Nice site, some bugs though.
M-2000 series, click on procedures and either get PHP stack overflow or endless "page is being generated reload if it takes more than 30 seconds."
Also several of the sub pages come up in German
Thanks for the Info Shenion, I will send the IT dept an email regarding this.
I had also noticed that some of the sub pages in German.........its obviously not fully translated yet
We had an open day on Thursday in the UK and I think they rushed it or made it live even though its only 85% complete, just to co-incide with the open day. I imagine it'll be 100% within the next week or so.Let me know if you find anymore bugs
Cheers,
Matt

Just had a look at the website Matt. It is so obviously translated into English by a German! Having worked for Wielander & Schill for eight years I got used to reading stuff in "English".
"It needs special features to weld formidable materials. Lorch's MIG-brazing machines have the solution" Let's be honest, we wouldn't say that would we? I used to feel like telling the Germans to send me the "spiel" before they put it into print so I had could translate it properly but I must admit I enjoyed reading the effort and at least you can understand what they're getting at!
The M3030 looks familar. A customer of mine bought one at the insistence of BMW who then told them they didn't recommend MIG brazing so I set it up as a regular MIG. I could have sold them five Portamigs to do that job!

Hey Guys,
Just thought that you might like to take a look at our new look website.
www.lorch.biz
Only thing which isn't fully operational is the dealer network locator and hopefully this will be up and working within the coming week!
Hi matt
Looks like a good site to navigate around, but, and there is always a but,- I went to the free book page, filled most of the boxes, & missed one. It came back to me in German. So I filled in the missing info, then got more instructions/comments
in German, couldn't get back to English (except by going to homepage), so don't know if I've sent in my request or not. 
No such thing as a free lunch or book.
Also
("Please note: This book will be sent exclusively to companies and tradesmen. Execution of order will be considered as your confirmation to conduct such a trade.") Does this mean I can now do work on nuclear station pressure vessels.
Translation can be a pain, but this quite a good one.

I work for meself mate. Four years at Hobart Brothers, seventeen years at a welding distributor, eight years at Wielander, now its just me and my van and tool box covering everywhere. Ive just sold a 2nd hand spot welder to a customer in Brum - I'll have to call in have a look at your stuff. Can you believe a guy from Ford asked a bodyshop manager who I was and what qualification did I have to service welding equipment.
Toe rag, I bet his never got his hands dirty
I expect you know Paul Jones from Manchester. He told me he was a Lorch agent.

Received a free copy of the 'Book of Welding' from the Lorch website today. It's a hardback, which I wasn't expecting, and only took three days to get here. I haven't had chance to read it yet, but a quick flip through suggests it's a quality publication unlike the pamphlets most manufacturers put out.
Very impressed

Ditto
Good clear descriptions of specs & products.
Title 'The Book of Welding' is misleading as not much info about actual Welding
