Well-positioned for the future in timber construction

WEINMANN showcased itself to existing and potential customers at the DACH+HOLZ International trade fair in Stuttgart. Among the topics of discussion at the industry conference for timber construction were the company's extensive range of products and services and the challenges currently facing the industry. WEINMANN experts provided timber construction companies with valuable information on ways in which their company will continue to be well-positioned in the future, particularly in terms of technology, automation and flexibility.

Timber construction projects are in demand. Nevertheless, challenges such as the current high level of interest rates, the decline in the construction of detached houses and the shortage of skilled workers are leaving their mark on the sector. With this environment as a backdrop, WEINMANN wants to offer its customers added value through its innovative products and services and presented itself as a holistic partner throughout the process.  

Innovative solutions — ideal for woodworking shops 

From beam processing to frame work and element production and material handling, WEINMANN demonstrated its product portfolio encompassing the entire timber construction process chain at DACH+HOLZ International. 
In order to meet the changing demands of the market, many timber construction companies are now making use of an increased level of prefabrication and automation. With its innovative technologies, WEINMANN offers the right solutions for entry-level automation, which is why the new WALLTEQ M-300 multifunction bridge was of particular interest. The M-300 impressed numerous timber construction and carpentry companies thanks to its high degree of flexibility, small footprint and sophisticated options, such as a batten shoe for the unit quick-change device. In addition to the multifunction bridge, the BUILDTEQ A-300 carpentry table, which enables convenient production of wood frame construction elements, also wowed the crowds. Visitors took note of the assembly table's modularity and extensive equipment options.

The A to Z for your timber framing needs

As a holistic partner for timber construction, WEINMANN creates far more than just the basis for efficient and innovative production. The company supports carpenters and timber construction companies throughout their entire journey, from consulting through development of the appropriate production concept to ensuring that employees are appropriately qualified and the company is well orientated for the future. The respective experts from the WEINMANN Academy and from Schuler Consulting provided an insight into their training and consulting services. The motto—"The A to Z for your timber framing needs"—is a real promise and includes everything that lies in between. WEINMANN is already at the customer's side in the planning phase. From the very beginning, the initial situation and the customer's requirements are jointly analyzed, resulting in individually tailored solutions. However, the partnership does not end with the purchase of the system — after all, the aim is to shape a successful future together.

WEINMANN offers more than just machines

Managing Director Josef Zerle was also happy to look back on WEINMANN's presence at the trade fair, emphasizing: "This year's DACH+HOLZ International has once again shown that the woodworking industry is the driving force of the economy, even in difficult times. Carpenters and timber house construction companies are looking to the future with optimism – and a part of this is because WEINMANN is a powerful partner that is shaping the next development stage for carpentry businesses together with the woodworking shops. 
Our innovations have generated a great deal of enthusiasm. The woodworking industry is looking forward — the optimism was palpable!"
