Bajaj Chetak scooter factory in India - two wheelers for the masses (archival)

Описание: Men work on the assembly line at a Bajaj Chetak scooter factory in India. It is the only major component of Bajaj’s scooters that is put together on the plant premises. The parts are sourced from various vendors and are assembled by the hardworking hands of men clad.

Standing in front of each other, the workers complete their part of the engine assembly and move onto the next mill.

The roles carried out by each of the workers are flexible and change from time to time ensuring that every hand on the assembly floor is capable of replicating the other. If a worker is unable to fit a part onto the engine, then the production line stops and the total output time of the line is recalculated to consider the time it will take to fix the defect or issue on hand.

The Bajaj Chetak was a popular Indian-made motor scooter produced by the Bajaj Auto company.] The Chetak is named after Chetak, the legendary horse of Indian warrior Rana Pratap Singh.

Originally based on Italian Vespa Sprint, Chetak was an affordable means of transportation for millions of Indian families for decades and is lovingly called Hamara Bajaj (Our Bajaj).

Around 1980, the Vespa-licensed design was replaced with an all-new in-house design that shared the same general appearance and style. During its heyday its chief competitor was LML NV made by LML India as a licensed copy of the Vespa PX 150. In the face of rising competition from bikes and cars, Chetak lost ground in India, and production was discontinued in 2005.
