A spin-off with 170 years of experience

wivra GmbH is a spin-off of Witzenmann in Pforzheim. We bring condition monitoring to the very component where the load actually occurs.

The company

wivra is a spin-off of Witzenmann.

The Witzenmann Group is a worldwide partner for demanding engineering challenges involving vibration decoupling, expansion compensation, media conveyance and assembly compensation in piping systems. Out of this experience and the concrete needs of our customers came the idea of no longer estimating the condition of expansion joints and pipings, but actually measuring it.

That is what wivra now stands for: making piping systems and expansion joints intelligent.
