BERTHOLD has been a recognized specialist in control technology for many years. Ongoing system support and regular follow-up orders from existing customers show that BERTHOLD is a reliable partner in this regard.

With WTG further orders with banknote printers

Together with the close partner Water Treatment GmbH (WTG) as general contractor, two further important projects were successfully completed:

• India: Control technology for an ultrafiltration system at a banknote printing plant with a complete processing system
• Germany: Expansion of a banknote printing plant with a further ultrafiltration line and a station for acid flushing, including modernization of the existing system

BERTHOLD provides the entire EMSR part (electrical, measurement, control and regulation technology) including visualization, from engineering through production to on-site commissioning.

The latter project particularly showed how well the teams from WTG and BERTHOLD are well-coordinated:

Due to the Covid measures that were in effect at the time, the BERTHOLD technicians would not have to be personally present on site. In order to still be able to meet the promised deadlines, the technicians from WTG who were already present took over the assembly under the guidance of their colleagues from BERTHOLD.

In the course of the expansion, the two visualization computers were also renewed as a preventive measure, set up and commissioned via remote access. The subsequent commissioning took place via remote maintenance again by the technicians from BERTHOLD and the entire line went into operation as planned.

WTG based in Wr. Neustadt / Austria, as a general contractor, bundles decades of experience in the field of plant construction, among other things. The core competence lies in the planning, the process engineering, the execution and realization as well as the construction site supervision and the project management of complete processing plants.

CEO Joachim Berthold: “We are delighted that WTG repeatedly relies on BERTHOLD as a partner for projects in system-relevant industries such as banknote printing. Thank you for the long-term partnership, which is always characterized by mutual trust and appreciation! “

Further joint projects between the two Austrian high-tech companies are already being planned.

State-of-the-art control technology for sewage treatment plants

The long-term and close business relationship of the waste water association Wr. Neustadt (AWVWNS) with BERTHOLD as a specialist in control technology is a successful example of the power of bundled competencies:

The wastewater from 15 municipalities is cleaned in Wr. Neustadt. The waste water association Wr. Neustadt also operates numerous pumping stations that ensure a regulated inflow.

The pumping stations consist of wastewater collecting basins with level monitoring and overfill protection: Wastewater is collected and, depending on the level, forwarded to the sewage treatment plant by 1-3 pumps, which also serve as redundancy for each other.

With the modernization of the Schiltern and the Freies Feld pumping stations, carried out by the experienced technicians from BERTHOLD, almost all pumping stations are now state-of-the-art:

• Upstream detailed planning
• Renewal of the control cabinets
• Control modernization
• Integration into the higher-level control system
• Adjustment of the visualization

The visualizations from BERTHOLD provide a quick overview of the system status and targeted intervention if necessary.


The integration of the pumping stations into the central control system takes place – depending on the spatial distance – either wired or on a cellular basis.

BERTHOLD thanks for the long and good cooperation and is looking forward to realizing further projects to the full satisfaction of the AWVWNS!
