High-tech and innovation:

On November 12, 2024, Capricorn Composite GmbH in Meuspath opened its doors to the Wirtschaftsförderungsgesellschaft am Mittelrhein and IT.Region Koblenz e.V. The company Capricorn Composite GmbH is one of the pioneers in the processing of fiber composites based on carbon fibers and supplies its innovative products to industries such as the automotive industry, motorsport, medical technology and aviation.

The visit began with an impressive presentation by Mr. Arndt Hartelt, CTO of the company: The company not only demonstrated its technological expertise, but also the range of possible applications for its lightweight, heavy-duty components. The participants were then given exclusive insights into the production processes - accompanied by Production Manager Daniel von Landenberg.

Insight into the future of manufacturing technology

The demonstration of the entire manufacturing process was particularly impressive. Under high pressure and at high temperatures, a product is ultimately created that impresses with its stability, lightness and durability - ideal properties for demanding applications in future-oriented industries.

IT and industry in dialog

This visit opened up new perspectives for the IT.region Koblenz: The combination of state-of-the-art manufacturing technology with digitalized processes and IT solutions became tangible with concrete examples. Participants were able to experience first-hand how digital technologies increase efficiency and precision in manufacturing and what significance they have for the future of production.

Business development meets innovation

For the WFG am Mittelrhein, the visit was a valuable opportunity to experience the innovative strength and competitiveness of regional companies at close quarters. Such companies play a decisive role in the economic strength of the region, as they are not only technological leaders, but also provide important impetus for the further development of the location. The exchange on site also offered new approaches to promote cooperation and further expand the synergies between business and innovation.

The day showed that the Middle Rhine region has a strong foundation to withstand global competition - thanks to companies such as Capricorn Composite, which are shaping the future with high-tech and innovative spirit and offer employees in a rural region challenging local jobs.
