Name Brand ProductsWell, some people like brand names but to me with most items its just a name on a box. Some name brands and off brands are even made at the same place and owned be the same company. Don't get me wrong some brand names are better. With important stuff you might want to go with a well known supplier to be positive that it is of high quality. Food off brand, expensive stuff you might as well get an on brand if your only saving a few pennies, but with things like soap you could have a preference. AnswerThe question is more complex than you may suspect and leads toward the answer.

For certain many identical items are sold under different names. One may be better recognized than others.

On the same token, many items are similar to, but not exactly the same as a more advertised one.

What makes one better than the other? Perhaps it is the advertising... so the best known one wins. Perhaps it is price..so another may win (or not...as many lesser advertised items profit on the concept of being percienved as being limited, special or different and costing more).

Taste, appearance, usefullness, quality of construction..really all matters of personal opinion.

So, is this the best way to ask this question? (I guess it's a different question if you ask it any other way...and then its the best way to ask that question.....)

yesss... cuz people r more fimiliar with that type of brand...i would by a brand i knew was good and if it isn't u just waisted ur moneyyy!!! so i would say yessss.

Answer

Short for Enterprise Resource Planning software. ERP software aids and controls the ERP management system, which is a system that integrates and automates all facets of business operations. This includes planning, manufacturing, and sales, while more recent ERP software products encompass marketing, inventory control, order tracking, customer service, finance and human resources as well.

Answer:

ERP - Enterprise resource planning is a company-wide computer software system used to manage and coordinate all the resources, information, and functions of a business from shared data stored.

It is an electronic resource planning of an enterprise. It is useful as it saves lots of time of every individual within the enterprise. It is highly safe as data is protected in a particular server. Only individuals authorized to edit and save any data within the ERP system can do it and rest cannot.

It is a fast electronic data processing program. Enterprises are benefited with it in many ways as mentioned above.

Humans and Machines TogetherCars are built by a combination of humans and robots (programmed by humans) on an assembly line. Some cars are totally built by hand, basically limited production cars, classic cars, or something special. Some others are totally built by machines. Quality checks are normally made by humans. All cars are built through an assembly line process, some on the assembly line, some with the parts going to the car instead of the car going to the parts.

There are two distinct assembly processes involved, one for unibody design cars (the most popular type today) and another for body on frame vehicles (most all trucks, and most rear wheel drive cars).

In the unibody design, the body weld shop is the first stage, in which the major body panels - the floor, the roof and the side panels, are first tack welded within a fixture. Later, after the body is released from the framing fixture, "respot" welds are applied, likely 1500 or more, and most by robot. Reinforcement brackets and supports for components are then welded and the body becomes very stiff. Unibody cars have a lot of heavy supporting parts which require arc welding as well, usually wire fed MIG welders are used, either by robot or by manual means.

Then bolt on components, including the doors, the trunk lid and the hood are assembled, using special fixtures to maintain proper clearances for a good fit.

The next major stage is that the body is selectively metal finished by disc wheel abrasives to eliminate any defects caused by dirt within dies. It takes a special skill to do this job, even to notice the potential defects which will become glaringly obvious after painting.

The next stage is phosphate coating, which cleans all the die oils and any dirt and applies a texture to the metal for painting.

Next stage is prime painting, which is almost always done by dipping in a long, deep bath unit and use of an electric current to "plate" the primer to the metal. The primer paint is baked in ovens running about 200 degrees Celsius.

The next stage is topcoat paint and again, most of this has been automated with either reciprocating beam sprayers or robotics. As there are usually multiple color possibilities, multiple paint pipes run to the spray booths, and back to keep the paint circulating. Multiple layers of topcoat are applied, each one having to be set up to allow a "flash off" time to elapse between coats. Thereafter the topcoat is baked.

Thereafter a similar process is done using "clear coat" paint, and baked again. Thus, three baking stages for the body - primer, topcoat and clearcoat.

Body framing, welding and painting consume about two-thirds of the cars total time in assembly. But, the last third of the time in system, the "general assembly" stage, the "bolts and nuts" assembly, occupies most of the human labor.

The interior is first assembled in a logical order - floor carpets, windshields and door glass, heating and air conditioning, pedals, headliners, lighting, instrument panels, steering columns. The last stage for the body interior is generally the seat installation.

The next stage is the power train installation. Before the body is finished, in parallel time, the engine has been "dressed" with wiring, fuel injection system, and accessory drives - generator, air conditioner, power steering pump. It is then mated to a supporting structure, called a "cradle," mated to a transmission and further work is done to install the exhaust pipes, drive shafts, front and rear hubs (or solid rear axle, in some cases), brakes, springs and shock absorbers. These are set up in a special fixture to support these components. The fixture will later raise these up under the body, and workers install the "engine cradle" and the attached components to the body, working below the body which is now supported from overhead on a moving conveyor.

The final assembly stage is where the wiring is connected, fuel tank installed, radiator is installed with connecting hoses, all the fluids added, the wheels are installed and the bumpers, grille and external lights assembled.

Now the car can be started and is tested using a dynamometer to check acceleration, transmission function and brakes. The steering alignment is later done on rollers with the engine spinning the wheels.

Any assembly error corrections are done usually in stalls, similar to an auto garage, and then the car is shipped.

The body on frame vehicles are built in a similar fashion, with these differences:

The body is simpler, less parts to weld, as the attaching surfaces for the engine and suspension are part of the frame, not the body.

The frame acts as the assembly fixture, and the engine/transmission unit is directly assembled to the frame, along with the front hubs, rear axle, suspension components, chassis wiring, steering and brake parts and the fuel tank. This comprises the "chassis." This work can be accomplished more easily, standing above the frame instead of under the body as with unibody cars.

Thereafter the body is lowered to the finished chassis, and a similar process is employed as with unibody cars.

Most of these letters that follow the brand name refer to the different packages that where available at the time the car was made. Some refer to Sports packages or high performance models others might refer to one that has all the available features such as power windows seats and so forth. Hope This Helps, EzForJesus

AnswerI believe they are RPO codes (Regular Production Options).

Some cars have taken on nicknames of sorts due to this. An example is people referring to Camaro and Firebirds as having LS1's, which is referring to the engine.

Sometimes manufacturers use them for marketing. WS6, Z06, Z28, etc. (As you can see, I'm f/y-body biased, hah!) as package option codes.

gl means grand lux mg - Morris garages gt-grand tourer this was on most older cars

Mercedes - SLK. The S stands for Sport (sports car), L stands for Light (light weight) and K stands for Kompressor (supercharger). All MB's with superchargers will have the Kompressor logo on them somewhere. Either on the side or rear.
