welding of circumferential seams ⚙️ Congratulations to our colleagues from Lanzhou, China, who won a Proven Excellence Award in Operations for their project! 👏 🔍 So what's it all about? Due to challenges in manual welding of circumferential seams, our team has developed a solution that impresses with its simple operation, high efficiency and visually perfect weld seams. Why is this important? ⏱️ Time saving: 25% shorter welding times ✅ Significantly improved quality: no quality risks and customer complaints 🔋 Strategic foresight: perfectly aligned with the rapidly growing battery business Thanks to the commitment and ingenuity of the colleagues involved, we have been able to raise our operational standards and create a further basis for future success. #NETZSCH #provenexcellence #welding #efficiency #quality #innovation
