At the 8 Mile facility, Linamar is developing a new electric rear-axle module for hybrid CUVs that engineers say is simpler than those currently on the market and basically is bolted on.
Advanced prototyping technologies such as 3-D printing are being employed to design new types of gears, camshafts and other engine parts.
Linamar also plans to build almost 1 million subassemblies annually for a new 9-speed transmission at the site. All of its products are aimed at somehow helping automakers meet future fuel-efficiency and carbon-dioxide emissions rules (See related story: [email protected]
