Highly efficient production methods

The Swedish Company, Getrag All Wheel Drive AB is extremely successful with respect to producing systems for four-wheel drive cars and wheel suspensions for passenger car manufacturers like Ford, Volvo and Land Rover. A close and long-standing partnership with Prevas is a key component of Getrag's competitive ability, which is based on effective production methods and stringent inventory control. Together, the two companies have developed the production and inventory system that Getrag uses.

Just like many other sectors, global competition in the manufacturing industry is fierce, with constant demands on supplier quality, flexibility and productivity. Getrag uses a module based system to control the entire flow of materials. This includes everything from the receipt of raw materials to inventory, processing, assembly and packing. Getrag uses Prevas' LIPS-system (Logistics in Production System). It is a system that streamlines all inventory processes and makes Getrag very efficient.
