Customer oriented technology
The best way to define the daily work of the ADR group’s technical offices.

Nowadays, the product engineer is a key figure in all companies who have understood that strict collaboration with manufacturers from the very first stages of a project is the winning strategy in our global, third millennium world.

The group’s internationality and its Italian inventive are the secrets behind the competitiveness and competence of an organisation that has chosen never to be satisfied with results.

Research
The heart of technological innovation is research.

The collaboration of ADR group company study centres with famed international university institutes, with the most qualified vehicle manufacturers, from the starting stages of a new project, means being able to define product characteristics and functions based on customer expectations and growing together.

The international core of the ADR group places it in a privileged position with different realities and enriches its know-how in a sector racing towards the future

Experience and competence at the service of innovation and safety.


Experimentation

Developing new products and improving production are only possible through ongoing experimentation with new technical solutions and simulating the most critical service conditions.

The ADR test centre, an integral part of the Uboldo plant, is the only one in Europe able to submit axles to a full test.

The ADR roller test bench is the heart of the laboratory and can test axles of up to 15 tons, at a speed of 100 km/h, thanks to its 500 kW power.

…and then, the final verdict: the field one with lab vehicles designed in ADR combined with the collaboration of main manufacturers.



Homologation

ADR braking axles are homologated to European Community directive standards.

The technical characteristics of ADR products are recognised in all Community area Countries and in those connected to them.

Having homologated axles means that manufacturers can safely define vehicle characteristics from very early project stages and create a product in line with standards in force in industrialised countries: thus the double goal of standardising your product and widening your commercial horizons.

The ADR customer also knows that it can count on an expert, prepared partner in both the design stage and during field testing.

Along with conformity to Community directives, ADR products are also approved by local standards: for example, by TUV in the German Federal Republic and by CEMAGREF and UTAC in France.
