Meet Ronald Ebbers, a seasoned professional with 40 years in automation, leading BACHMANN’s maritime business since 2008. From the Netherlands, Ronald and the BACHMANN team are dedicated to being an “enabler” for their customers, providing the advanced technology needed to realize groundbreaking solutions in the maritime sector. At BACHMANN, we don’t just supply hardware and software; we empower our partners to achieve their visions for the future of shipping. Our comprehensive offerings support autonomous shipping, ensuring vessels operate with unprecedented precision and safety. We also drive smart maintenance, leveraging data and intelligent systems to optimize vessel performance and reduce downtime. Furthermore, BACHMANN is at the forefront of sustainable shipping, developing solutions that contribute to a greener, more efficient maritime industry. Our commitment to innovation is evident in our standard-setting redundancy features, crucial for reliable automation processes, and our specialized developments like hydraulic valve controllers and single isolated I/O modules, tailored to meet the unique demands of the marine environment. From our early days with no industry references, we’ve grown to be a trusted partner with numerous successful projects. We are particularly proud of the first vessels utilizing our redundant controllers, setting new benchmarks for operational resilience. Our technology also powers new projects for sustainable shipping, including hydrofoiling vessels designed for efficient crew transfer. A testament to our robust capabilities is our involvement in the automation of the world’s largest crane, a colossal structure over 300 meters high, capable of lifting up to 6,000 tons, used for installing 20-megawatt wind turbines. This project underscores BACHMANN’s role in advancing both maritime and renewable energy sectors. Working at BACHMANN is a collaborative and supportive experience, where every colleague is eager to help and learn. This dedicated team spirit is palpable to our customers, who appreciate our commitment to solving their complex challenges.
