Ministry of Labour and Social Affairs of Saxony-AnhaltVodka with methanol content in Hall discovered - eating very alert

In Saxony-Anhalt is on preventive controls in a sales office in Halle / Saale, a spirit had been discovered at the beginning of the week there had been a consumption warning from Thuringia. The Thuringian State Office for Food Safety and Consumer Protection had publicly before vodka varieties "Excellent Original Vodka V 24" (1-liter bottle), "Vodka AntiVirus" (0.7 liter bottle) and "Premium Cosmos Vodka" (0.1 -liter bottle), the manufacturer bears krone inc & Co. KG in Leinefelde-Worbis due to harmful levels of methanol warned.
According to information delivery, the product in several states and had been delivered to Denmark. Saxony-Anhalt should therefore not be affected. Were nevertheless also for Saxony-Anhalt precautionary, cause-related causes of food control inspections. As part of this product in the hall was found. It was confiscated.
Paech spokesman Holger: "All citizens who possibly have bought such goods will be asked to drink this vodka not to use products or for consumption. In the previously observed methanol concentrations of up to 18 grams per liter of vodka (1.8 percent) is a health hazard. Methanol poisoning to blindness and in extreme cases lead to death. "

Welding Robots improve quality and productivity

>> High quality - particularly with regard to the criteria of repeatability and precision - and increased productivity are the key benefits of the automation of welding processes. The components are welded to be joined in high cycle applications, allowing for competitive prices.

The Ten-axis welding robot, which are used in the workshops of the sheet metal industry operating Patric métal SA Geneveys-sur-Coffrane (NE) ensure fast, reliable and regular welding processes. Patric The group heard how the companies LNS SA (Orvin) and Meyrat SA, Nugerol Holding SA. It is made from Patric métal SA, the companies Patric concept SA in Colombier (NE) and Patric inox SA in Marin-Epagnier (NE).
Adaptability in the operational events

When Patric métal two robot welding stations with a total of ten are in the CNC-controlled axes used. Each station includes six axes for the robot part, three axes of the machine base and an axis for the rotor. With this production equipment it is possible to "just in time" to produce (especially for mass production advantage) and to work according to the workflow scheme, "Lean Production". If it is the production of small quantities or fractional jobs, pays the flexibility of the system of special. The final products can be delivered either as individual parts and fully assembled.

Patric métal employs 125 employees and performs all automated welding work, from concept to finished product, provides consulting and project studies, development and manufacture of complete products including paint, assembly and quality control. The premises of Geneveys-sur-Coffrane was expanded last year, this was an automated depository for storage of plates decorated with a capacity of 435 campsites. The system of quality control is currently certified according to ISO 9001 standard.

The robotic welding is not only in itself a guarantee of gaining time. The improved regularity, the higher precision of the parts and the increased productivity made possible above all, there can be used alternately to two welding stations and the welds are checked and edited outside of the production line can, whilst the welding robot to continue working without interruption. The production capacity can be doubled by two welding stations to work simultaneously in the same order independently or edit two different parts costing on home loans used for business..
Consistent production - fast production processes

The use in stationary equipment can perform all welding of components for building or steel (MAG, MIG, TIG or CMT). The parts to be welded are fixed to a socket on the machine (circular numeric axis) custom jig. The welded parts reach lengths of up to four meters in diameter and up to two meters. It is also possible to weld with the aid of holding devices very small parts, and so increase the productivity considerably. Thanks to the spring of 2009 went into operation in welding processes Patric métal dare the step to "integral sheet metal work" and currently provides facilities for automated precision welding of very complex parts. During the plant tour of the MSM editors, the facility was in the booth, highly complex parts with automated welding to connect with each other: it is to roll material support of steel sheets from four to five millimeters in thickness, the weld line was 28 meters. As for the uniformity of the weld, not a single correction or rework was necessary. Each workpiece was processed in less than one and a half hours, including testing and quality control. In relation to the traditional way one time gain is achieved by about 30 percent.

