Höckh Metall-Reinigungsanlagen GmbH: Good (pre)-planning is half the job
Höckh Metall-Reinigungsanlagen GmbH: Good (pre)-planning is half the job Höckh Metall-Reinigungsanlagen GmbH is located in Neuenbürg in the German Black Forest and produces automated plants for industrial parts cleaning. The main mechanical and electrical engineering design procedures are also as automated as the cleaning of parts such as engine components. Design automation is based on an integrated CAE system using EPLAN Preplanning as the starting point in product development. Medical instruments, blades from aircraft jet turbines and engine components are just some examples of the broad range of parts that Höckh plants clean. The plant designs are similarly broad including procedures for the in-feeding of parts. Only the core process process engineering remains relatively similar. Each
