Global technology giant Schaeffler is promising visitors a unique and unforgettable experience on its stand at the forthcoming Automechanika show in Germany.

The company will combine innovation, information and interaction on its 1200 m2  stand at Frankfurt where 3D technology will let visitors experience first-hand the LuK RepSet 2CT, the new FAG SmartSET for commercial vehicles and INA engine expertise.

In line with this year’s ‘discover more’ theme, Schaeffler, which is celebrating its 40th anniversary in the automotive aftermarket, will demonstrate its technical excellence, intelligent automotive solutions and outstanding services during the exhibition which is being held on September 13-17th.

Visitors to stand 1, Level 0 in the Forum, will experience a virtual journey through three focus topics. Using 3D glasses, they will steer a small spaceship through the interior of a car engine to learn even more about the current engine components and repair solutions offered by INA, for example.

Michael Söding, President of the Schaeffler Automotive Aftermarket Management Board, said, “This kind of presentation gives us the chance to make increasingly complex technology understandable. Reducing fuel consumption and CO2 emissions, while increasing driving comfort, is also a topic of growing importance to the automotive aftermarket today.” He added, “At Automechanika, we will show distributors and garages how they can participate and profit from our innovation by using products and repair solutions from Schaeffler.”

Schaeffler will also be part of a special exhibition at the event called ‘Tomorrow’s Service & Mobility’. The ABT Schaeffler Formula-E race car, along with innovative system solutions for original equipment manufacture, like the E-Clutch, the E-Wheel Drive and the Schaeffler Hybrid Module – will be part of this special exhibition.

The Schaeffler stand will also feature a special focus on h of its LuK RepSet 2CT, the dry double clutch system repair solution and the FAG SmartSET for commercial vehicles, a new, easy-to-fit truck hub repair solution.

As well as products and repair solutions in all vehicle segments, the stand will also highlight Schaeffler’s REPXPERT brand. Technical trainers will be delivering hands-on demonstrations explaining the repair process, working on different products at six workbenches. They will also refer to the REPXPERT online portal, highlighting how it can generate added value to workshop professionals during their daily work.

Rouven Daniel, Marketing & Communications Director at Schaeffler Automotive Aftermarket, said,  “Whether it’s live demonstrations, explanations of an exhibit, our online REPXPERT portal, or using 3D virtual reality technology , our customers and visitors will experience our quality and expertise from a single source and in the highest quality. At Automechanika we will present solutions for the mobility of tomorrow. But we will also be looking back on a successful past, as Schaeffler is celebrating 40 years in the automotive aftermarket this year.”
