Hyundai Czech Doubles Press Shop Capacity

Hyundai Motor Manufacturing Czech (HMMC) has doubled press shop capacity by installing a second press machine of the South-Korean company Rotem Hyundai at its Nosovoce plant. So far, production of pressed parts has been carried out using only one pressing machine on three-shift production. The press shop produces 54 different parts for the Hyundai i30/i30cw, Hyundai ix20 and Kia Venga cars.

HMMC aims to boost annual production capacity from current 200 thousand to 300 thousand cars by this autumn. The company will therefore introduce a third shift and increase the number of employees by 1,000 to about 3,600.
