WABCO Inks Long Term Deal with Russian HD Truck Manufacturer
WABCO Holdings Inc. , a leading supplier of technologies and services for commercial vehicles, has extended its long-term agreement with KAMAZ to supply a comprehensive range of advanced technologies, including its modular braking system platform (mBSP™) for anti-lock braking (ABS) and electronic braking systems (EBS).
The agreement will support KAMAZ’s series production in Russia and the Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS), resulting in new incremental business for WABCO, including WABCO’s support as sole supplier for KAMAZ’s newest heavy-duty vehicle platform.
Headquartered in Russia, KAMAZ is the country’s largest manufacturer of heavy-duty trucks. It produces a wide range of trucks, tractors and dump trucks whose new generation performs at world-class standards for vehicle safety, efficiency and electronic connectivity.
Introduced in 2014, WABCO’s mBSP enables vehicle makers to flexibly equip their global truck and bus platforms with either ABS or EBS anywhere in the world. By avoiding different braking configurations, WABCO’s mBSP is designed to save development time, reduces design overhead and lowers production costs for original equipment manufacturers.
The extended agreement marks further expansion of WABCO’s partnership with KAMAZ for supply of ABS and EBS, automatic traction control, electronic stability control (ESC), and OptiRide™ electronically controlled air suspension (ECAS).
