KESLA products are results of cooperation

10.09.2018 ニュース

At Kesla the staff keeps its ears open all the time trying to know the expectations of customers. We do benchmarking, follow the markets in general and interact with customers to find the right impulses. The best of the ideas is chosen for the real products.

In the phase of realization, different departments, such as Product Managers, Sales personnel, R&D and Production, are working intensely together to evaluate different solutions. As this phase's result, a prototype is being designed and produced. The prototype is usually very similar to the final product. Normally the prototype is made for a customer who is ready to test it and give feedback about the product. The product solution is being fine-tuned according to the feedback: settings are adjusted, components are changed or re-programming is done. Finally, after this test phase the product is ready for the markets. E.g. the new KESLA trailers that were presented at FinnMETKO exhibition in the end of August were on the designers’ desk last autumn (2017) and the practical test with the prototype started in the first quarter of 2018. Now, after the first public display, the trailers are fine-tuned further and after that the fluent production in ensured.

The final exam though is when products are opened for sales later this year, and first trailers from production line will be ready during the first quarter of 2019.
