the New plant significantly nowocześniejszy from the poznań factory that manufactures Caddy and Transporter T5. If in Poznan automation welding reaches 38%. it is under Wrześnią this level reaches 70 percent. Automation is also associated with detail size: such large elements to be used in the production of a Crafter, a worker is not able to turn. In General, for welding it will be possible to build 59 different variants of the cars – this is the result that is achieved is still a Sprinter factory in Germany. Nowocześniejszy and more energy-efficient painting process and the workshop itself is among the largest in Europe.
it All began may 18, 2014 when representatives of Volkswagen announced that its largest European investment chose Białężyce under Wrześnią.
- for many years we use the principle that we first choose a country and then we are looking for an attractive place. When he fell on Poland, said the 20 cities. At the last stage it is expected only in Stargard szczeciński and September, he said at a press conference Jens Ocksen, Chairman of the Board of Volkswagen poznań.

– Good information for us and for the labour market is that many people are returning from abroad; in our factory, find a job, people who previously worked in the Netherlands or Germany. We plan to hire on the production lines a greater number of ladies. At the moment, several of them, ultimately, should be about 200 – She said, father musielak of the Board of Volkswagen Poznan.
Where there will be a basic automotive investment?
over the last few months, the so-called launch, was tested technological processes, machines are installed and tested logistics. Only welding robots themselves-it’s about 500 – everything needed to accurately set and check, and it takes a long time.
– to begin production, we had to simulate the process serial number we conducted a performance test and check whether our products and systems work smoothly. In the workshop all communications are already filled for several weeks working in a fully automated mode – said to us during the visit, the plant Manager Ralph Nitzschke.
Today, October 24, factory officially starts to operate.
- Currently we have staff in one shift. At the end of 2016 and 2017, we will conduct the recruitment to the end of the future to achieve the employment level of more than 3 thousand people and provide work in three shifts – says Jolanta father mamelak, Board member for personnel and organization of VW poznań.
