PROJECT DESCRIPTION

In December 2019, with the W206 marking the latest
standard for Mercedes-Benz South Africa, SAR entered into a
collaborative effort with a partner company to finalize a
significant portion of the main assembly lines for the plant.
Among the various lines completed, the engine line. SAR was
tasked with installing 51 carriers within an EMC system,
seamlessly integrating them with both conveyor systems and
an AGV (Automated Guided Vehicle) system.
The primary objective of this line was to establish a
streamlined assembly process for the new engine,
complemented by an automated marriage system for
integrating it with the vehicle’s aggregates. This undertaking
represents a testament to SAR’s capability to navigate
manufacturing environments and deliver defined solutions to
meet the evolving standards of the client.
