Malmesbury, Dec 2021.

A team led by Greenacres Engineering successfully refurbished and installed a used Hennecke WKH 32 oval conveyor, dual-hardness robot and foam dispensing system that was imported from the customer site in Indonesia. The plant was completely disassembled and transported to SA by sea. The 40' shipping containers arrived in SA in February 2021 and the team immediately started unpacking, sorting and cleaning all the assemblies.

Due to excellent documentation provided by the original equipment manufacurer Hennecke Gmbh, the installation, refurbishment and upgrades to the 10 year old plant were effortlessly carried out, despite the various disruptions resulting from COVID restrictions. In July 2021 the first seat cushion samples were produced for the automotive OEM client and approvals rapidly followed.

The integration of the various technical teams, specialists and the co-operation from the client contributed to the completion of the successful project. The original build quality and spare parts service from Hennecke GmbH enabled the installation team to complete the overhaul and refurbishment within the alloted time frame under the leadership of the Greenacres Engineering team.
