JÁSZFÉNYSZARU
Overhead camshafts and electro-mechanical power steering (developed in our competence centre in Budapest) will be produced for the international auto industry in our factory unit, which is to be opened soon in Jászfényszaru.
Our company opened a new unit in 2016, in addition to its existing sites in Budapest and Győr. From 2018, this new unit will support the work of the Hungarian development engineers in the E/E (electrical and electronic) competence centre of thyssenkrupp in Budapest. The green field investment was launched in April 2016, with two businesses units.
Steering
Our Steering business unit will be launched in the second half of this year. Our facilities will be manufacturing Electro-mechanical power steering (C-EPS type) for the international auto industry, designed by our engineers in the competence centre in Budapest. These "smart" steering systems use electromotive assistance instead of traditional hydraulic systems that constantly require energy, meaning that they only use energy when they actually turn the steering wheel, saving up to 0.3 litres of fuel per 100 kilometres, depending on the type of car. In addition, electromotive assistance is more reliable than traditional hydraulic systems, and requires less maintenance work.
Camshafts
The main profile of our Camshaft business unit involves the manufacture of overhead camshafts. These components are highly innovative and cost-efficient, since less raw material is used in their production, and they have lower power consumption and lower energy demands for their production, due to their reduced weight. The test facility began operations in March 2017, and currently has almost 40 employees working in the newly constructed manufacturing halls, with jobs related to production, maintenance, logistics, quality assurance, IT, and management. We plan to have a significant number of employees employed in shift work in the facility by next year.

Lars, Plant Maintenance Manager
“I have been working at thyssenkrupp for more than 10 years. Before coming to Hungary, I worked in Shanghai where I was responsible for a big maintenance area and its infrastructure, while experiencing a totally different culture. It was an amazing experience. Now, I am here in Jászfényszaru to build up a new plant, a new maintenance area with a new team of Hungarian colleagues. It has just started and I am looking forward to learn about the culture here. I had so many opportunities at thyssenkrupp, and I guess it is not over.”

Róbert, Machinery Operator
“A newly launched factory always provides numerous opportunities. There are a lot of opportunities to advance, mostly professionally, as the machinery fleet is quite sophisticated. Although we are still at the very beginning of the process, my experiences have been excellent: the environment is pleasant, my colleagues are cooperative, the management is flexible and the atmosphere is friendly.”

György, Production Manager
“The work is very intense, but I think this is because we have created a new site from scratch. We are establishing the rules and creating the entire system all by ourselves. This is not an opportunity that comes around often in life: to be involved in a process from the very beginning. There are unexpected things that one cannot prepare for, but these challenges are exactly what make this so exciting.”

Dániel, Mechanic Maintenance Technician
“I have been working here since November 2016. The hall was still empty back then, so we actually started in Germany, where we studied the operation of the machines for 2 weeks. It was great to be here from the very beginning, because we’ve learned and seen a lot during this time. I am a mechanic maintenance technician, but have recently been asked to work as a so-called ‘fluid technician’, someone who is responsible for refilling machinery oil and coolants and measuring emulsion-pH. This means that I now have the opportunity to grow in an even greater number of areas.”

Erzsébet, Machine Operator
“I like challenges, and this is a new company, a new beginning, a new life. My boss and my colleagues are all very nice, and the atmosphere is very friendly. I have the opportunity to learn a great deal while operating these highly modern machines.”

Béla, Supplier Quality Assurance Engineer
“thyssenkrupp decided to forge ahead with a major investment in Jászfényszaru, and I think any company that would take on an investment project of this size is extremely successful. This is the foundation of a stable workplace, and stability is very important to me. The launch of a new factory is always filled with challenges and opportunities, through which I can develop and gain new experiences.”

Gábor, Maintenance Manager
“I have always worked at auto industry companies, and I think this is the future. This may be the most professional sector to work in in Hungary today. There are numerous challenges, as we must not only construct the factory, but the entire system and each department as well. This involves a lot of work, but I'm really enjoying myself, as I see that it is worth the effort. In addition, the team I have here is outstanding, both as individuals and as professionals.”
More about us
In excess of HUF 30-billion, the investment is nearing the finish line; we are continuously looking for experts to fill up the close to 500 new job positions we offer.
Our factory will produce innovative, top-quality auto industry products, using some of the most up-to-date technological equipment by European standards.
