Weak economic situation: The decline in mechanical engineering orders continues in Germany

class=”sc-29f61514-0 icZBHN”>

Orders are decreasing: Mechanical engineers in Germany have been feeling the pressure brought by the global economic situation in recent months. (archive image)

Domestic orders fell 13 percent. A 24 percent decline in foreign jobs was recorded in the export-oriented sector. “Unfortunately, given the ongoing collapse in the global economy, there are no signs of recovery in orders from home and abroad,” said Olaf Wortmann, economic expert at VDMA in Frankfurt.

In the less volatile three-month period from June to August 2023, orders fell 16 percent compared to the same period last year. According to the information obtained, companies are still benefiting from the order buffer that provides a 1.7 percent real production increase in the January-July period compared to the same period last year.

But this buffer is melting. Overall, the mechanical engineering association expects a 2.0 percent real decline in production for 2023. As the association recently announced, a minus of 2.0 percent is expected next year as well.
