The system enables Nexteer to operate under one common global architecture to deliver high-quality product performance, improve value and optimize global production capacity.
"At Nexteer, we demonstrate technology leadership not only in what we do, but in how we do it. We excel at in-house design, validation, manufacturing and motion control technologies. We're continuously innovating in our production systems and processes to achieve greater productivity and quality," said Spicer.
Nexteer currently operates eight manufacturing facilities and one technical center in China for EPS and driveline systems, including two EPS Joint Ventures in Chongqing and Wuhan. As the world's third largest steering supplier and top supplier in Rack-Assist and Single-Pinion-Assist EPS systems, the 10-millionth EPS production milestone in China addresses the market's growing demand for EPS benefits as well as reiterates Nexteer's goal in providing light-weight, fuel-efficient, environmental-friendly and ADAS-enabling steering technology to its customers.
