OKW GROUP TRAINEE 'WELCOME-DAY' 2024

In September, the OKW Group hosted the 2024 trainee welcome day. In addition to the trainees from OKW, young talents from Bauländer Kunststoffwerke GmbH in Schlierstadt and Computer Creativ GmbH FROM Buchen also participated.

At the Eventurepark in Mudau-Steinbach, the focus on this day was on 'Communication and Teamwork'. The nine apprentices of the group of companies mastered a low ropes course and successfully navigated an escape room. They then demonstrated absolute trust in their team and their own strength at a dizzying height. The successful day concluded with a barbecue buffet.

We wish all our new apprentices a fantastic start and much success and fun in the coming training year!

Our logistics centre is nearing completion

A year ago, we embarked on an exciting journey — the construction of our logistics centre. The project began with a groundbreaking ceremony held on July 25th, 2023. As the project advances swiftly, the high-bay warehouse stands complete, and the exterior work —distinguished by its elegant anthracite hue — is making good progress.

The 75 x 45-meter, 9-meter-high hall construction integrates modern warehouse technology and an optimised hall layout, significantly enhancing our warehousing and shipping operations.

OKW Gehäusesysteme at the all about automation fair in hamburg

We started the new year with a trade fair appearance in Hamburg: we were represented at all about automation on 17th and 18th January with proven standards and new products from the enclosure and tuning knob sectors. Everything here revolved around industrial automation: whether it was systems, components, software or development services that can be used for suitable solutions in the fields of automation, robotics or digitalization. There were also presentations accompanying the trade fair, which took a closer look at current topics such as AI/machine learning, sustainability in automation and CO2-neutral production.

Around 2,000 visitors were able to obtain comprehensive information and advice on a wide range of automation topics - including from us. Our enclosures and tuning knob can be used in a wide range of applications; they are used, for example, in intelligent machine control systems, measuring or testing devices or even in data acquisition devices as modern "packaging" and precise operating elements. With hand-held, desktop, wall-mounted and wearable enclosures, high-quality products were presented for a wide range of applications, which were well received by interested trade visitors. "Especially now, when digitalization is developing so rapidly in a wide range of industries and business areas, electronics developers need all the more support in choosing the right enclosure. Direct dialogue with interested parties in the early stages of development is therefore all the more important, as it can save time and costs. And a trade fair with its direct contact opportunities is predestined for finding ideas and inspiration as to what the end device could look like," says Michael Reimold, our Deputy Head of Sales and Marketing.
