Example: A Russian garbage truck manufacturer achieved a rapid return on investment after implementation.
The upgrade of materials has significantly improved the quality of the tail and extended its lifespan, leading to cost reduction!
The tail of the regular garbage collection truck manufactured by the Russian waste collection vehicle manufacturer MosKomMash was made of ordinary steel with a thickness of 8mm and used reinforcements at the bottom. In response to changes in the economy, the company began to seek greater efficiency in production and materials. **Challenges** - Since they focused on mass production, they had not considered introducing Hardox® wear-resistant steel plates. ~Using Hardox® 450 in their truck production~ 1. During the recession, a sales representative from SSAB Moscow visited. 2. The tail of two test vehicles was replaced from a thickness of 8mm to 5mm. 3. Reinforcements were removed. The introduction of Hardox® wear-resistant steel plates, the first of its kind for this application in Russia, significantly improved the quality and reliability of MosKomMash trucks. *For more details, please contact us or download the PDF materials to view.*
