Aiming for sustainable growth
"We want to continue to grow sustainably and must therefore think today in terms of products and solutions that our customers will need tomorrow and the day after. We can only achieve a sustainable Industry 4.0 through digitalisation and innovation. For this, we still need many new technologies that make it possible to use energy, materials and working time more efficiently – or the other way around: we need innovations to further curb the waste of resources. In Dr Lutz Steiner, we have been able to gain an experienced innovation manager who will drive these issues forward with his scientific and technical expertise and international industry experience," says Lenze CTO Frank Maier."Lenze is ideally positioned with the domain expertise of 75 years, a large international partner network and a corporate culture characterised by the courage to change. With these building blocks, my ideas and my experience, I want to continue to shape our technology roadmap and consistently focus on the sustainable digitalisation of factory automation," says Dr Steiner, describing his strategy. "As automation experts, our customers expect us to think far ahead so that they can produce more sustainably in the future and remain competitive. To achieve this, we at Lenze must create technological visions and concepts. I see that as my core task."
