Hirata expands location in Mainz
Hirata Engineering Europe is expanding its site in Mainz in response to future development trends in the field of electromobility. From May 2019, part of the design and production will move to a new location in Mainz-Hechtsheim.
The entire Powertrain division, which deals with the planning, design and manufacture of systems for the production of gearboxes, motors and batteries for the automotive industry, is moving into its own hall with adjoining offices. In over 2,500m2 of office and production space, more than 30 of the 65 employees in the Mainz-Hechtsheim industrial estate will in future produce complete turnkey systems, such as a fully automated assembly system for drive components for electric vehicles.
Special machine construction with complete and partial systems for small parts assembly and palletizing as well as the production of semi-standard products will remain at the previous location in Mainz-Gonsenheim.
