Clean steels for critical engine components

High-quality camshaft blanks from Corus save time and boost productivity for Volvo Trucks.

Corus has a contract to supply Volvo Trucks with precision-machined camshaft blanks for use in the manufacture of critical engine components. 

Corus supplies the camshaft blanks directly to Volvo Trucks’ manufacturing facility in Skovde, Sweden. The blanks, which have been faced and centred, can be placed directly onto Volvo’s CNC machining cell, which produces the final cam profile. This saves a considerable amount of time in setting up and processing the camshafts.

Lars Andersson, Corus product manager, said: “This contract demonstrates Corus’s commitment to helping the supply chain enhance productivity and improve component performance.”
