The glob­al demand for trans­form­ers and ener­gy tech­nol­o­gy is enor­mous. Maschi­nen­fab­rik Rein­hausen has there­fore launched an invest­ment offen­sive to sig­nif­i­cant­ly expand its glob­al pro­duc­tion capac­i­ties.

Elec­tric­i­ty grids are being mas­sive­ly expand­ed around the world, and the demand for MR’s prod­ucts and solu­tions is grow­ing accord­ing­ly. In order to best meet the needs of its cus­tomers, the com­pa­ny has tak­en a num­ber of mea­sures to speed up pro­duc­tion and deliv­ery. Man­ag­ing Direc­tor Hol­ger Michal­ka explains: “Ac-cel­er­at­ing our deliv­ery per­for­mance and reduc­ing deliv­ery times is a key part of our invest­ment strat­e­gy. To this end, we are glob­al­iz­ing our val­ue chains and syn­chro­niz­ing our capac­i­ties with new mar­ket require­ments around the world. In the cur­rent super cycle in the ener­gy sec­tor, our on-load tap-chang­ers play a deci­sive role and must be avail­able to our cus­tomers in the known qual­i­ty and with­in a rea­son­able time.

With this in mind, we are also imple­ment­ing par­tial local­iza­tion of indi­vid­ual val­ue cre­ation stages through­out the sup­ply chain. This approach, which is gen­er­al­ly referred to as “glo­cal­iza­tion”, is essen­tial giv­en that over 92 % of MR’s sales vol­ume is gen­er­at­ed out­side Ger­many. Our invest­ment pro­gram amounts to a sig­nif­i­cant three-dig­it mil­lion Euro sum and will take effect over the next four years. In the process, we are seiz­ing all oppor­tu­ni­ties for trans­for­ma­tion, rethink­ing mate­r­i­al flows and imple­ment­ing ener­gy-effi­cient as well as AI-sup­port­ed tech­nolo­gies. The high­light will be our pro­duc­tion site in the Haslbach com­mer­cial area in Regens­burg, where we are almost dou­bling the space. When com­plet­ed, we will employ around 1,800 peo­ple there.” 

This is how we increase our capacities worldwide!

Regensburg (Germany)

“With the largest sin­gle invest­ment in the company’s his­to­ry, we are com­plete­ly reor­ga­niz­ing our pro­duc­tion around the globe over the next four years and dou­bling our capac­i­ties!” 

Hol­ger Michal­ka, Man­ag­ing Direc­tor MR

“Our major invest­ment pro­gram is pro­gress­ing. We will open the first expan­sion phase of our fac­to­ry in Regens­burg in the fourth quar­ter of 2025 and fur­ther expan­sion stages have already begun. We have made major short-term and long-term invest­ments and will con­tin­ue to do so in order to remain a reli­able part­ner for on-load tap-chang­ers, cor­re­spond­ing motor-dri­ve units and intel­li­gent solu­tions.”

“Fol­low­ing invest­ments in recent years, we are plan­ning a fur­ther expan­sion of our US pro­duc­tion site, focus­ing on on-load tap-chang­ers. This will allow us to real­ize short­er deliv­ery times, pro­vide even bet­ter ser­vice and help our cus­tomers keep their projects on sched­ule.”

Suzhou (China)

“With MR’s glob­al growth, we have launched a capac­i­ty expan­sion plan for our Suzhou plant. Over the next few years, we will expand pro­duc­tion, add new prod­uct lines and take on a greater role in the sup­ply chain. This will allow us to speed up deliv­er­ies to our Chi­nese cus­tomers and take the pres­sure off pro­duc­tion in Ger­many.“
