With this new facility, we are committed to bring greater value to our customers in the form of fast, reliable and cost-effective access to outstanding service and parts,? said Andreas Schick, CEO Schaeffler Asia Pacific.
The remanufacturing facility is designed as per the best practice layout, technologies, equipment and workflow from Schaeffler?s existing aerospace bearing remanufacturing centers in Europe and North America. The 500 m2 floor area is optimized to fulfill the high global standards of FAG Aerospace and as mandated by aviation authorities. The facility offers service inspection Level 1 and 2 components and also provides original OEM spare parts replacement. After refurbishment, the bearings will be as ?good as new?.
