Carrying out routine maintenance can be a chore, but failing to complete regular checks on important pieces of machinery can result in unexpected downtime and lost productivity. Sulzer’s service center in Colton, CA, USA, recently completed an urgent repair on a 700 HP (522 kW) motor, caused by a failed bearing, that could have been easily avoided.

With the aim of strengthening business networks in the state of Wisconsin, Wilo CEO Oliver Hermes welcomed Melissa “Missy” Hughes, Secretary and CEO, and Katy Sinnott, Vice President Global Trade and Investment of the Wisconsin Economic Development Corporation (WEDC) to Wilo’s headquarters in Dortmund. The two Americans were accompanied by Stefan Peikert, Head of the European Office of the WEDC in Berlin.

Pauline Kao, Consul General for North Rhine-Westphalia at the U.S. Consulate General in Düsseldorf, visited the Wilopark in Dortmund. There, she exchanged views with Wilo Group President & CEO Oliver Hermes on current issues regarding transatlantic relations and learned about the technology group’s pioneering role in the areas of sustainable and smart industrial processes.
