Zimmermann Inc. visits Headquarters in Neuhausen

In the first week of December, we were pleased to welcome colleagues from our North American subsidiary Zimmermann Inc. to the headquarters of F. Zimmermann GmbH in Neuhausen, Germany. Team members traveled from across the United States – the East Coast, Midwest and West Coast – to participate in training sessions, strengthen connections with German colleagues and grow together on both a professional and personal level.

 Two Teams – One goal

The visiting group consisted of representatives from Sales and Service, both with a shared goal: deepening technical expertise, exchanging market insights and strengthening collaboration across borders.

 Deep insights into production and mechanical engineering

A particular highlight was the in-depth look into our production facility. The team was able to see multiple machines at different stages of the build cycle and took part in a pre-acceptance test of an FZU32 together with one of our long-standing customers. The factory tour clearly demonstrated how closely the various departments work together to build Zimmermann’s high-precision portal milling machines.

Intensive training for the service team

The entire week was devoted to practical training for the service team. The program included:
• Software training (Heidenhain and Siemens)
• Training at the Zimmermann milling head stand
• Tool changers
• Laser measurement
The focus was on application-oriented training to optimally prepare the service team for the requirements of the North American market and further strengthen the quality of service for our customers.

 Sales team: Experiencing machines live in action

At the same time, the sales team visited various customers in the region to experience Zimmermann machines directly in the field and seek personal exchange with users. The program was supplemented by product training and intensive discussions with German colleagues on technical innovations, market developments, and future product lines.

 Team spirit, exchange, and Christmas spirit

In addition to the technical program, there was also plenty of opportunity for personal exchange: joint dinners, conversations away from the daily work routine, visits to Christmas markets, and a joint Christmas party at the end of the week created a special atmosphere and strengthened team cohesion across national borders.
