To mark an association stretching back more than 20 years, 2304 ZF-Passau has received an award from 236 Hyundai Heavy Industries.
ZF is a leading worldwide automotive supplier for driveline and chassis technology, and its ZF Division Off-Road Driveline Technology and Axle Systems specialises in the development and production of transmissions and axles for agricultural and construction machines as well as axle systems for buses and trucks.
Hyundai Heavy Industries, the South Korean construction equipment manufacturer, has used ZF products for more than 20 years, and by presenting ZF with the Hyundai Appreciation Award it "expresses high esteem for the trustful cooperation with ZF-Passau." Hyundai's senior executive vice president, Byeong-Ku Choe, presented the award to Dr Manfred Schwab, group executive of ZF-Passau.
Dr Schwab said: "Currently Hyundai equips nearly all wheel loaders, mobile excavators and lift trucks with ZF transmissions and axles, which are almost exclusively produced and assembled in Passau." The company also reported that its stand at Bauma was a "complete success with 30 machines being sold from the stand." Dealers ordered another 100 machines.
"The new 9 series aroused considerable interest and positive feedback," said marketing manager Michel de Weert. "In addition, with the new 22tonne rehandling excavator R210W-9MH, the 30tonne R290LC-9LR with long reach feature and the 50tonne demolition excavator R520LC-9 DM, Hyundai has penetrated promising new market segments and will continue to expand these activities." The newly-developed wheel loaders with load sensing technology and new driver's cab also created a great deal of attention, he said.
