Complete Commitment to Quality Since 1982

Founded in 1982 by Sharon Cannarsa (CEO of Systrand Manufacturing) and her husband Tony, Systrand was built on a culture of taking on complex precision manufacturing challenges that conventional machine shops avoided.

We established our industry reputation through emergency sourcing and ultra-precision gear and shaft manufacturing. Operating under tight OEM automotive launch timelines required building a nimble, highly responsive organization with quality and dimensional accuracy built into every level of our operations.

Over four decades of working directly with top-tier automotive OEMs and global system integrators, we have repeatedly demonstrated that early co-engineering and collaborative problem-solving are vital to maintaining supply chain resilience and exceeding strict NVH performance thresholds.

An Established Global Leader in Precision Components

Today, Systrand is a recognized Tier 1 global leader in manufacturing high-precision transmission components for electric vehicles (EV), hybrid powertrains (HEV), internal combustion engines, and heavy-duty drivelines. Over 1,000,000 EV/HEV components produced by Systrand are currently operating reliably in the field.

Our operational success is driven by a comprehensive Quality Operating System (QOS) focused on continuous real-time process monitoring, statistical process control (SPC), and structured root-cause resolution.

This systematic approach guarantees that every precision component consistently satisfies rigorous customer design parameters, statutory rules, and quality specifications while maintaining a safe, efficient workplace for our engineering team.

Training and Processes That Deliver Superior Quality

At Systrand, quality is not an inspection event—it is an active operational discipline practiced across every shift. We maintain continuous alignment with global OEM requirements through strict organizational protocols:

  • Comprehensive training programs for machine operators and quality technicians in APQP, PPAP, and zero-defect protocols.
  • Continuous investment in advanced gear honing, internal gear hard skiving, cylindrical grinding, and 100% NVH acoustic noise testing.
  • Systematic process optimization to reduce lead times, minimize scrap rates, and optimize cost structures for large-scale procurement programs.
  • Uncompromising transparency and technical collaboration across every stage of prototyping and full-scale production.
