I couldn’t fail to mention that today is National Manufacturing Day  🏭 This industry closely intersects with the automotive sector. I think that it’s even foundational to the automotive domain, crafting the tools and equipment essential for the development of trendy, reliable, eco-friendly, and tech-driven vehicles we all enjoy so much 🚗  The thing that tightly unites the two industries is that they’re not only about hefty equipment and machinery but have software solutions at the heart of their operations. Visiting major exhibitions like Automechanika Frankfurt and IAA TRANSPORTATION were the best conformation of this. I’m eager to see where our industries will be going in 2025!💡🔧 #NationalManufacturingDay #ManufacturingIndustry #ManufacturingInnovation #SmartManufacturing #Industry4_0

Back at Automechanika Frankfurt, the mother of all automotive spare parts exhibitions, after the pandemic. While visitor numbers were lower than previous years—likely due to global political instability and rising inflation—the event remains as significant as ever. In these challenging times, I believe the industry must prioritize quality over quantity, not just in products but in our partnerships. It's about building strong, reliable collaborations that drive long-term sustainability for the automotive aftermarket. While sales turnover is important, what we truly need is a healthier, more resilient approach for the future. Now more than ever, it's crucial for all players in the industry to support each other as we navigate through this market slowdown. Let's focus on building a sustainable future together! #AutomechanikaFrankfurt #AutomotiveAftermarket #Sustainability #Collaboration #QualityOverQuantity #IndustryGrowth #dtecparts #dtecplus

Automechanika Frankfurt is Europe's most important trade fair for the automotive industry - that's why we are all there. The automotive industry is experiencing a profound transformation, driven by megatrends such as the electrification of transport, the intensive digitisation of processes, the implementation of solutions based on artificial intelligence or the optimisation of supply chains. Dynamic changes, evolving markets and increasing competition - this is what we are facing in the postcovid era, and the market is ruthlessly revising traditional business models. Process automation, digitalisation, excellent operational efficiency (LEAN) or smart technologies (SMART) are no longer so much wishes, but MUST HAVE of the modern world. #Automechanika #Frankfurt #Automotive #Industry #Brakes

Due to the trend of automotive lightweighting and the focus on topics such as "plastic instead of steel," JZT, known for its precision plastic gears and other precision injection molding parts, has garnered attention in the market. Their main products, including automotive precision plastic gears and other precision injection molding parts, are well-regarded in China. One of their notable products is the high-strength automotive wiper system precision injection molded gear. It utilizes a new type of plastic with lower density and undergoes special structural treatment, resulting in gears that are not only lightweight and high-precision but also have a longer lifespan and higher strength. These high-precision gears are crucial components of the automotive transmission system, typically found in the wiper system under the car's bonnet. Through continuous research and development along with technological innovation, JZT has developed a range of high-quality, high-performance lightweight parts. This includes precision injection-molded gears and high-strength engineering plastics for accelerator parts, all of which meet the demands of well-known automobile brands such as Mercedes-Benz, BMW, Audi, Volkswagen, and GM. Additionally, their products are used in new energy vehicles like Tesla, BYD, RISO, Azure, and Xiaopeng, showcasing their versatility and relevance in the evolving automotive industry. #Lightweight #LightweightAsia2024 #automotivelightweight To learn more about the market trends, stay tuned to Lightweight Asia 2024 Date: 03-05 July 2024 Venue: Shanghai New International Expo Center  Learn more：https://lnkd.in/gid2RGSb

As a marketing manager constantly on the move, mastering goal setting has been pivotal, especially as I balance demanding professional roles with personal wellness. My recent involvement in a major industry event, such as the Automechanika Frankfurt, where I designed our booth and managed our participation, underscored the importance of this skill. Through coaching, I’ve learned to manage my energy efficiently, ensuring that I remain productive and healthy, irrespective of my location. Effective goal setting intertwines professional achievements with personal well-being. It requires setting realistic goals aligned with personal values, which motivate without overwhelming. This strategic approach not only enhances professional performance but also supports a fulfilling personal life, demonstrating that success in both realms is achievable with the right balance. To everyone striving to balance their careers with personal health and happiness, remember: it’s entirely possible. All it takes is a thoughtful strategy, tailored to your unique life dynamics and goals. #AMF2024 #coaching #goalsetting #learningonthepath

The last treasure of the automotive industry... Today, Automechanika Frankfurt – the world's largest trade fair for the automotive aftermarket – is opening its doors and I am looking forward to many new insights on this highly important market segment. While the whole auto industry is under massive pressure, the aftermarket continues to offer very healthy margins and a stable stream of revenues in turbulent times. Therefore, it is no surprise that many market participants (OEMs as well as suppliers and independent aftermarket players) are doubling down on this important business segment. Unlike the new car business that is gradually moving from combustion engines to EVs, the aftermarket for the existing car park will continue to be skewed towards conventional cars for decades to come - offering profit potential for the established carmakers and suppliers. The comprehensive service network coverage of established OEMs is also a key instrument to fend off Chinese car manufacturers in Europe who are still weak on this important element of the value chain. Nonetheless, there are also numerous challenges for the aftermarket: the low new car sales of the past few years as well as the increasing electrification have a negative impact on the business potential while lack of skilled workshop technicians represents a massive growth barrier for many players. Supply chain disruptions and cost inflation have the same negative effects on the business that they have for the overall industry. Irrespective of these challenges, the aftermarket continues to be the last treasure of the automotive industry – preserving and growing the market position will be a strategic imperative for future success in the industry. We at Oliver Wyman are proud to help many of our clients on this journey.
