Operating safety in vacuum generation with Busch
Busch vacuum pumps are at the centre of a report in the current issue of the journal JOT (Journal für Oberflächentechnik). The report mentions a manufacturer of coating technology solutions which has increased its operating safety through use of vacuum pumps from Busch. Since Trendelburg-based BlueTec have been relying on Busch's dry-running Cobra pumps for pre-vacuum generation, sediments within the vacuum pump are a thing of the past. As a result the risk of production losses caused by faults in vacuum generation is substantially reduced. The positive experiences led to the fitting of a second production plant with Cobra vacuum pumps from Busch.

Professional Training Made in Germany
The mayor of Virginia Beach, William D. Sessoms, visited the Busch company in Maulburg with a delegation of local business developers for the second time. Busch is a big employer in Virginia Beach and maintains a big production plant for vacuum pumps. Sessoms plans to start an apprenticeship initiative for professions in the metal industry and wants to cooperate with Busch on this project.
The dual educational system in Germany which combines apprenticeships in a company and vocational education at a vocational school in one course is completely unknown in the USA. In the US professional qualifications are rare and reserved to a few dedicated professions. As a consequence modern factories in the metalworking industry – like Busch Manufacturing LLC – struggle to find qualified staff.
The visit gave the mayor and his delegation the chance to experience first hand how the dual system in organized at Busch.
The host Dr. Karl Busch told his visitors that he welcomed and supported the apprenticeship initiative. He emphasized that the profound professional training provided at his Maulburg plant made it relatively easy to have qualified staff and grow know-how. In the US on the other hand he had to rely on inhouse-training to make up for the missing basic knowledge of staff.

Energy savings with new vacuum technology
The latest edition of the German trade journal 'Allgemeine Papier-Rundschau' reports on the use of Busch Mink vacuum pumps in the manufacture of corrugated cardboard. A corrugated cardboard manufacturer has replaced its vacuum pumps, originally used for handling cardboard cut-outs, with Mink pumps. Due to the state-of-the-art claw technology, Mink pumps work very economically. As a result, this corrugated cardboard manufacturer has been able to realise energy cost savings of €13,000. As they are free from maintenance and wear, Mink claw vacuum pumps enable further massive savings on operating costs, due to the elimination of costs for spare parts and maintenance. In addition, the noise level is reduced by half.

District administrator Schneider visited Busch
For an informative exchange of ideas, district administrator Walter Schneider visited Busch in Maulburg together with the economy agent Andrea Lutz.
In a motivated conversation various topics were discussed with the owner family Busch.
Dr.-Ing. Karl Busch said that globalisation was "one of the best gifts of this century, since it creates jobs, also in Germany". He also gave examples for it: Generally all Busch companies worldwide work together very closely and profit from each other.
For large orders some vacuum pumps are produced in Maulburg and completed to vacuum systems somewhere else in the world. Afterwards they are delivered to national customers. This division of labour creates jobs not only in Germany but also abroad. Therefore Busch is successful in fast growing global markets such as the solar industry or at the production of flat screens.
Another subject, which was important to district administrator Walter Schneider was the professional education at Busch. He was told that Busch had trainees in seven different professions and worked closely together with the schools and the DHWB (University of Cooperative Education).
At a tour of the company, district administrator Walter Schneider and Andrea Lutz were able to get an impression of a modern industrial plant, which is globally successful and has its roots and headquarters in Lörrach.

Cooking with Vacuum technology from Maulburg
Celebrity chef Stefan Marquard uses Busch vacuum technology for vacuum refining.
The refining of food under vacuum, known as "Sous-Vide" is a gentle way of cooking, which gets more and more followers also in the Haute Cuisine.
Stefan Marquard who is known from different TV shows such as "Die Kochprofis" and "Restaurant sucht Chef" relies on Busch vacuum pumps, which are "Made in Maulburg".
When vacuum refining of meat, vegetables or fruit everything is packaged under vacuum and then refined gently in the bag at low temperatures.
When food is prepared like this, it has quality advantages compared to normal cooked food because the natural taste and the flavours remain. The food also doesn't become dry. In the gastronomy it has also the advantage of longer defensibility and the food can be prepared faster after being refined.
Busch has been aware of this trend and therefore delivers the adequate vacuum pumps to a company, which produces the complete cooking units for vacuum refinery.
In canteen kitchens this way of cooking has been known for a while. Just in recent years the Haute Cuisine has discovered this way of cooking, too and more and more celebrity chefs cook under vacuum.
Lately the General Manager of the Busch Produktions GmbH in Maulburg, Ralf Kappertz has symbolically handed over a vacuum pump to TV chef Stefan Marquard during a big cooking event at the Starnberger See.
At the following big buffet the invited people were able to assure themselves of the advantages of "Sous-Vide".

Vacuum pump for THG
Busch donated a high performance vacuum pump to the Theodor-Heuss-School.
The principal Wolfgang Stocker and the responsible person for natural sciences Karlheinz Abt were very thankful when Dr. Karl Busch and Sami Busch handed over the vacuum pump shortly before summer break.
The vacuum pump will mainly be used in physics in order to make different experiments.
Maulburg's company Busch has been obliged to the THG for many years.
Since 2001 Sami Busch has been chairman of the "Freunde des Gymnasiums e.V.".
Dr. Karl Busch was also chairman for many years and was appointed to the honorary chairman in 2007.
The now donated vacuum pump was produced in the Maulburger Busch manufacturing plant. It is a pump version, which was constructed by Karl Busch 45 years ago. The follow-up models are still market leader and over two million of those vacuum pumps from Maulburg are used all over the world.
