Knorr-Bremse, a manufacturer of braking systems and supplier of additional subsystems for rail and commercial vehicles, says it has won a major order to supply brake actuators to a European customer.
By winning a major order worth 'low three-digit millions of euros', Knorr-Bremse says it has secured the future of its existing scope of supply to a key-account customer in Europe. Over the next eight years, from January 1, 2020 to December 31, 2027, Knorr-Bremse is to supply more than three million brake actuators to the customer.
