PRESS RELEASE

Schmersal is coming to Hamburg

The new tec.nicum training centre in North Germany is celebrating its inauguration with two seminars.

Wuppertal, 23rd April 2015. Two seminars in June entitled "Second hand machines" and "Machine export" will see the launch of Schmersal's new tec.nicum training centre in Hamburg. Rooms suitable for the training centre were found at ADT-Zielke GmbH & Co. KG. The shorter travelling distance will make it easier for interested customers in North Germany to attend our seminars.

The starting pistol will be fired on June 9th, 2015 with the "Second hand machines" seminar held by Siegfried Wolf, Director of tec.nicum together with Günter Popp from Schuler Automation, Heßdorf. This event will provide an insight into the rules and regulations governing existing machinery refits and upgrades.

This will be followed by the "Machine export" seminar on June 10th. This speaker here will be Michael Loerzer from the Globalnorm Group, Berlin, who will guide attendees through the legal formalities of marketing plant and machinery outside the European Union.

"We want to give our customers an overview of the issues most relevant to machine safety. We see this knowledge transfer as an important service", says Siegfried Wolf.
