ZF Aftermarket will host several technical training sessions throughout the Automotive Aftermarket Products Expo (AAPEX), with topics being covered such as high-voltage overviews and ZF transmission technology. During the course of AAPEX, ZF technical trainings will take place at ZF Aftermarket booth No. 5062, the AAPEX Let’s Tech Stage and the Mobility Garage Stage.
Hands-On Technical Training
“Industry week not only gives our customers the opportunity to receive first-hand information, but it also gives them a hands-on experience that we know provides a more meaningful and memorable training,” said Technical Training Manager Dirk Fuchs. “What we do here every year helps us learn more about unresolved questions in the market which allows us to further grow and adapt our trainings to the needs of the market.”
Alternative drive concepts, digitalization, and autonomous driving present market participants with major challenges. With the complexity the cars the importance of technical know-how will increase rapidly. For this reason, the transfer of technical knowledge has top priority at ZF Aftermarket and wants its workshop partners also to share in this knowledge to be successful in the future. “Being part of the Aftermarket Division of a leading automotive supplier, gives us access to first-hand knowledge we can share with workshops,” commented Fuchs. “Through our training classes and field work, our partners receive the best possible technical know-how to position themselves even more competitively.”
The ZF Aftermarket Technical Training team is excited to host technical training sessions throughout Industry Week – those of which are being presented at booth #5062 will also be recorded live directly onto Facebook. ZF Aftermarket will take the stage at the Let’s Tech Stage on Wednesday, Nov. 6 at 10 a.m., where Fuchs will present Brakes: The New World of Braking with ADAS Systems. This topic discusses the impact emergency braking systems, and these new technologies has on the common wear product, brake pads. An additional session covering steering and suspension technology will be presented on the Mobility Garage stage Thursday, Nov. 7 at 9:30 a.m.
