Process
There are two main processes in the manufacturing of synchronizer rings.
Forging: the forge production unit is organised in homogeneous cells, integrating all operations from tube sawing to stress relieving in a continuous flow to eliminate the build up of Work in Progress. VTL use some unique die design and technology to reduce raw material consumption and waste.
Machining: the machining production unit is organised in cells, comprising of fully automated CNC turning centers including linked pair machined for dual operation and twin-spindle machines integrating automatic gauging and cleaning stations.
