I’ve really only got a few things to mention. Firstly, I’d like to welcome any new members to the group. One little reminder, when any observer wants a pre-test drive or check test for their associate, please contact me on 01652 655 601 or email [email protected]. Also, if you have anything that you want to ask or discus anything, please feel free to contact me. A little higher up the page in the mag, Jan our editor has highlighted the composition of the group membership. To add to that, there are currently about 8 associates “on hold” mainly for personal reasons, so I would ask that if anyone in this situation wishes to start or restart their training, please contact John Wigmore, who’s details are found elsewhere in this magazine. In the new year, we’re hoping to get to more venues in the Grimsby and Clee area, so we might be looking for staff in the area to help man it. Another thing I’m planning is, an event at a venue to be agreed upon yet, with a great big HGV giving us all an insight into the issues faced by the drivers on a daily basis and in particular to highlight the immense blind spots. We’ve also got some great speakers lined up as well, really worth a visit. Dates and times will be available via this mag, the website, or direct emails. So once again, I’d just like to thank you all for your continued help and support and I’d also like to be one of the first to wish you and yours a very happy Christmas and hope to see you all in the new year. Best wishes from the team…... Terry Heath Chairman.

  • Dacia Pay Agreement Signed
    PRESS RELEASE April 11, 2008 DACIA PAY AGREEMENT SIGNED • Dacia management and Dacia’s trade union, Syndicat Autoturisme Dacia (SAD), signed an agreement on an annual pay increase on April 11, 2008. Work resumed at the plant on the same day at noon (GMT +1). • Under the agreement, qualified production workers will receive a gross monthly salary increase of 300 lei (83 euros) from January 1, 2008, followed by a gross monthly increase of 60 lei (16 euros) from September 1, 2008. Technicians, supervisory staff and managers get a 15% raise. All employees will receive a profit- sharing bonus based on 2007 results. The bonus will be equal to one month’s gross salary, with a gross minimum of 900 lei (249 euros). • The agreement concludes the negotiations started on January 28, according to a protocol established under Romanian law. Dacia management and the trade union have thus reached a reasonable compromise. The pay increases are significantly higher than the national average and the average in the Romanian manufacturing sector. In 2008, the average gross yearly salary of Dacia production workers will be 43% higher than the Romanian average (forecast). The salaries will also keep the Pitesti plant competitive on producing Dacia vehicles and parts for the worldwide Logan program. Today’s agreement between Dacia and SAD concludes a negotiation period that started on January 28, 2008, during which the management and the trade union met three times a week.

  • Dacia, Always in the Hearts of Romanians
    Dacia, Always in the Hearts of Romanians The Dacia brand and the Mioveni plant celebrate in 2018 half a century of existence. Automobile Dacia is today the most important company in Romania. Employees’ talent and professionalism turned Dacia into a symbol of quality and performance. Dacia conquered customers from 44 countries through attractive, quality models, at the best price. "I am very honored to mention a unique moment. In 2018 we shall celebrate 50 years of Dacia heritage: of a plant, of a brand, and of a Romanian symbol. We shall live again important moments of this half a century, we shall give the floor to the employees who have lived and permanently live the continuous transformation of Dacia. We shall organize during the year, across the country, communication events. Dacia is a dynamic brand with an essential role in the success of the strategic plan of Groupe Renault, “Drive the Future”. Dacia is a success symbol on a very competitive market, which is the automotive industry and it imposed itself as a key player on all demanding European markets, by designing and manufacturing attractive, quality cars, at the best price. Romania has the legitimacy to continue this success and Dacia will always be in the hearts of Romanians." - Antoine Doucerain, Managing Director Automobile Dacia and Groupe Renault Romania. 50 years ago… In the proximity of the Colibași village (currently a neighborhood of Mioveni) the last works for establishing the Pitești Vehicle Plant (RO – “Uzina de Autoturisme Pitești” – UAP) were taking place. The industrial site, built as a result of the cooperation with Renault, was soon to start the manufacturing of its first cars, marking thus the birth of one of the most beloved Romanian brands – Dacia.

