About Wald Antriebe
Wald Antriebe (HANSA Export GmbH) is a solutions provider for rail technology, commercial vehicle technology and industrial technology based in Walsrode. The company supports customers from the project idea through 3D development to series production, developing individual solutions in the fields of wiper technology, switching technology and actuator motor technology. For wiper systems, Wald Antriebe covers the entire value chain: from the pre-development of materials and coatings through custom-specific designs to production, final assembly and lifetime testing. In the in-house prototype shop, functional, production-grade prototypes of all system components are built. Finished wiper systems are tested 24/7 with sensor monitoring to SAE standards on the original vehicle windshields. Series parts are manufactured in-house or by production partners in Europe and Asia according to the company's own specifications; final assembly of the complete system including EOL acceptance always takes place in Germany. Customers include rail manufacturers, commercial vehicle manufacturers, machinery and plant engineers and their suppliers.
