Riemann is responsible for all areas relating to the production of industrial diesel engines, drive components (crankshafts, connecting rods) and special systems (power and energy supply, pumps). In addition, he is also responsible for the production and pre-assembly plant in the Czech Republic, as well as New Diesel Italy, a Hatz company specializing in the production of mechanical injection components.
