Wabco has extended its long-term agreement with Kamaz to supply a range of technologies, including Wabco’s 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 incremental business for Wabco, including ITS 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 range of trucks, tractors and dump trucks.
Introduced in 2014, Wabco’s mBSP enables vehicle makers to equip truck and bus platforms with either ABS or EBS anywhere in the world.
Based on results of a tender, 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).
Local Wabco application engineers support Kamaz throughout product development and completion of successful homologation. In addition, it is planned Wabco’s factory in Russia will produce braking-related components.
