Liebherr skiving day roundup
On March 16 in Kempten, we held our Liebherr skiving day, and it was a complete success! We were truly inspired by our customers – and all those fascinated by skiving – who showed up for the event. It was a great opportunity for our experts and partners to talk about their passions. They gave several exciting talks on various topics relating to modern gear skiving. Among other things, we presented our latest LK 500 gear skiving machine and talked about the productivity increases made possible by digitalization and our high-quality gear skiving tools.
Our customers were also given the unique opportunity to experience our gear skiving machines up close and in action during a factory tour. We were delighted to receive numerous positive comments from the participants. This sort of feedback is really motivating. It encourages us to continuously come up with innovative and high-quality products to serve our customers. We would therefore like to thank everyone who was there, who supported us and who helped make this day such a success.
