Customers first.
Customers are at the very center of all Voith’s activities.

What are the defining characteristics of a healthy partnership? Offering the best products? Contributing experience? Most of all – it needs one thing: Relations. We are telling of such relations. Relations between Voith and its customers.

“In addition to the engineering specifications, this project places high demands on logistics and the need to meet really tight deadlines.”

(Steffen Schaarschmidt, Head of prototype construction at Voith Engineering Services)

As the word says, a mock-up is a copy of something real – sometimes such a good copy that it is impossible to distinguish it from the real thing. But does it have to be an entire metro? Yes, it does.

“I have got to know experts from various countries, have observed how our international colleagues grow into their roles, have myself learned a lot from them and have seen that the customer was satisfied.”

Jörn Brand (Site Manager at Voith Industrial Services)

Satisfied customers – every member of the more than 43,000-strong Voith workforce does their part every day to help achieve this goal. And knowledge sharing is one of the cornerstones of this success.

Voith is a pioneer in respect of innovations and technology. With around 400 new patents each year Voith belongs to the top 20 patent applicants in Germany.

Precondition for really new products is an open corporate culture.
Research and development as well as fastest possible time to market of new products have become decisive competition factors.

“Climate change and diminishing resources are a challenge. Yet they also present opportunities for growth with new solutions."

(Dr. Hubert Lienhard, President & CEO)

Hydro power stations from Voith supply climate-friendly energy worldwide. Voith is at the forefront with all developments of new forms of regenerative energy generation: for example the potential of the oceans that has so far hardly been exploited.

Thanks to Voith technology, buses and rail systems in megacities operate reliably, safely and eco-friendly.

Voith equips buses and rail systems in large conurbations with the latest technology – from automatic couplers to hybrid drives. Voith therefore makes a significant contribution to modern, safe and eco-friendly mobility of people and goods.

Higher after press dryness and considerable energy savings with NipcoFlex T, our proven shoepress for tissue production worldwide!

The new SensoTension LC sensors ensure constant belt tension in your wire, press and dryer sections.

InForce can be stressed like steel and is gentle like polyurethane. The highest dewatering performance is possible due to maximized surface designs.

With high efficiency, the Vorecon controls the speed of pumps and compressors. The power transmission is up to 50 Megawatts – equal to the power of 90 formula 1 racing cars! A survey taken in 2013 has shown another impressive value: a reliability of 99.98%.

Small hydropower plants make mostly use of rivers with no large dams and reservoirs. They are either grid connected or they can also be used for isolated homes, small communities or rural industry in off-grid remote areas – and improve the livelihood of many people all over the globe.

From fast spare parts delivery and custom-engineered service products to effective training and our worldwide on-site service: You benefit from Voith Service thanks to our expertise in the field of rail vehicles.

They are flexible, dynamic and highly efficient: pumped storage power plants. Thanks to their mature technology, they can quickly store surplus electrical energy and feed the grids when the demand for energy is high.

Worldwide: In response to the extreme demands of public transportation the DIWA automatic transmission is Voith´s answer.
