BMW order won

Demag Cranes has won a major order from BMW. The company has received an order from the vehicle manufacturer to supply a total of 28 cranes to serve press lines at its locations in Leipzig, Regensburg and Dingolfing. The order includes 23 process cranes with lifting capacities of up to 55 tonnes, two semi-portal cranes, one full portal crane and two standard cranes. The order highlights the proven and longstanding relationship between the two companies. BMW has been using Demag Cranes' technology in its production activities for decades.

This order is the second significant contract, placed with Demag Cranes, by BMW within the last four years. In 2008, nine process crane systems were delivered to BMW plants at Leipzig, Regensburg and Dingolfing.
