Case Study: Renault Trucks enhances electric motor assembly with Desoutter Industrial Tools

Renault Trucks streamlines electric motor assembly with Desoutter

Renault Trucks faced the challenge of adapting its Bourg-en-Bresse production site to manufacture electric trucks. This required creating a new assembly line for electric motors, where operators had to perform multiple tightening operations on connectors and cables while rotating the engine, all while complying with strict parameters and ensuring full traceability with their SUMO ERP system. They partnered with vendor Desoutter Industrial Tools to find a solution.

Desoutter implemented a flexible, cordless tool station solution featuring a battery-powered trolley with Wi-Fi-enabled tools controlled by a CONNECT smart hub. This Desoutter ecosystem provided the adaptable technology needed for the complex assembly process and ensured full ERP compatibility for total traceability, successfully transforming Renault Trucks' production floor for electric motor assembly.
