Manufacturing-Journal | 7 |troduced to enhance efficiency, qual-ity, or energy performance?Innovation is an ongoing process at Hanomag. We have invested heavily in energy-efficient furnaces equipped with regenerative burners and advanced in-sulation to reduce consumption.We are testing AI-based process optimi-zation tools that analyze thermal cycles to improve consistency and minimize distortion. Our Digital Twin Technology allows us to simulate heat treatment be-havior for complex geometries, ensuring repeatable quality.We have expanded our plasma nitrid-ing capacity to meet growing demand for high-surface-quality treatments with lower emissions, and we are increas-ingly integrating green energy sources and zero-emission quenching media into production. These efforts reflect our strategy of combining technical innova-tion with environmental responsibility.Client Sectors and Global CollaborationWhat industries and sectors are your main customer base?Our customer base primarily includes the automotive, industrial machinery, and electrical engineering sectors, with growing activity in renewable energy applications. We serve both OEMs and Tier 1 suppliers, offering tailored solu-tions for critical components.Do you cooperate with international OEMs or participate in export pro-jects beyond Germany?Yes, we work closely with international OEMs and their global supply networks. While we do not export products direct-ly, many of the treated components we process are integrated into assemblies that are exported worldwide. Through this, Hanomag plays an indirect yet cru-cial role in global value chains.How do you select your key suppliers and technology partners?Supplier selection is based on techni-cal competence, innovation potential, reliability, cost-effectiveness, and sus-tainability. We value long-term rela-tionships, particularly in R&D collabo-ration, and place strong emphasis on ISO-based quality and environmental compliance. Strategic partnerships are essential for mutual growth and shared innovation.Kassel, Germany
