As previously reported, an increasing number of cars are equipped with more than one water pump. In addition to the primary pump of the cooling system, electrically powered additional water pumps can be mounted for various reasons. We have just added 8 new references to our programme, which now includes 43 references.
Additional water pumps are used, for example, for separate cooling of:
It certainly does not require the imagination of a child to imagine the many ways 3D printing could change the spare parts industry as we know it today. Imagine being able to produce and deliver replacement parts at the push of a button when the demand arises, and never have to struggle with back orders. Imagine never having to look back on storage shelves with unsold parts. That sounds nice - right? But is that at all possible?
Triscan's sensor family has gained yet another member. More than 200 references are stocked and ready for delivery. As always, these are OE-quality sensors, which are 100% function-tested - and the programme is wide-ranging in relation to the European car park.
The ability of a spare part wholesaler to create a solid bottom line not only depends on purchase prices, but is significantly influenced by many other factors - including the wholesaler's product portfolios coverage of the car park, order fill, delivery time to the market, stock value, purchase frequency and last but not least interest rate level.
In the automotive industry - whether it's car manufacturers, car dealers, or wholesalers in the aftermarket - consolidating has meant that over the last decade many have become relatively few. Most will agree that this development has taken place very quickly, creating new opportunities on the one hand, but also many challenges for the players in the automotive industry on the other hand. However, experts and futurists concede that the next few decades will bring far more profound changes in the industry.
We are more than halfway into 2019 and the automotive industries media are full of news about changed market conditions and new technology that already, but especially in the long term, announces major changes for the players in the industry. But this development also opens new opportunities for Triscan. We are experiencing increasing interest in our strong competences in the complex/niche oriented product groups, where all wholesalers large and small, can achieve great benefits in a conceptual collaboration with us.
Once again we have news regarding parts for cars with alternative driveline. At Triscan you can now get parts within undercarriage and engine control for models from Chevrolet, Citroën, Hyundai, Kia, Mercedes, Mitsubishi, Opel, Peugeot, Toyota and VW.
We are constantly developing new parts for Tesla model S - and just recently, we have also added parts for Tesla X to our range. Status is that 5 track control arms are stocked.
Our programme in parking sensors has got a great start since its introduction just over a year ago. We attribute this to the fact that our own in-house testing equipment has played a significant role in the selection of our manufacturers and subsequently in our complaints handling.
We now offer Budweg electric motors for cars equipped with electrically operated parking brake - EPB. When the electrically operated parking brake fails, the brake caliper is usually okay. In such cases, there is a lot of money to be saved when it is only the electric motor that is replaced.
Our programme in electric motors so far includes the following 7 numbers - fits a total of 54 calipers:
