CEAT Limited, one of India’s leading tire manufacturers, has reported significant increases in productivity and reduction of supply chain errors after deploying visibility solutions provided by Zebra Technologies.
CEAT has used Zebra’s solutions to simplify its processes and build automated workflows at its Halol plant in the state of Gujarat. CEAT has deployed Zebra’s MC3200 Mobile Computer, DS457 Fixed Scanner, and ZT230 Industry Printer in its manufacturing facility.
CEAT saw a 60% reduction in contract manpower used for manual data entries, and a twofold increase in efficiency of frontline managers. The report preparation time is now reduced from two hours per day to just five minutes. In CEAT’s warehouse, Zebra’s solution helped eliminate manual data entries from 28 consecutive hours to just 28 minutes a day.
By using Zebra’s solutions, CEAT improved dispatch accuracy, leading to a 20-times reduction in fault finding and customer complaints. The success of the Zebra deployment at CEAT’s Halol plant is paving the way for increased use of Zebra technology at its other plants, including the newest Nagpur plant.
“Zebra has helped our Halol plant transform into an intelligent facility, aligning it to CEAT’s long-term vision,” Gopal Rathore, IT manager, CEAT Ltd., said.
