Interview with Mr Bäumer, head of the maintenance department at Meleghy Automotive GmbH & Co. KG

What is your position in the company?

I am the head of the maintenance department and in charge of machine maintenance, more precisely electrical and mechanical. In order to carry out this mission, I am daily surrounded by a team of seven.

What is the main core of Meleghy Automotive ?

We are an automotive supplier and produce pressed parts and joining assemblies. Most of our equipment is composed of presses and various robotized installations. We can press up to 1000 tonnes with our machines and work with many Robotized welding installations for spot welding and MAG. We produce a wide variety of assemblies, from simple to more complex automotive parts, as well as bonding or riveting.

To which extent do you work with DV Group?

We have been working with DV Group since 2019 on electronic components, mainly from Siemens. Being obsolete, we are facing component failures. That’s why we are engaging with the Dv group in terms of repairment. Meanwhile, manufacturer solutions becomes more expensive and time-consuming, we do not hesitate to seek your expertise. As we collaborate more and more, you have demonstrated your efficiency, rapidity, and professionalism.

Can you tell us something about our last cooperation? How did it go?

Our last cooperation was the repair of frequency converters, which broke down over the weekend. The defective units were picked up on Saturday from our workshop and then promptly delivered back as brand new. So far, it has always worked smoothly. We are especially satisfied with your responsiveness, given the cost of a broken-down machine, which is extremely costly. This it’s essential for our company that the repaired parts function properly.

Pourquoi avoir choisi de travailler avec DV GROUP ? Qu’attendez-vous d’un prestataire de services ?

Ce qui compte le plus pour nous : des temps de réaction courts et de la flexibilité.

Si vous faites un bilan de votre collaboration avec DV GROUP, quelles conclusions en tirez-vous ?

Tout s’est toujours bien passé avez DV GROUP alors pourquoi changer de prestataire ? De plus, nous avions déjà collaboré avec d’autres entreprises mais ça n’a pas été un succès car les produits qui revenaient chez nous étaient toujours défectueux. C’est pourquoi nous apprécions particulièrement vos bancs d’essais qui permettent de tester les produits en conditions réelles avant leurs retours en usines.

Avez-vous d’autres projets prévus avec DV GROUP ?

Nous allons prochainement procèder à la révision générale de nos PowerBlocks.
