With over 1,200 employees and an annual turnover of AUD 1 billion, CMV Truck & Bus is an extensive dealer and service network for Mack Trucks, Volvo Trucks, Volvo Buses and UD Trucks.
The company has six subsidiaries as well as ten authorised repair service partners all over Victoria. The new subsidiary in Laverton is one of Australia’s largest commercial vehicle dealers – with 105 workstations in total.
The customer had two fully-equipped brake test lanes including roller set lift, load simulation and axle play detection installed. The subsidiary also has an integrated, digital MLT 3000 headlight tester. The equipment integrated in this test lane therefore significantly exceeds the usual Australian standards. The front area of the test lane is used as a sighting station to detect problems with the suspension, the brakes or the headlights. The second test lane is located at the rear of the workshop pit.
This is where all the defects are repaired and where the test report, which gives the customer an overview of all the repairs carried out, is printed.Following implementation of the first project with CMV, which was only made possible thanks to the commitment of our former Managing Director of MAHA New Zealand, Bruce Hundley, we have received requests for further CMV subsidiaries. We are proud that we succeeded in implementing this fantastic project for our customer in Australia.
