State-Of-The-Art Manufacturing Technologies

As our family of products has grown, so have our manufacturing capabilities for cab suspensions and heavy-duty truck suspensions. We have continued to expand our facilities and employ state-of-the-art manufacturing processes to build the most reliable and durable components in the market to ensure our customers’ overall products perform better.

Link is always looking ahead by analyzing emerging manufacturing technologies to apply to future projects. We try to produce suspension products on a larger scale using lean manufacturing in order to and to achieve manufacturing excellence and maximize the customers value. We support our ability to deliver highly efficient manufacturing processes through our commitment to investing in the highest quality CNC bending centers, laser cutting systems and powder-coat painting systems.

Our commitment to investing in quality and efficiency has also led us to achieve IATF 16949:2016 quality certification. This ensures we are able to fully address OEM requirements. The manufacturing processes we have put in to place also represent a commitment to environmental stewardship as highlighted in our ISO 14001:2015 certification.
