The destination of the shipments was the BMW plant in Landshut. The components were assembled on-site by the Felbermayr subsidiary Wimmer Maschinentransporte – starting with the unloading. After the components were unloaded, the individual components (each weighing up to 100 tons) were moved to the production hall using a self-propelled industrial roller and were assembled there to become a 220-ton machine. Due to its weight, the machine was then transported further to its base using an eight-axle self-propelled transporter. Once there, the machine was placed on its base using lifting gear. This method was used to set up two machines within just two weeks.
