Transportation of cabs

The future-proof solution for the transportation of cabs at the Scania truck assembly plant was created with the latest technology adapted to Scania’s requirements and wishes.

Challenges:

Scania wanted a modernized solution that would allow increased capacity, accessibility, and safety. This meant:

  • Meeting capacity requirements
  • Increasing accessibility
  • Safeguarding worker health

Solutions Implemented:

Scania selected several new chain tracks and roller conveyors, including:

  • Three-stringed chain tracks KB319D
  • Two-stringed chain tracks KB219D
  • Two-stringed roller conveyors RB90 2
  • Various special-purpose machines

Benefits:

Since the implementation, Scania has increased both productivity and safety. Additional benefits include: 

  • Special ergonomic conditions and safety conditions are taken into account more effectively
  • A new generation of area scanners has been installed to maximize personal safety on the assembly line
  • The solution increased overall capacity by approximately 20%

Körber has delivered a future-proof solution created with the latest technology that is adapted to Scania’s requirements and wishes. The installation has been carried out within a very tight timeframe of only three weeks, where dialogue and cooperation are key factors for ensuring that everything goes efficiently and according to the plan. The collaboration with Körber has been optimal. Challenges came up along the way, but it has been solved to Scania’s full satisfaction.
