Terms of Business
valid from 01.04.2011
1. Scope
The customer accepts our sales and deliveryconditions as being binding when placing an order. Any purcha-sing conditions of our customers are valid only after we have accepted them explicitly and in writing. Alterations as well as collateral agreements are null and void, unless they are confirmed by us in writing.
2. Offers
Our offers are without engagement on principle with regard to price, quantity, delivery period and possibilities of delivery. Alterations of the goods concerning appearance or techniques are permissible without special notice provided that the article is not affected in its function.
3. Products
The specifications in our catalogue or in leaflets about products we deliver correspond to the latest developments in technology. Illustrations, given measures and weights are non-binding. The given weights include the weight of the standard packing. Our products are subject to a con-stant further development. Only the information given by us with the acknowledgement of order is valid. There is no obligation to notify of alterations made.
4. Prices
The prices on the day of delivery are decisive. They are to be understood ex works or ex agent’s stock., exclusive freight, postage, packing, inu-rance. Alterations in price are subject to change without notice. Part deli-veries are acceptable. Products that are not listed are subject to a price increase because of their special production. Their price is given as a recommended price and then fixed after the production. When special products are delivered, the quantity ordered may not be exceeded or fall short.
The prices quoted are basic prices without turnover tax (value-added tax).
5. Delivery periods
Delivery periods are determined thoroughly, but they are without obligation. The delivery period starts with the date of the acknowledgement. We may withdraw from deli-very obligations completely or in parts because of an Act of God. Circumstances that hinder, compli-cate or endanger delivery, payment or the sale of our products as directed cancel the obligations to deliver or to do preliminary work.
The non-compliance with the delivery deadlines confirmed by us does not authorize the customer to claim for damages or to rescind the contract. Indirect damage is especially excluded.
6. Despatch
Delivery is effected on account and the customer bears the transport risk. We have fulfilled our obligation to deliver when the goods leave our stock. If not agreed otherwise, the delivery of the goods is effected by a carrier of our choice.

7. Warranty
Complaints because of open or hidden defects have to be notified in writing within 8 days after receipt of the goods. When the deadline has expired, the goods are considered to be delivered duly. If the warranty claims are found to be justified, the customer has a legitimate claim to be re-supplied. The customer is not entitled to change, reduce or to claim damages.
8. Reserved Ownership
The goods delivered remain our property in every repair until they have been paid completely. The customer does not have the right to transfer our goods as security or to confiscate them. If the goods delivered are resold before they have been paid completely, the demand for the purchase price of the customer against third parties replaces the goods.
9. Return goods
We charge the customer with 30% of the net value of the goods or with 20 € at least for handling and restoring of return goods that are not due to us. Special tailor made measuring instruments are generally not able to be returned. The customer covers the cost for items to be returned.
10. Production and Legal Venues
The production venue for deliveries and the venue for payments is Dettingen, the legal venue for both parts is Kirchheim/Teck.
11. Miscellaneous
If particular regulations of these sales and delivery conditions are or are going to be null and void, the validity of the other regulations is not concerned thereby.
