Restarting the first relocated machining centres while the wider plant move continued
The first phase required existing machinery to be decommissioned, disconnected and prepared for transport from Hannover to Laatzen. Geometry had to be measured before disassembly so the machines could be reassembled and commissioned at the new site.
Decommissioning, transport, reassembly and utility installation under one project team
Project management coordinated the first-phase relocation, while the assembly team handled mechanical and electrical disconnections, packing, transport and reassembly.
