Whether for the company's own new products and tools, or for individually specified products developed in close cooperation with the customer, the design office at ARNO HENTSCHEL GmbH has been producing highly successful drafts and designs for many years, working at modern CAD workstations and with the latest software. This is the foundation for the annual renewal of at least ten per cent of the HENTSCHEL product range: New tools are created and existing products are improved to optimise their efficiency. At the same time, product amendments and innovations can be brought through to series maturity with a minimum of delay. In the in-house toolmaking department, the new ideas of the highly qualified design engineers are then translated into practical reality.
