Heating tools for professionals

Welcome to Sievert – Swedish design and quality since 1882

Sievert AB is a world leading manufacturer specializing in high-quality heating tools for professionals.

Sievert products represent today’s most advanced technology.

Sievert’s goal is to develop, manufacture and supply innovative and high-quality tools for all types of soldering, brazing and heating applications.

This statement is not just a definition of the Sievert product range – it is also a promise. A promise that Sievert will always be one step ahead and always listen to you – our customer – and involve ourselves in your business. A promise that we will be wherever you are. A promise that Sievert will be the partner to help you succeed when you use our products and services.

Sievert have been in business for more than 130 years, and today we are a world leader. But still our work has only just begun. Carl Richard Nyberg was a specialist in soldering, but he felt that the soldering technology available in the 1880´s could be greatly improved. He was determined to find a heating source that was more efficient. After much experimentation he succeeded in finding a solution, and in 1882 he made the first prototype of a soldering blowtorch for which he also obtained a patent.

That same year the future industrialist, Max Sievert, opened the doors of a machinery business in Stockholm that would form the foundation of a major company. When the paths of Nyberg and Sievert later crossed, they formed a partnership that was uncommonly fruitful. Nyberg manufactured blowtorches, and Sievert sold them throughout the world. A successful business was launched.

Welcome to Sievert.

Bedford Model Engineering Society

Filed Under: Engineering Clubs, Model Railway

The Bedford model engineering society was formed in 1948 to promote interest in model engineering of all kinds, be it on rail road or water.

For many, model engineering is about building and driving steam locomotives, however interests in the society range from clock making to building half size steam lorries. Many of the members have no training in engineering, they are just a bunch of like minded people who love to build things, usually out of metal. One of the best things about the society is the amount of knowledge that many of the members have and their enthusiasm for sharing it.

Beamish Model Engineering Group

Filed Under: Engineering Clubs, Model Railway

The Beamish Model Engineering Group (BMEG) was started in 1991. Membership was drawn from the Wallsend Technical Institute and the Chester-le Street Model engineering Club. Initially the group was closely associated with the Friends of Beamish in building of embankments and other infra- structure. There has been considerable interchange of members between the two groups depending on interests.

Many BMEG members are building locomotives to Ken Swan’s design including various versions of Koppel, Wren, Jessie, six wheeled versions of Bridget, and Neptune. The latter developed from a Neptune shipyard engine. However the Beamish Model Engineering Group are chiefly building railway buildings and structures such as a carriage sheds, water towers, ticket offices etc.
