Keep on trucking!

It’s been a busy few months on the shop floor and in the design studio at KP Industries.

Every task we are given is a challenge and when we were approached by global commercial vehicle giant, Leyland Trucks, we were privileged to be in such illustrious company.

A business which has thrived over the past 50 years and has become the go-to company for transportation issues and world-class manufacturing, Leyland Trucks is synonymous with its brand image and the vehicles it delivers across the planet.

KP Industries designed, manufactured and installed one of its overhead conveyor systems to Leyland Trucks in a deal which has enhanced its reputation within the manufacturing industry.

The £300,000 contract used state-of-the-art technology and encompassed a global supply chain to deliver the product ahead of schedule to the Lancashire truck manufacturing giant. KP Industries worked with world leaders in electronics, Schneider Electric and hoist equipment specialists Donati, as part of the project.

KPI worked with the project management team at Leyland on the project which will move engines from their assembly point across its factory and lower them into their final position. The unique system was fitted with a maintenance hospital bay for any amendments which needed to be made before the engines reached their final position.
