Goizper is a world-leading supplier of brake clutch combinations for heavy duty manufacturing equipment, including stamping presses, metalworking, and can bodymakers. Goizper’s customers were building faster and heavier equipment, conventional friction materials were not able to keep up with the increased performance requirements.
ProTec collaborated with the Company to understand engineering requirements and limitations, and through all phases of design, testing and approvals. By deploying its network of friction application engineers, ProTec quickly sourced the optimal combination of materials and manufacturing systems, achieving a 35% savings.
In this issue, BUSRide Maintenance continues “Focus On: Brakes,” a cooperative forum series that addresses the critical design and manufacturing elements associated with effective heavy-duty brake systems for buses and motorcoaches.
ProTec was asked to provide a reliable, cost-effective, single source for multiple wet friction parts and components that were previously sourced from multiple vendors.
