Introduction of robotic technology<\/div>

Further extension of the production floor by 2100 m2<\/div>
\"Kaltumformen<\/a><\/div>

The expertise of aha! is in ever greater demand and customer confidence is high, with inquiries coming in for ever larger jobs. The current equipment is inadequate to cope with the volume of orders, and the in-house toolmaking section is also in need of more space. Another building is added<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

On seeing that Richard and Robert E\u00dfer have become acquainted with the business operations down to the very last detail and have emphatically proven their capability, Friedrich and Monika E\u00dfer hand over the reins to their sons,\u00a0taking aha! into the third generation as a family-run business.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

After a traineeship in banking and a degree in business studies (qualifying as a “Diplom-Kaufmann” which is similar to an MBA), Robert E\u00dfer is gradually introduced to key aspects of the company and goes on to take charge of cost accounting, sales, marketing and personnel management.

The aha! tradition of striving consistently for quality is officially recognised. In 2008 the aha! quality management system is assigned ISO 9001 certification for the first time. Since then the certificate is renewed continuously in repeat certification audits.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

Having continued to grow and steadily expand its stock of machinery, the company is bursting at the seams again. aha! acquires a 6000 m2 plot of land in Johann-Georg-Halske-Stra\u00dfe in Korschenbroich and builds a 3000 m2 plant with modern workstations and spacious staff facilities.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

The healthy growth of the company continues. The high number of orders necessitates an increase in the workforce and an expansion of the premises in 1983.
