Bernhard Wolz “Many textile machine builders have their development centres for pre-production machines in Europe. Their textile machines are, however, assembled in production countries such as China or India. In these cases, closeness to customers needs to be more than just an empty promise,” explains Bernhard Wolz, Key Account Manager for the textile industry at Festo. (Photo: Festo AG & Co. KG)
