In today's rapidly evolving energy landscape, on-time delivery of power transformers has become very crucial. On-Load Tap changers (OLTCs) stand among the most critical components of power transformer that play a pivotal role in ensuring the efficient regulation of voltage levels. The ability to deliver tap-changers to the transformer manufacturer on time with the highest quality standards was a big challenge for manufacturers across the industry. 

Elprom Heavy Industries made it possible to deal with this critical requirement by offering its solutions with a shorter delivery time than ever. With over 70 years of innovations in Europe, and addresses such challenges by offering a wide range of RS model OLTCs, with both oil-type and vacuum-type technology.Recent improvements in our Lean manufacturing process have enabled Elprom to produce standard and custom designed OLTCs typically within 6 to 10 weeks, meeting global demands of our customers.  


Optimization of Manufacturing Processes: 

• Lean Manufacturing Principles: By implementing Lean manufacturing principles, we have streamlined each stage of our OLTC production cycle, enhancing efficiency and reducing lead times. 

 • Advanced Project Management: Leveraging advanced project management techniques, including Just-In-Time (JIT) practices, has minimized downtime and boosted overall productivity in our OLTC manufacturing process.  

Improvement of the Supply Chain: 

• Strengthened Supplier Relationships: We redefined the delivery schedules with our suppliers, ensuring reliable and timely delivery of critical raw materials for manufacturing process. 
• Optimized Logistics: Refinement in our logistics, and by using state-of-the-art planning tools. We significantly reduced raw material delivery times to ensuring swift and efficient production.

Investment in Technology and Equipment:  

• Modernization and Automation: with the upgradation of our production units and incorporating advanced automation technologies, we achieved acceleration in manufacturing of OLTCs and improved product quality. 
• Enhanced IT Solutions: The adoption of cutting-edge IT solutions for managing production data has provided us with superior control over our processes and a rapid response to any changes or challenges. 

Employee Skill Development: 

• Continuous Training: We conduct employee-development training for our team members to update their knowledge and understanding of the new state-of-the-art machines, which has not only enhanced their work efficiency but also boosted the overall efficiency of our OLTC production.
