Enhanced Base Transceiver System (EBTS)

The customer operates in wireless, broadband and automotive communications technologies products. It transferred its EBTS (Enhanced Base Transceiver System) production from USA to Germany. It also had a mandate to find a new packaging supplier with international operations.

After the Flow Review Analysis of the present situation, significant cost take-out opportunities had been found and the team developed a new type of crate made from plywood. They also improved the inner packaging material as well as the packing process itself. The new box, NEFAB ExPak S, is collapsible with reusable plastic clips.
