Installing 120 tonnes of machinery and equipment at a new Hungarian manufacturing facility, including precision placement of a melting furnace and multi-OEM coordination.

The Challenge
Installing 120 tonnes of machinery from multiple OEMs inside a fixed 60-day programme
The Tier 1 automotive supplier required machinery and equipment installed at a new European headquarters and manufacturing facility. The 120-tonne equipment package included a melting furnace that required precise positioning, with several OEM interfaces to coordinate during the installation.
Our Solution
Heavy handling, precision furnace positioning and multi-OEM coordination under one installation programme
The team managed loading and unloading, internal movement, positioning and machinery installation using forklifts, cherry pickers and high-capacity cranes.
Project sequencing coordinated the installation programme and the interfaces between the client, OEM teams and site activities through the 60-day programme.
