Case Study: Harley-Davidson improves engine assembly quality and traceability with Dematic PTC

Harley-Davidson - Customer Case Study

Harley-Davidson sought to enhance the quality and dependability of its manufacturing and assembly process for its renowned motorcycles. The company selected vendor Dematic to improve its engine assembly operation based on Dematic's strong reputation and technical expertise.

Dematic implemented its Production Tracking and Control (PTC) system, which used RFID tags to track each engine and direct assemblers through the process. This solution provided step-by-step operator feedback and collected real-time assembly data. As a result, Harley-Davidson achieved significant improvements in product quality, process repeatability, and manufacturing efficiency, allowing for further refinements to its motorcycle designs.
