Kumar Machine Tool works at flexible manufacturing system, which gives product developers and manufacturing the capability to make quick product adjustments when market demands change.

KMT's production volumes are not as large as some other company's, but we have used that fact to our advantage, we designed our plants to be flexible and capable of producing different models on one line.

The basic KMT production method is mixed manufacturing. All of our plants are flexible manufacturing and produce more than one model. This approach not only makes it possible for us handle a wide range of product lines and models, meeting changing market needs with efficiency, high quality and fast delivery.

KMT has increased efficiency by developing a "Kit Supply System" since 2004. This reduces the number of things the worker has to be concerned about, making it possible for them to quickly and accurately select the correct components, which at the end results in reducing human errors and improving efficiency as well as quality.

KMT is also implementing an integrated scheduled production system in cooperation with its supplier, meaning that every step in the production system derives from advanced planning. KMT will fix the production schedule and notify the supplier several days before the production. Suppliers will deliver the parts of the right model, right color, and right trim in right order to the plants according to the production schedule. Components required for each step is supplied as they are needed, eliminating losses due to warehousing and redundant transportation.

KMT expects these improvements will reduce energy requirements for logistics between regions by 27 percent annually.

KMT always looks into innovations for both better quality and environmental awareness in every aspect.

KMT is zooming towards its goal of making appealing products for its customers.
