Our systems are used throughout Bosch Rexroth’s Fountain Inn, South Carolina, assembly plant, the recipient of this year’s award. The Bosch Rexroth plant manufactures hydraulic pumps for construction equipment, farm machinery, and other heavy-duty off-highway machines, and uses CTS’ leak detection units for in-line leak testing of assembled products. “We use in-line leak testing after assembly to ensure an absolute leak-free product is delivered to our customers,” Bosch Rexroth’s director of operations Joerg Schaeuble said in an ASSEMBLY Magazine article announcing the award. “Depending on the […] product, we select the most sensitive leak-test process, primarily pressure decay and mass flow. Bosch Rexroth and Cincinnati Test Systems have had a long and successful business relationship, with CTS providing numerous leak testing systems for Bosch Rexroth over the years. CTS equipment can be found not only in the Fountain Inn plant, but also in many of Bosch Rexroth’s worldwide production facilities. The Assembly Plant of the Year Award aims to identify the assembly facility that has applied the best and most effective processes to reduce production costs, increase productivity, reduce time to market, and improve product quality. First awarded in 2004, it showcases America’s finest production facilities and the people, products, and processes that make them successful. All manufacturers that assemble products in the United States are eligible. The fourth-annual ASSEMBLY Show will take place in Rosemont, Illinois, from October 25-27 at the Donald E.
