Obermeyer Helika advances conveyor bridge and warehouse project for Škoda Auto in Mladá Boleslav

25 February 2025

Obermeyer Helika is overseeing the design and construction of fully automated conveyor bridges and a high-rise warehouse for car body transport and storage at the Škoda Auto production site in Mladá Boleslav. The project presents significant technological and logistical challenges, with the first phase involving the launch of the automated high-rise warehouse (HRL). The planning and construction documentation began in 2023.

The company is responsible for a range of tasks, including conducting comprehensive survey work using digital 3D scanning technology, preparing documentation for planning and construction approvals, and obtaining necessary permits. It is also managing construction scheduling, documentation updates, and author supervision during project execution.

The conveyor bridge network spans approximately 1.2 km across the Mladá Boleslav automotive plant, passing through existing facilities, over rooftops, and across exterior areas. The project also includes a high-rise warehouse with a capacity for 900 car bodies, designed to support a planned new paint shop.

According to Ing. Tomáš Zelenka, senior project engineer at Obermeyer Helika, the project integrates the conveyor bridges into existing site infrastructure while addressing utility relocations and road improvements. He emphasized the system’s automation and efficiency in managing car body transport within production processes.

The project represents a major contract for Obermeyer Helika, reaffirming its expertise in industrial facility design. Collaboration with Škoda Auto and the use of advanced technologies have enabled the project team to meet targets and deadlines effectively. A team of specialists is managing the project’s technical and organizational aspects to ensure seamless execution and coordination with stakeholders.

Project Manager and Deputy Director of the Architecture and Civil Engineering Division, Ing. Jan Korbut, MBA, highlighted the complexity and strategic importance of the project. He noted that collaboration with the automotive sector, known for its technological innovation, has required continuous planning and adaptation to meet client requirements.

The introduction of automated conveyor bridges and a high-rise body storage facility at Škoda Auto Mladá Boleslav is expected to enhance production efficiency and competitiveness at the automotive plant.