A "vital" part of the process is to program the geometric coordinates of the component to be welded and the holding and positioning device in the system. This is done at a workplace (CFAO station) using 3D models that are created with a design software. The holder is manufactured with great precision, so that the geometric variations of the weld seam are not greater than plus / minus 0.5 millimeters.
Production at competitive price

Many companies in Switzerland have now (mostly) due to cost pressures on outsourcing capabilities. Welded components are mainly in Eastern European countries. But several companies have this philosophy once again thrown overboard after being confronted with insurmountable problems such as poor quality of work or delay in delivery.

With the installation of the robot system with Patric métal there were no complaints regarding product quality, even the prices were compared to those charged by the foreign manufacturers are kept competitive. And in addition, there was an added value: the proximity of production led to trusting relationships between customer and spare part supplier. <<

Sealant manufacturer Moose

Created 11:08:10, 18:09
The sealant manufacturer Moose, part of the Henkel Group, is to be moved to Hanover in November. Only in Lower Saxony, new jobs will be offered the 67 employees were told at the staff meeting.
Quetting - The closure decision for the Quetting sealant manufacturer Moose in the company proposes high waves. At a meeting of the 67 employees had been told that new jobs would be at best made available in Hanover, told a staff member. There will of the parent company Henkel to focus its sealants and adhesives division, and thus achieve "economies of scale," said company spokeswoman on Wednesday Sabina Hampe on request. In its existing plant in Hanover more than four million will be invested €.

Workers employed in Quetting work, the end of 2005 was part of Henkel manufacturing inc., had been now proposed to move to Hanover and then make, including new employees with the production of silicone sealant familiar. to be offered the hope of jobs in the Henkel headquarters in Düsseldorf, had fallen through, even though some 5,000 people are employed. announced as Henkel nearly three months the closure of the Leverkusen-based company, had Enric wood Bacher, who is responsible for the division, said: "We are looking take care with the employee representatives about the future of the employees in Leverkusen and to socially responsible solutions." After information from company spokeswoman Hampe run individually with the employees at present - "because there are no new facts."

Already in November to the first steps to shift from place to Hanover Leverkusen. The next spring, will permanently close its doors in the Fixheide. There are not irritated a few people on the entire transaction: The company had increased its sales volume in recent years regularly. From savings concepts that go beyond the continuous job cuts out, was on the road Quetting never been mentioned. Moose has a long tradition: The company was founded in 1947 as a "chemical factory Gustav Drengwitz Opladen" located at the street Lützenkirchen. Then it was sold twice more. 1983, from the founding family's stake in Rhone-Poulenc and the current name today moose appeared. With the merger of parts of the former Hoechst and Rhone-Poulenc Rhodia disappeared moose. Until, Henkel took over the directing. The original company's history begins in 1889, even in the East Prussian Insterburg. (Tk)

manufacturing inc strategy

Manufacturing Strategy: How to Formulate and Implement a Winning Plan, Second EditionTo stay competitive and meet market expectations in a global economy, both domestic and foreign companies must realign their manufacturing processes, make improvements, and increase their manufacturing capabilities. With large numbers of employees working in a network of domestic and foreign facilities, production processes are as varied as the products being produced. Manufacturing managers need a manufacturing plan or strategy that will bring structure to this complex environment.
In Manufacturing Strategy: How to Formulate and Implement a Winning Plan, 2nd Edition, John Miltenburg offers a sensible and systematic method to: (1) evaluate domestic and foreign factories and international manufacturing and (2) plan the appropriate manufacturing strategy to be first in the market.
Incorporating comments and suggestions from managers who used the first edition of Manufacturing Strategy, John Miltenburg expands and improves on his focus in the areas of: International Manufacturing — where the focus is on a company's international network of factories; Competitive Strategy — where managers must understand the role manufacturing strategy plays in their company's business strategy; and Manufacturing Programs — showing how programs such as quality management, six sigma, agile manufacturing, and supply chain management fit within the manufacturing strategy.
Manufacturing Strategy gives managers a common language for dealing with manufacturing problems at both strategic and operational levels. It improves communication between manufacturing managers and those outside manufacturing (who will now have a better understanding of what manufacturing can and cannot do).
