The mission

Increase efficiency, quality and orderliness at GKN Driveline in Köping. Create the conditions for doing a good job in the form of adaptable workplaces. Height-adjustable table, chairs, lifting columns a complete solution.


This is a long-term effort that has been ongoing since 2004. Today, there is increased productivity and fewer complaints, as well as a greater commitment to improvement among staff.


From traditional workshop to tomorrow's industrial workplace

- "We realized that more efficient workplaces were a key to achieving our goals. In collaboration with Gigant , we have since created several solutions in our production flow that have taken us forward bit by bit, says Håkan Eriksson, production technician at GKN in Köping.


Outside the building, there are several good examples of what a modern industrial workplace should look like - in principle, all workplaces can be adapted to the individual operator, thus avoiding occupational injuries while making work easier and faster.


- If you want to see change, you must also create the conditions for it. We have gained better order at each workplace, reduced downtime and increased productivity in this way," says Håkan Eriksson.

Analysis

We start by analyzing the work environment on the ground - what are the priority needs and potential problem areas? We then listen to your own expertise on the business and production to ensure that our delivery makes a real difference.

Solution

Based on the analysis, we develop a complete solution. The proposal can be drawn in Gigant 3D to visualize and quote the offer and for you as a customer to get a sense of how the solution fits in and how different details are designed.

Commissioning

We don't let go of responsibility just because the product has left the warehouse. If required, we also help with on-site installation and ensure that the solution works properly. We have installation teams all over the Nordic region.
