NORMA Group starts operating new assembly system in Gerbershausen
Gerbershausen/Maintal, Germany, 17 September 2012 – NORMA Group, a global market and technology leader for engineered joining technology, has put a new assembly system into operation in its Gerbershausen, Germany, facility. The system manufactures joining elements for exhaust pipes for an internationally operating automotive group. The new 'Euro Coupler' joint caters to the needs of the automotive industry to build more lightweight passenger cars, avoid leakage and reduce CO2-emissions. Christine Lieberknecht, prime minister of the state of Thuringia, put the assembly system into operation on 14 September, 2012. It will produce about 70,000 joining elements for exhaust pipes per week.
'The upgrade of our production facility in Gerbershausen highlights the growing demand for our innovative weight and cost saving joining solutions. We register demand for our engineered technology from industries across the globe, which also secures the future of our production in Germany,' says Werner Deggim, CEO of NORMA Group. Klaus-Hartmut Scherf, the Gerbershausen plant manager, adds: 'The major order combined with the new assembly system substantially strengthens our local business. We welcome this opportunity to create additional jobs in the region.'
The Gerbershausen production facility of NORMA Germany GmbH, a subsidiary of NORMA Group AG, was founded in 1992 and stretches over 23,700 m² in total. Each day, about 150 employees at the facility manufacture approximately 1.5 million joining elements, which are shipped around the world and applied in the automotive industry, the aviation and shipbuilding sector as well as in infrastructure projects.
