“The lightweight design of this axle can reduce the weight of the entire trailer with 3 axles by 120kg, which improves the fuel economy and transportation capability of the whole trailer. Furthermore, it is cost saving as its hub unit is lifetime maintenance free dur- ing the life of the vehicle operation, which can reduce operating cost by about US$8,000 to US$12,000.”
For this product, he said the company was targeting logistic companies that ran their trucks 24 hours. “For companies that operate in such a way in which they allocate 3 drivers to a truck so that it can run 24 hours non-stop, this product would be ideal. As less mainte- nance means less downtime, it is cost saving as well.”
Meanwhile, the 10T Lightweight Axle, he said, was the optimal choice as it reduced the semi-trailer self-weight and improved transportation efficiency. Compared to the common axle, he explained, each lightweight axle was lighter by about 40kg and a semi-trailer with tri-axles was lighter by about 120kg. Using the lightweight suspension would improve the loading rate and efficiency. Furthermore, the maintenance was easy and convenient. The lightweight axle had the CSE wheel hub, which meant the bearings, oil, seals, grease and related items would be sealed tightly in the hub. During maintenance, the tyre could be removed quickly and easily with the wheel and brake drum together. Compared to the common axle, the maintenance time could be reduced by about 50 per cent.
“Tyre wear and tear as well as fuel consumption would be reduced as well,” he added.
Besides axles, the company carried a full range of spare-parts for semi-trail- ers and tankers. Moving forward, Wong revealed that the company would like to focus more on spare-parts.
To foster a closer relationship with customers, Wong recently organised the company’s first golf tournament at Meru Valley Golf & Country Club in Ipoh on 19th November, followed by a dinner at the club house. The event attracted 60 goffers from 20 truck companies. The winners were Jack Chew (1st place), Tan Chee Kean (2nd), Lee Keng Wan (3rd), Michael Lee(4th) and Winson Chin (5th).
About 80 guests attended the dinner-cum-prize giving ceremony. The pro- gramme included L1 product presentation by representatives from Yonglitai Axles China and a lucky draw.
In conjunction with the golf tournament, the company and its principal Yonglitai donated RM10,000 to Poi Lam School Old Students’ Association . Its Chair- man, Lawrence Singh, received the donation on the association’s behalf.
