Successful launch of an international industry event - The WEINIG “Window and CNC Summit”

Tauberbischofsheim, 15th of November 2024 – More than 400 visitors from across 26 nations attended the event, which featured about 20 machine demonstrations, 10 specialist presentations and a huge exhibition area with nearly 40 partners. The positive response from participants clearly shows how valuable such events are for the woodworking industry. With the Window and CNC Summit, WEINIG has laid the foundation for expanding a format like this and establishing an international stage for the future of window production. 

An event that sets benchmarks 

“We don't just want to sell the machine, we want to be our customers' partner and support them. This is what makes us different,” emphasized Gregor Baumbusch, CEO of WEINIG, at the press conference. The summit was tailored to the specific requirements of the various European markets and offered a central platform for exchange between manufacturers, customers and partners. The topics ranged from trends in window production and innovations in CNC technology to the future of wood processing - with the constant focus on working together to find solutions and future-proof the industry. 

Technological leadership and comprehensive expertise 

Customers do not only choose WEINIG because of the quality of the machines, but above all because of the extensive application know-how and the partnership-based cooperation. Helmut Hilzinger, owner of hilzinger GmbH, describes it aptly: “The decision in favor of the WEINIG Conturex Vario L was made primarily due to WEINIG's commitment and clear customer orientation. On the one hand, the machine impresses with its high quality, but it is the people at WEINIG who make the crucial difference." 

Holistic solutions through strategic expansions 

WEINIG continuously invests in the further development of its portfolio and now offers a complete solution for timber window production: with the integration of Stähle Hess, surface processing has been integrated into the range and rounds off the product range perfectly. This gives WEINIG one of the broadest product portfolios in the window processing machine sector, supplemented by H.I.T. and ESSETRE in the solid wood processing sector. 

International expansion plans and investments 

WEINIG is also driving growth in the United States: The opening of the new campus in Statesville marks the starting signal for automation solutions on the American market. In addition, a new logistics and production center is being built in Tauberbischofsheim, which is scheduled for completion by the end of 2025. 

The WEINIG Window and CNC Summit has shown that the market for high-quality, customizable machines and comprehensive customer support continues to offer enormous potential. WEINIG remains dedicated to its goal of not only providing machines, but also standing by its customers as a reliable partner and actively shaping the future of woodworking.
