Protect Your Workforce & Keep Production Running Smoothly

Automotive manufacturing thrives on speed and precision, but the physical demands of the job can take a toll on workers. Repetitive motions, awkward postures, and heavy lifting increase the risk of musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs), leading to injuries, downtime, and rising costs. TuMeke’s AI-powered ergonomic assessment platform helps you stay ahead of these risks by automating assessments, identifying hazards in real-time, and enabling proactive solutions. Keep your workforce safe, reduce injuries, and maintain peak efficiency without slowing down production.

‍

Reduce Ergonomic Risks in Auto Manufacturing

From stamping plants to final assembly, automotive workers perform high-risk tasks that can lead to injuries over time. TuMeke helps manufacturers address key risk factors such as:

‍

Repetitive Motions: Tasks like installing seats, wiring, and fastening bolts can strain muscles and joints.

Awkward Postures: Reaching, bending, and working in confined spaces increases stress on the body.

Heavy Lifting: Moving auto components without proper ergonomics can lead to overexertion injuries.

‍

With real-time insights, manufacturers can identify risks before injuries occur, reducing downtime and improving efficiency.

‍

‍

Enhance Productivity with Data-Driven Ergonomic Insights

TuMeke’s platform uses AI and computer vision to analyze worker movements and provide actionable data. This enables manufacturers to:

‍

Optimize Workstation Design: Adjust workstations to reduce strain and improve efficiency.

Improve Training & Safety Compliance: Ensure workers use proper techniques to prevent injuries.

Track Trends & Measure Impact: Use data to refine ergonomic programs and drive continuous improvement.

‍

Industry Leaders Trust TuMeke to Prevent Workplace Injuries

"With TuMeke, we’ve reduced the time spent on manual assessments and can now focus on proactive solutions. Our teams are identifying risks earlier, reducing injuries, and keeping production on schedule."
— Corporate Health & Safety Director, Automotive Supplier
