4 State-of-the-art production and innovative solutions 6 State-of-the-art production engineering and innovative system solutions are characteristic of Scheidt & Bachmann s success. Efficiency and market orientation based on a profound knowledge of the manufacturing process are essential elements of our success. Our flexible organisational structure allows us to engineer custom-made system solutions for our clients. The total workforce in the production section amounts to approximately 570 employees. Scheidt & Bachmann has been DIN / ISO 9001 certified since Our implemented quality assurance is an independent part of our company. Before getting shipped, all assembled machines are checked according to defined quality assurance regulations and have to pass a specific inspection based on sophisticated test scenarios. If desired, this procedure can be realised in collaboration with our customer s technicians. Due to a high proportion of in-house production as well as integration of functional and external devices, we are able to guarantee the availability of spare parts for a long period of time. Some of our installations have been running for more than 25 years and can still be equipped with spare parts. In addition, our flexible production structure allows us to reserve certain areas of our assembly for large projects. Furthermore extensive investments in our production underline its great significance for Scheidt & Bachmann and demonstrate that it will continue to be a cornerstone of our company in the future. 7
