Harald Pecher

Dipl. Ing. Univ. Electrical Engineering

The investigation of complex problems and damage to rotating machinery has accompanied me my entire professional life. During my many years of working at the Allianz Centre for Technology, I was able to acquire in-depth knowledge as a technical expert for turbomachinery. The focus of my expertise is on machine diagnostics and damage investigations, primarily on steam turbine generator sets.


Due to my comprehensive training, my continuous professional development, and my many years of experience in solving complex, interdisciplinary problems, I can now carry out holistic damage investigations in a leading role both on the steam side, and on the generator and transformer side.


Thanks to my many years of experience in various positions and with varying tasks at MAN AG, manroland AG and the Allianz Centre for Technology, I have learned to integrate quickly into different teams. Therefore, I view interdisciplinary cooperation within an extensive network as the self-evident prerequisite to being able to cover all necessary aspects of a complex damage investigation.
