Spring-WS automatic wsdl exposure feature is based on conventions described at http://docs.spring.io/spring-ws/site/reference/html/server.html#server-automatic-wsdl-exposure

The tutorial you use as a starting point is using annotations instead of namespace, but there should be a way to specify requestSuffix and responseSuffix properties mentioned in the documentation. However I am afraid that you can not keep them blank.

Alternatively you can expose manually written WSDL. I suggest to do that since you have wsdl given from the beginning.
