Our facility in Guragoan houses three fully integrated plants. While
the three plants have a total installed capacity of 350,000 cars
per year, several productivity improvements or shop floor Kaizens
over the years have enabled the company to manufacture nearly 650,000
cars per year at the Gurgaon facilities.
The entire facility is equipped with more than 150 robots, out of
which 71 have been developed in-house. More than 50 per cent of
our shop floor employees have been trained in Japan. |

Our Manesar facility has been made to suit Suzuki Motor Corporation
(SMC) and Maruti Suzuki India Limited's (MSIL) global ambitions.
Rated high among Suzuki's best plants worldwide the plant was inaugurated
in February 2007.
The plant has several in-built systems and mechanisms to ensure
that cars being manufactured here are of good quality. There is
a high degree of automation and robotic control in the press shop,
weld shop and paint shop to carry on manufacturing work with acute
precision and high quality. In particular, areas where manual operations
are hazardous or unsafe have been equipped with robots.
The plant is designed to be flexible: diverse car models can be
made here conveniently owing to automatic tool changers, centralized
weld control system and numerical control machines that ensure high
quality.
The open lay-out and ergonomic design make work convenient and improve
productivity.
The plant at Manesar is the company's fourth car assembly plant
and has started with an initial capacity of 100,000 cars per year.
This will be scaled up to 300,000 cars per year. A total investment
of Rs 2,500 crore will be made in this car plant by 2010 |
