DMG MORI honors TOP suppliers and partners

Bielefeld // At the pre-EMO show at DECKEL MAHO in Pfronten and this year's “DMG MORI Partner Summit”, DMG MORI honored partners and suppliers – some virtually, some live – with the “DMG MORI Partner Award 2021”. Five companies in particular impressed with their innovative and intensive cooperation: Siemens, Matsue Yamamoto, Pragati Automation and Fuchs Petrolub as well as Integrity Next.

For the first time, the “DMG MORI Partner Award” was also handed out for excellent performance in the area of sustainability. Integrity Next's compliance platform offers consistent monitoring of holistic sustainability performance along the entire value chain. Today, more than 200 DMG MORI TOP suppliers are already using Integrity Next for their self-disclosure – by the end of the year, this number will rise to over 1,500.

Dr.-Eng. Masahiko Mori: “Suppliers and partners have a high priority at DMG MORI. They make a strategically significant contribution to our premium claim. DMG MORI has therefore focused on the highest quality, sustainability and innovation from the very beginning. Today's award winners have once again exceeded our high expectations.”

Christian Thönes: “Stable partnerships are more important than ever in today's world. The technology shift – automation, digitization, sustainability – can only be managed together with strong partners. Resilience in the supply chain is a significant success factor."

In the run-up to EMO in Milan (October 4-9, 2021), DMG MORI presents a total of 25 completely climate-neutral high-tech machines at the Pre-EMO Show in Pfronten from September 20 to 25, 2021 – live on site and also digitally. The focus will be on more than 10 holistic automation solutions for workpiece and pallet handling with cell controller technology as well as the driverless transport system TH-AGV for autonomous tool transport between machines and the central tool magazine. Another highlight is the new digital subscription business model PAYZR. With “PAY with Zero Risk”, customers benefit from fast innovation cycles without risk – with maximum flexibility, cost and price transparency and thus maximum planning reliability.
