CNH Industrial N.V. (NYSE: CNHI /MI: CNHI)
announces that its joint-venture TürkTraktör manufacturing facility
in Erenler, Turkey has become the latest plant to be certified
Silver Level in the World Class Manufacturing (WCM) program.
Opened in 2014, the Erenler site, part of
TürkTraktör, CNH Industrial’s joint-venture with Koç Holding A.Ş. –
Turkey’s largest industrial conglomerate – covers an area of over
400,000 square meters and employs a workforce of some 700 people.
Case IH, STEYR and New Holland Agriculture branded mid-range and
specialty tractors are manufactured at the plant, from where they
are exported to more than 130 countries around the world.
The plant is equipped with state-of-the-art
technology throughout and is notably home to Turkey’s first robotic
paint shop in the industry. Eco-friendly production is key at the
Erenler site, where low energy and water consumption is achieved
through the maximization of solar energy and the use of
highly-efficient automation applications.
WCM is one of the global manufacturing
industry’s highest standards for the integrated management of
manufacturing plants and processes. It is a pillar-structured
system based on continuous improvement, designed to eliminate waste
and loss from the production process by identifying objectives such
as zero injuries, zero defects, zero breakdowns and zero waste. To
certify improvements, a system of periodic third-party audits
evaluates all of the WCM pillars, forming an overall score for each
plant that is the basis for three achievement levels: Bronze,
Silver and Gold. The Erenler plant recorded significant gains in
the pillar areas of Logistics and Level of Detail.
