WEG launches new European automation centre
11 June 2014
Leading international supplier of drive technology, WEG, has opened a new European automation centre to improve customer support and further strengthen its automation components business in Europe.

In addition to locating its European automation specialists in the new centre, WEG is opening a shop with test stands, a training centre and warehouse space for automation components.
With the main objective of concentrating forces in one location to boost awareness of WEG's frequency inverters, soft starters and servo drives in Europe, the new centre will be led by both Fábio Gonçalez, the recently appointed EME automation manager and head of the Automation Centre, and Bernd Kaiser, automation and drive systems manager at WEG Germany.
