Development & Quality


Depth of production

afr-img-fertigunglogistik-fertigungstiefe

Tools and equipment making
The core of our flexibility. Development and design of the finished product as well as tool and equipment making are concentrated in a single department and can consequently be optimally aligned with one another. This allows us to create new developments, special designs and customised products rapidly and in a highly cost-effective way.

Plastic injection molding
A key to adaptability is the in-house plastic injection molding shop with more than 1,300 injection tools. Our machinery is state-of-the-art – also in terms of energy efficiency. OEM and standard products can thus be produced efficiently, demand-oriented and in a wide range of lot sizes.

Production
A high degree of vertical integration enables maximum flexibility and allows us to optimally meet customer requirements. Variable manufacturing structures allow to efficiently produce a large range of lot sizes. Manual, semi-automatic or fully automatic – in the production of AFRISO quality products we use every opportunity to obtain the best results. All production processes are optimised on an ongoing basis and are subject to all pertinent quality standards.

Digitised processes

Consistent digitalisation ensures lean, efficient workflows and speeds up daily processes. The SAP ERP system that is used across the entire corporation serves as a basis for this. In conjunction with specifically developed warehouse software, a high-performance and future-oriented system and process environment was created that meets the most modern requirements. Warehouse terminals guide our employees through the logistics centre, and „pick-by-light“ supports order picking.