    PRODUCT INFORMATION CENTER APRIL 2014 Agenda • In the spotlight • New references • New applications Air, oil, fuel, diesel filters Cabin fiters • Change of status Filters available whilst stock last Filters superseded Filters abandoned www.fram-europe.com In the Spotlight PIC April 2014 Dear customers, This new edition of our quarterly news bulletin, close to the arrival of spring, is the ideal opportunity to speak to you about reduction of emissions. We are proud to let you know about the launch of the new 2.0 Blue HDI engine from PSA, which conforms with Euro VI emissions standards, and on which Sogefi filters are fitted. This DW10F engine, which offers from 135HP up to 180HP and will equip many vehicles like Citroën C4 Picasso, DS3, DS4, Peugeot 308 II and RCZ, is anticipated to meet the Euro 6 standard. This new rule imposes a strict reduction on the nitrogen oxide emissions (NOx); achieved by the Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) pollutant-reducing system that is well-known on trucks, but up to now has been very rare on light vehicles. The Sogefi Group has been named as an exclusive tier one supplier of key components for the new PSA Euro 6 compliant diesel engines. According to the vehicle type, Sogefi will be the original filtration equipment provider for air, oil and especially fuel, using a brand new diesel filtration module. This module delivers an exceptionally high filtration, capturing almost all particles bigger than 4µm. This meets the demanding levels of protection needed by the latest generations of Diesel Fuel and Common Rail injectors, ensuring compliance with imminent Euro 6 regulations.

    PERSBERICHT 2019­12­09 500.000STE NIEUWE DUSTER GEPRODUCEERD IN FABRIEK VAN MIOVENI IN ROEMENIË Eind november vierde de Uzina Vehicule Dacia in Mioveni de productie van de 500.000ste Duster (een 4x4 Prestige, 1.3 TCE 150 pk, in de kleur Fusierood). Het gaat om een exemplaar van de 2de generatie van het voor Roemenië en Groupe Renault iconische model, dat twee jaar geleden gelanceerd werd op het Autosalon van Frankfurt. De toekomstige eigenaar van deze Duster is een klant uit Frankrijk. Elke dag produceert de fabriek 1.400 voertuigen, waarvan 1.050 Dusters. De eerste generatie van Duster ging in productie in 2010. Sindsdien werden er ruim 1,7 miljoen van geproduceerd in het Roemeense Mioveni. De belangrijkste exportmarkten zijn Frankrijk, Italië en Spanje. Het Dacia­gamma wordt op de markt gebracht in 44 landen. "De basis van het succes zijn competente, degelijke teams met veel zin voor verantwoordelijkheid. Zo werken we bij Dacia. Duster is een iconisch model uit het Dacia­ gamma dat in Mioveni geproduceerd wordt en waaraan alle teams van Groupe Renault România meewerken. Ik wil hen graag allemaal bedanken. Om onze concurrentiekracht te behouden, moeten we met eensgezindheid, verantwoordelijkheidszin en grote nauwkeurigheid blijven werken. We produceren aantrekkelijke, kwaliteitsvolle en competitieve wagens die in de smaak vallen bij onze klanten. We creëren vandaag onze toekomst binnen een van de belangrijkste fabrieken van de Alliantie Renault Nissan Mitsubishi,” aldus Miguel Oliver – Boquera, CEO van de Uzina Vehicule Dacia. Nieuwe Duster is de best verkochte SUV in Roemenië en, na Logan, het tweede best verkochte model op de lokale markt.

