It’s 2022 now! And everything is different.

Well, that was fast. Soon, 2022 will celebrate its half-time and a lot has changed. Not for the better, of course, but at least it has changed. The wish of so many that this stupid pandemic should no longer dominate the news has largely been fulfilled. Yay! Now, a real, full blown war is raging right in our backyard, complete with sanctions, energy shortages, once more improved supply chain problems and skyrocketing inflation. Who wouldn’t prefer that to the imposition of having to wear masks?

So to make sure our year 2022 doesn’t remain all too uneventful (and to give us a few more reasons to complain as well) we decided (in 2019, to be exact) to send no less than three machines and five people to exhibit at SMTconnect 2022 in Nuremberg. How that turned out, can be read here.

Soon it will be 2022! Everything remains different!

Oh yes – the only constant is change. What this ancient slogan lacks in creativity, it makes up for in topicality. After we believed in the summer of 2021 that the tiresome topic of the pandemic would soon be history, the hopeful  spring breeze turned out to be a fluid-dynamic harbinger of the approaching fourth wave in fall.

But because our staff, which is now almost 100% vaccinated, is no longer seriously impressed by such minor inconveniences, we urgently needed a global supply chain crisis on top of all – just so that no one in the manufacturing industry could complain that business was going too easily at the moment.

Fortunately, we are a small company that has never been able to afford modern trends like “just in time”, nor have we ever wanted to. That’s why our warehouses are, well, not completely empty yet. We traditionally strive to provide the best service to our customers and usually don’t let adverse circumstances stop us. If the customer’s need is great enough, we do not hesitate to relieve one of our demo machines of the spare part that is currently not available otherwise.

In the midst of this – why not call it what it is – clusterfuck, we have decided to ride out the fourth wave in full and present ourselves at Productronica 2021. Anyone who was interested and has the courage to do so was welcome to visit us there – and surprisingly many did! If you want to know what we think of the whole ordeal, be our guest.

Never before in AMADYNE’s 20-year history have times been as interesting as they were in 2020/21, and so far we have managed everything with some dignity. We will continue to do so, even though we – like our customers – are certainly longing for a few exceptionally boring months.

Depending on external circumstances, we may not always be able to or allowed to make personal visits to your premises, but even then we still have plenty of opportunities to address your problems, questions and wishes. Let’s just talk about it. With pleasure also in a video conference.
