Adjustment of the material supply mainly depends on the pace of the assembly cycle (or "takt" in technical terminology). Internal processes for providing materials in the plant, as well as taking deliveries from suppliers invariably follow the same basic principles, i.e. the individual vehicle order and its defined time and sequence data within the manufacturing workflow. "This is the only way to manage production of the entire diversity of models for all the two-door sports cars derivatives on one assembly line," said Volker Guckenhan, Head of Plant Logistics at Zuffenhausen.
