THANK YOU FOR SUBSCRIBING
Today, TORWEGGE is established as a reliable supplier of complex conveying systems (gravity or powered). The company integrates them into existing systems with many possible combinations or designs them from scratch together with the customer. “We have a single aim: to optimize the flow of goods/materials at our customers, who can be found in almost all industries,” says Mr. Uwe Eschment, the CEO of TORWEGGE. Further, the company currently employs around 130 people and has sales offices in Benelux, Poland, the Czech Republic, and Slovakia.
In the last few years, TORWEGGE has continuously looked out for innovative ideas.
One of their innovations was the AGV TORsten. “Intralogistics is becoming increasingly complex; and one of the megatrends of the last few years is collaborative machines (manipulators, automated guided vehicles, M2M communication, etc.),” says states Mr. Eschment.
A key component of TORWEGGE’s success is the diversity of its product portfolio. “Hardly any other supplier can offer and deliver wheels & castors, idlers, roller tracks, and complex conveyor technology projects from a single source,” says Mr. Eschment. One of TORWEGGE’s most important projects was the commissioning of 16 AGVs at a manufacturer of whirlpools in Germany. Here, the vehicles had to cover long distances and perform a wide variety of tasks. During this production implementation, TORWEGGE’s vehicles replaced the classic assembly line and transported the pools from the first to the last processing station.

Over the years, the company developed its own housing and wheel series, which are still manufactured today in Europe and Asia. During its journey, TORWEGGE also added the conveyor technology through its intralogistics division, in which idlers were offered to maintenance companies and OEMs—laying down the stepping stone to the success that the company has garnered
