GEORG: "It's time to take a stand!"
The current demonstrations against the rise of right-wing extremism in Germany are also affecting the local economy. It has been clear for a long time that this is not only a democratic threat, but also an economic one. GEORG in Kreuztal has decided that we need to take a stand right now.
The recent order from Baosteel Wuhan Iron and Steel Co., Ltd. comprises three GEORG ultragrind SG-2 grinding machines for work rolls and one GEORG ultragrind 25 machine capable of processing both back-up and work rolls.
All four machines will operate within the automatic zone of the roll shop where all logistical and machining processes are performed without any manual intervention. The machines will be integrated into the existing roll shop management system and centrally operated from a common control room. Therefore, GEORG will equip the grinders with GEORG smartcontrol, a machine control system that ensures smooth integration into fully automatic operating environments. The GEORG machines for the Zhanjiang works were also supplied complete with GEORG smartcontrol and have proved highly productive and efficient in operation. With its user-friendly HMI, the system forms an efficient link between the machines and the operators. Additionally, innovative measuring and inspection systems guarantee optimal quality of the reconditioned rolls.
Handover of waffle baking campaign 2024
Today, our trainees were able to hand over the cheque to the “Großtagespflege Kita Langenau (U3 care)”.
1,000 euros were collected this year as part of the “Heinrich Waffles” baking campaign in honor of our founder Heinrich Georg. Many thanks to all trainees for baking and helping and a big thank you to all colleagues for their energetic donations.

Thank you Branco.
For 37 years, our colleague Branco Matejka provided our customers with help and advice. First in service for many years, then as a Sales Engineer. With the exception of Australia and New Zealand, he has traveled the whole world for us. And finally, he trained his successor, our former dual student Felix Wacker. Now his retirement begins.
We will miss you, Branco. As a full-blooded transformer man. As a GEORGian. As a person. Thank you, Branco.
Our trainees visit one of our customers in Salzgitter
Last year we were able to visit our customer Schütz GmbH & Co. KGaA in the Westerwald with around 50 GEORG trainees and dual students and spend a great day together with the Schütz trainees. This week, our two-day training trip went to our long-standing customer Salzgitter Flachstahl GmbH, where we also have many GEORG machines and lines in operation.
Many thanks for the friendly welcome and the super interesting tour of the plant!
Happy 70th birthday to B.Wirtz
How nice is it when we visit our former colleague from the transformer line division at home to wish him a happy 70th birthday and he surprises us with a GEORG cake?
Children at GEORG
Our focus is not only on our employees, but also on our young visitors! We strive to create a family-friendly environment in which children are very welcome. Whether at special events or in our premises such as our parent-child office - even the little ones feel at home with us.
