AERZEN has been developing high-performance machines for industry since 1864 and is today one of the world’s leading manufacturers of machines for conveying and compressing gases. The blowers, compressors and turbos combine maximum performance, energy efficiency and reliability and set new standards in process air and compressed air generation. With the acquisition of GPE Turbo from Leipzig, AERZEN is taking the next step and significantly expanding its turbo portfolio in the upper pressure and volume flow range.

Innovative turbo solutions for high pressures and large volume flows

GPE Turbo is a proven specialist for single and multi-stage turbo solutions for the process gas industry and has many years of experience in a wide range of scopes of application as well as worldwide references. A particular strength lies in customised solutions and future-oriented technologies, such as green technologies including hydrogen applications. Our own R&D centre and in-house manufacturing enable application-specific adaptations with a short time-to-market.

The integration of GPE Turbo into the AERZEN Group leads to an extension of the product portfolio for process gas solutions to include turbo compressors with a pressure range of up to 300 bar and up to 300,000 m³/h volume flow, for example for oil and gas technology, steel production, power plant technology and chemical and process engineering. The range of single-stage turbo solutions in the low pressure segment up to 1.5 bar will also be significantly expanded.  In addition to the proven AERZEN turbo series Generation 5^plus (up to 9,400 m³/h) and Generation 5 (up to 16,200 m³/h), volume flows of up to 100,000 m³/h can now be provided. Process air applications in wastewater technology, mining and vapour compression benefit from this.

Shared DNA, same mindset

“AERZEN and GPE Turbo – that’s a perfect fit. We share the same DNA and have a consistent mindset – innovative strength, quality thinking, future orientation, consistent customising and a pronounced solution orientation. Together we define new standards and shape the success of our customers,” emphasises Klaus-Peter Glöckner, General Manager of AERZEN.

Ralf Stephani from GPE Turbo adds: “We are looking forward to working with AERZEN and the integration into the Group’s global sales and service network. This brings together our expertise and enables us to market our customised turbo solutions worldwide."
