Strong brands for our customers
What we do
Walterscheid Powertrain Group is the global industry leader for highly engineered, mission critical powertrain systems and services for demanding off-highway and industrial applications. Together with a global network of 130 distribution partners, Walterscheid Powertrain Group ensures expertise, innovative technological solutions and customer-oriented services worldwide.
FOCUSSING ON CUSTOMERS’ NEEDS!
Whilst the provision of innovative and highly effective technological solutions directly aims at globally leading OEMs, the Aftermarket and Service Business, there is an underlying objective looking at society at large: To provide sustainable solutions that equally take care of economic, ecological and social requirements.
On the one hand, future-oriented solutions must build on expertise, know-how and experiences created in the past. One the other hand, however, these solutions must reach beyond today’s horizon.
Global population growth clearly requires increases in production, whilst clearly limited – and partly overused – natural resources require more consideration, more protection, less usage and more replacement by renewable and/or more intelligent solutions.
Increased efficiency of equipment is at the core of reducing environmental strains. It is against this background, and for providing our customers with the best possible and sustainable technologies, that we also strongly invest in Smart & Connected powertrain solutions.
AFTERMARKET AND SERVICE BUSINESS
The Aftermarket and Service Business of Walterscheid Powertrain Group is taken care of by 20 service locations which handle and ship about 20,000 spare parts daily. WPG’s Aftermarket Service Portfolio is provided to OEM customers and end users, it is supported by strong own brands and characterised by three key features:
VALUE ADDED SERVICES
The network of qualified Service Centers across Europe enables WPG to service shafts within a few hours and also to provide emergency service. The goal of these facilities is to help customers improve the operational performance of their equipment while lowering their total cost of ownership.
Assembling and repairing with original components is a must regarding quality and safety. Using original spare parts offers you many advantages:
