Products that deliver on their promises

To guarantee the high quality of its products at all times, RK Rose+Krieger operates an excellent testing laboratory. Here, the specialist for connection and positioning systems conducts extensive tests across all product areas – from year-round test cycles to random batch inspections. Customer inquiries are also thoroughly examined before a decision on implementation is made. Because at RK Rose+Krieger, it is: We say what we can do and do what we say! However, we also state what we cannot do and do not do it!

"We only specify values in our product catalogs that have been reliably proven through extensive testing. Additionally, in our testing laboratory, we thoroughly examine possible customer-specific special applications of our products based on the customer requirements," explains Lukas Göking, Product Manager at RK Rose+Krieger, and continues: "Visitors are repeatedly impressed that we, as a medium-sized company, maintain such a well-equipped testing laboratory."

The advantage for the customer is clear: they can rely on the specified performance data and receive products that actually deliver the promised performance over the stated lifespan, often even longer. For example, it is possible for hydraulic cylinders, which operate under low load conditions (1000 N), to withstand an incredible 45,000 cycles instead of the guaranteed 10,000 double strokes. By providing as accurate and complete a specification of customer requirements as possible, premature failures or production stoppages due to incorrect performance data are virtually eliminated.
