Knowledge transfer, the key to success

 

 

Teknia remains committed to innovation and knowledge transfer as key levers for action. With a view towards consolidating growth in the North American region and positioning the San Luis Potosí plant (Mexico) as a leader in the manufacture of plastic tanks in Mexico, the company has launched a knowledge transfer project among its subsidiaries.

A technological leap

From the design and development centre in Teknia Rzeszów, Poland (which supports the rest of the plastic plants in R&D), the process technologies necessary for the manufacture of these components at the San Luis Potosí plant have been developed, from the design of the moulds to the monitoring of the manufacture of the automated welding stations.

These projects represent a technological leap for the plant, which has required the installation of highly automated welding stations, six-axis robots and laser marking, among others.

Innovation as a transversal lever

Teknia Rzeszów’s design and development centre aims to lead the technological development of new products and processes for the company’s plants worldwide. For this purpose, it is structured in three interconnected areas or departments: design, engineering and toolshop.

As a result, the center leads and directs innovation efforts, which are then implemented and transferred to the plants, depending on each technology.
