Head of Assembly Hall 1, Bramsche Plant

Timo Walhorn

Timo Walhorn began his career in 1996 with an apprenticeship as an industrial mechanic at Preussag Anthrazit GmbH in Ibbenbüren. Due to the uncertain future of the mine, he began looking for new opportunities at an early stage. A tip from his cousin told him about vacancies at AMAZONEN-WERKE in Hasbergen-Gaste. After a brief interview with the then operations manager, Mr Wiendieck – still in his miner's overalls – he was immediately offered the job and started work in April 2000.
Mr Walhorn started in the ED assembly and gained experience in the DMC assembly in the off-peak season. After completing his community service in lieu of military service, he worked in the UG assembly and later in the UX assembly and played a key role in setting up the UX assembly line.
In 2007, as a foreman, he took responsibility for relocating the UX assembly to Leeden. From 2016 onwards, he drove forward the series launch of the UX 01 before moving to Bramsche in 2018. There, Mr Walhorn now manages Assembly Hall 1 with around 130 employees and is responsible for the UX, UF, ZG and DMC base machines as well as the pre-assembly modules. Mr Walhorn is still very grateful to his colleagues and his cousin Ingo for enabling him to join the company.
His dedication and experience are a great asset to our company – we look forward to continuing our journey into the future together.
