Mittweida Gearbox Day

Hardly any other component epitomises Mechanical Engineering quite like the gear. And surely no other region is as closely associated with the gear as Chemnitz and its surrounding area. At the heart of the matter is the question of how our economy can remain competitive and at the forefront of technology through innovative and sustainable solutions in this field.
