Whether with complete constructions or “only” laboratory furniture – clients are increasingly confronted with more regulations and different specialist companies, which they need to understand and coordinate. WALDNER is able to offer its customers comprehensive support in this: “For some time now we have been offering...

From design planning to construction, what applies to Industry 4.0, the fourth industrial revolution, is also set to apply to the construction industry in the coming years: complete digitalisation. BIM, building information modelling, has proved itself as a coordination tool for Construction 4.0. For some, building information modelling (BIM) is already an indispensable tool in the creation process of a building, whereas for others it is nothing more than hype. Does BIM seem to have become stuck in the pilot phase in Germany? One thing is certain: the Federal Ministry for Transport and...

BUILDING INFORMATION MODELING is a design planning method, which involves the generation and administration of digital, virtual representations - including the physical and functional properties of a building. The 3D models of the building are based on a comprehensive database of information, which can ideally be accessed throughout the entire life cycle, from planning to decommissioning. CULTURAL SHIFT STARTS OFFLINE Miguel Diez is one of the BIM-Specialists at WALDNER. > Markus Hammes adds: "Of course it needs someone to take responsibility for this process. Admittedly the architect is...

20 YEARS OF LABORATORY EXPERTS’ SYMPOSIUM It is now the only annual Laboratory Experts’ Symposium: the company looks back with pride and gratitude over 20 years of the WALDNER Symposium – and announces the topics for this year. planners, architects, facilities managers and suppliers have been tracking new trends together for 20 years. Many of them have now become everyday, self-evident requirements or have even developed into standalone company divisions, rather like WALDNER DIMENSIONS. “The Experts’ Symposium would never have become what it is today – an established and sought-after...

SECURELY PROTECTED AROUND THE WORLD WALDNER DEVELOPS HERMETIC OUTER PACKAGING FOR INHALER How can an inhaler, vital for life, the size of a mobile phone, be securely packaged and at the same time easy to open? WALDNER mastered this challenge for a global pharmaceutical company with an ingenious filling and Photo: Shutterstock sealing machine. Medical products are sold in many countries around the globe where they are faced by the most diverse climate conditions, whether extremely high air humidity or, by contrast, extremely dry air. There is lower air pressure at sea level than in the Andes...

98% efficiency in a highlysensitive working environment Functions, including active recipe and program management (active directory), as well as batch data selection and tracking by the higher-level line control, are now standard with the latest DOSOMATS for secondary packaging. Not a single parameter of the machine or recipe data can be changed without the person’s access authorisation, as well as a time stamp, being recorded and saved. In these highly sensitive working conditions, a minimum efficiency of 98% was also a prerequisite. Tightly sealed and easy to open – a person weighing 100...

The shape of the Med Campus, which is built on a slope, is also sustainable: differently-sized layers of the building, arranged according to the primary wind direction, ensure that the important supply of fresh air to the city in the valley is not significantly impaired on account of this new building. FLAGSHIP PROJECT FOR SUSTAINABILITY Photos: paul ott photografiert MED CAMPUS GRAZ The Med Campus in Graz represents a flagship project for sustainability and an environment that fosters research. WALDNER equipped large parts of the massive building complex.

Because of the slim shape of the building, the laboratory and office modules are positioned at right angles to the facade and all corridors are parallel to the facade. "All the documentation zones are therefore directly by the windows and as soon as someone enters the corridor from a laboratory or office he or she will look directly outside on the other side,” explains Dr. Christoph Heinekamp. There is a line of sight to the next building. A further positive effect: "This means that all the corridors are always out of security restricted areas.” There were also a few sceptics about the...
