Manufacturing Plants Share this on: Woodworking in a safe environment In the sawmill, the use of AI-based fire protection makes sure that wood is processed safely. Hegener-Hachmann GmbH & Co. KG is located in the heart of the Sauerland, one of the most wooded areas in Germany. The company is run as a family business in its fourth generation. It all started with a small watermill that powered a small saw. Today it is an innovative sawmill that offers many quality products and can respond quickly to customer requests. In 2007, the subsidiary forestry operation became an independent sawmill with a cutting capacity of approximately 25,000 solid cubic meters. Employees use state-of-the-art, high-tech equipment to carry out professional precision work for individual customer solutions. To ensure safety in production, the insurance company required the installation of a fire alarm system that would continue to monitor the premises, even under adverse circumstances.
