“we really wanted to start production at Masal sooner, but unfortunately there
were a few unforeseeable challenges that needed to be overcome first”, says
Christian herrmann in an interview. the machinery for the plant-in-plant was
at the customer’s site as early as December 2012. everything was ready. But the
customer’s production location is not in the same state as any of the hanSa-FleX
branches, and Brazil is a federation of states. “each state has its own legislation,
so we had to negotiate a number of legal and fiscal hurdles”, continues Mr herrmann.
once we had satisfied the local authorities, we were finally able to get
started. today, two employees produce all of the hose lines that Masal needs for
its production programme. these are made on site and delivered straight to the
customer’s production line as ready-to-install kits, complete with all threaded
connections. the facility is also responsible for assembling the threaded connections
needed for production by Masal subsidiary Jacui in Cachoeira do Sul,
which produces mainly agricultural machinery. “we
are extremely satisfied with the services provided by
hanSa-FleX in the plant-in-plant. the employees
know how to respond to our production and orders
situation flexibly and at very short notice”, thiago
vitola praises the cooperation, for which there are
already expansion plans for the future. For example,
negotiations are currently in progress regarding the
supply of bent pipes.

“the customer gains undeniable advantages from the plant-in-plant. he no longer
has to set warehouse space aside for hose lines, threaded connectors and other parts.
we take responsibility for that. we also assist Masal with our expertise in the development
of new machines and advise them in the design of the hydraulic systems”, Christian
herrmann explains the details of the cooperation. the items needed are ordered
by the plant-in-plant from the central warehouse in Blumenau in the same way as
all the other branches in Brazil. all hanSa-FleX locations in the largest country in
South america are integrated in SaP, so execution of these processes is standardised.
the fact that our colleagues have been able to complete a project like this in Brazil
shows how well hanSa-FleX is organised on site. Consequently, our Brazilian
subsidiary will undoubtedly achieve its ambitious targets in the future, and will
continue to attract attention and respect. •