  • From Fordism to Lean Management: Main Shifts in Automotive Industry Evolution Within the Last Century
    FROM FORDISM TO LEAN MANAGEMENT: MAIN SHIFTS IN AUTOMOTIVE INDUSTRY EVOLUTION WITHIN THE LAST CENTURY Attila Turi Politehnica University from Timisoara, Romania [email protected] Marian Mocan Politehnica University from Timisoara, Romania [email protected] Larisa Ivascu Politehnica University from Timisoara, Romania [email protected] Gilles Goncalves Univ Lille Nord de France [email protected] Sorin Maistor Politehnica University from Timisoara, Romania [email protected] Abstract: The paper outlines the main shifts in production, organizational culture and supply chain management in automotive industry during the last century and underlines key factors in car industry development. Car manufacturers have undergone important changes in production technology and philosophy which have brought about dynamic changes in operations management and organizational culture and have extended to a very complex and challenging supply chain integration. Carmakers face harsh competition and thus strive to improve their overall performance in their attempt to overcome the current slow market revival and remain globally competitive. The paper focuses on the Dacia-Renault case study and uses the case research method to describe how the different shifts in automotive industry have impacted the Romanian brand. Relevant data and indicators for the impact of Dacia’s evolution on economic, social and environmental level are analyzed and compared and provide an overview on car market dynamics and future perspectives. Results show that drivers of carmaker competitiveness are mainly related to market specifics, sensible and subjective customer criteria as well as an important brand awareness. The research provides an overview of the features prompted by the different shifts in production systems during the last century and provides recommendations to improve competitiveness and assure sustainable development of car manufacturing companies, automotive industry and their supply chain.

  • The Industrial Platform Dacia from Mioveni Is Now Verdant Due to Its Employees
    The Industrial Platform Dacia from Mioveni is Now Verdant Due to Its Employees During november, the employees of Dacia plants from Mioveni got together in a broader project of volunteering and planted 1000 seedlings (spruces, birches, red oaks, maples, poplars). The shrubs were chosen depending on the type of soil and in harmony with the greenery already existing. ’’We want to enhance the air’s quality on the platform and in Mioveni city. We want to take care of nature, of the environment, of ourselves and our children. In the last ten years, at the level of Groupe Renault Romania over 270 000 trees have been planted on the sites where we are holding our activities and where we have our communities. My advice is to be as sensitive to nature as you can and to spend as much time outdoors as you can, leaving something to grow behind you.’’, declared Christophe Dridi, president CEO of Dacia and General Manager of Groupe Renault Romania, who took part in the volunteering event held on the platform. Dacia Vehicles Plant Employees and clients are the center of Dacia Vehicles Plant’s transformations. It’s a modern plant, more adapted to changes with the majority of the processes of fabrication being automated. Along over five decades, the plant have been produced over 6,8 millions vehicles. Here were fabricated generations from 8 different models: Dacia 1100, Dacia 1300, Dacia Nova, Dacia SupeRNova, Dacia Solenza, Dacia Logan (with the versions of berlin, station wagon, furgon and pick-up), Dacia Sandero and Dacia Duster. Inside the same fabric are being produced parts and collections of parts necessary to the assemblance of the range Global Access in other plants of Groupe Renault from around the world.

  • Car Assembly Plant
    Car Assembly Plant Dacia Vehicle Plant produces vehicles in the following ranges: Logan, Logan MCV, Sandero (including the Stepway version) and Duster (4x2, 4x4), while also manufacturing spare parts for current and discontinued models. The Vehicle Plant operates currently at a rate of 1,300 vehicles per day, which means 60 vehicles per hour (one car comes out of the assembly line every minute). In 2016 the plant produced 320,239 cars and 42,371 painted car bodies, which were dispatched to Renault plant in Algeria. During its 49-year lifetime the plant produced 8 different models: Dacia 1100, Dacia 1300, Dacia Nova, Dacia SuperNova, Dacia Solenza, Dacia Logan (with the sedan, station wagon, waggon and pick-up versions), Dacia Sandero and Dacia Duster, totalling almost 6 million vehicles. The plant is organised in four production departments: Pressing, Bodies, Painting and Assembly. Pressing is the beginning of a vehicle's production process and consists of transforming the raw material, delivered as steel sheet, into car body parts. The parts thus obtained are delivered to the Bodies department, where they are assembled by spot welding to create the car body, together with mobile elements. Painting, the third stage of the manufacturing process, aims to protect the car body against corrosion and to achieve the finishing according to quality requirements. 8 kg of paint (water-based paint) are necessary for painting a car body. In the last stage of the manufacturing process, in the Assembly department, the mechanical elements are assembled and installed (the engine set, the rear bridge), as well as the driving unit, mirrors, inner and outer elements of the vehicle (carpets, seats, lights etc.).
