Enhancing R&D Capability in the Asia Pacific Region ZF Expands China and Asia Pacific Headquarters

ZF Friedrichshafen AG has been deeply cultivating the Asia Pacific market for many years. At present, it has become one of the most important regional markets for the Group. Among them, China's single market is of great importance. In order to further enhance the Group’s R&D capabilities in the Asia-Pacific market and expand its market share in the Far East, the Group will expand its Asia Pacific regional headquarters in Shanghai, mainly adding new office areas, laboratories, and experimental stations. About 5 times now, it will expand from 11,000 square meters to 54,000 square meters.

In addition to adding corresponding office areas, the new building will be dominated by laboratories and test beds. In response, Dr. Stefan Sommer, CEO of ZF Group, who is also responsible for corporate R&D, stressed: "We will test products related to vehicle driveline and chassis technology in our newly built laboratory. Commercial vehicle transmissions and transmissions for construction machinery. It is worth mentioning that, after the expansion of the engineering technology center, engineers from different business units of the Group will have the opportunity to collaborate on R&D and test products in the same office building." This will undoubtedly Bring more benefits to engineers' R&D work. In the same area, mutual communication will become more convenient. The spark of knowledge and the source of creativity will be generated in the collision and communication. More importantly, engineers can adjust the product design according to the needs of the local market. Specially developed products for the Asia Pacific market. In addition, a new set of test equipment will be installed in the new building to specifically tune ZF's latest 9-speed automatic transmission. This transmission is expected to start production in China in 2017.

In 2013, ZF had sales of 3 billion euros in the Asia-Pacific region, an increase of 15% compared to 2012. It has 36 production-oriented companies in 14 countries in the Asia-Pacific region and employs 7,500 employees. ZF entered China in 1980.

The Shanghai-based engineering center was established in 2005 and is one of the eight major R&D centers of ZF. It is also an integral part of ZF's global R&D network.

SPC Pole Spinning Machine

Concrete Pole Spinning/Centrifugal Machine:

Concrete Pole Spinning/Centrifugal Machine is mainly apply to produce High strength centrifugal technology Prestressed Reinforced concrete pole(SPC pole) by spinning formed. According to customer's effeciency request, there are Single wheel spinning machine and Double wheel spinning machine at customer's option, it is equipped with a stepless speed-variation motor and a control panel, it works smoothly and its speeder is of wide-range. Its box base is sturdy and durable and easy for installation.


Spinning Machine's Advantages:

1. Unique "slot" design, change the screw limit between the bearing support and the base plate with the card slot and bolt limit. Both up and down sides of the spinning machine panel, undersurface and two sides of bearing support go through fine machining. Though the process is complex, it makes it more solid during high-frequency vibration of bearing support and the floor. Repair and replacement also have interchangeability.
