Hands-On Factory Planning – Students from WHZ Visit HÖRMANN Rawema 🏭

Last week, we welcomed students from the West Saxon University of Applied Sciences in Zwickau. Accompanied by Prof. Dr.-Ing. habil. Ralph Riedel, Professor of Business Administration, they spent a morning with us in Chemnitz—with a clear goal: not just to understand factory planning, but to experience it firsthand.

🔍 Highlights of the day:

• Planning processes and project management: from methodology to specific planning tools such as visTABLE and AutoCAD
• Various application examples: 3D laser scanning, automated guided vehicles, plant layout and logistics planning
• Digital transformation in practice: Process and material flow simulation as well as digital twins
• Tour of our smart factory: Hands-On Factory Planning

A big thank you to Prof. Riedel and the students for their interest and the engaging discussion. 

We always look forward to events like this and direct dialogue with the next generation.
