June 22, 2016 - Borgward Group AG has formed a long-term strategic partnership with the Augsburg-based company, KUKA Roboter AG, a supplier of robotic systems. Among other things, the partnership covers the joint development of production lines, the standardization of processes, and the development of versatile systems and tools.
The cooperation with KUKA will, ideally, enable Borgward to expand its global production system and create a flexible manufacturing process that can quickly respond to changing market developments. Borgward Group AG has already introduced its Borgward Sustainable Platform (BSP) at its first plant, which is located near Beijing. This platform strategy enables the plant to simultaneously produce a variety of models with different wheelbases and drive technologies on a single assembly line. The platform will also be used in all future Borgward plants.
