Haldex Commercial Vehicle Systems announces the production of its 2 millionth brake shoe at a New Generation Friction Center.
Haldex has updated four friction centers with the most progressive manufacturing process in the relining industry, which includes new equipment upgrades and a 30 point inspection procedure to ensure product quality. Over the past two years, Haldex has invested over $1 million to create New Generation Friction Centers.
These production upgrades has led to many significant process and quality improvements. Several steps have been automated to yield higher quality and productivity.
* A 100% increase in reline capacity
* Improved paint processing ensures that each shoe is sealed with premium corrosion protection
* New hydraulic riveters and regular torque testing eliminates the possibility of loose rivets
* Automated processes and a lean production layout decreases product transfer time and reduces work in process inventory which ultimately lessens turnaround time and helps lower customer costs
