NRW parliament Vice-President visits Schmale

July 2018

NRW parliament Vice-President Angela Freimuth, together with other FDP politicians and a delegation of the SIHK from Hagen, visited Schmale Maschinenbau GmbH. During her visit, the skilled toolmaker learned about the latest technical developments in mechanical engineering.

As spokeswoman for the FDP parliamentary group for science and research in the state parliament, Mrs. Freimuth was particularly interested in the field of research and development in mechanical engineering. In this segment, we have been very active in recent years and surprise the professional world time and again with technical innovations.

This fall, our company will present several new developments that are currently under construction. In this context, we were also able to talk to the politicians about the challenges involved in implementing Industry 4.0 issues, especially for small and medium-sized enterprises.

Above all, we would like to see a reduction in bureaucracy, for example when applying for funding projects. A short video (voiceover only in german)  of the visit can be found in our Youtube channel.
