The Kalyani Group had promoted Kalyani Wheels as a part of its diversification plan. Kalyani Wheels then had a technical collaboration with Lemmerz Werke, Germany. Subsequently, Lemmerz Werke became a joint venture partner and the new company was christened as Kalyani Lemmerz Ltd (KLL). The company manufactures Wheel Rims for utility vehicles, light and heavy commercial vehicles and tractors.
Lemmerz is a world leader in wheel rim technology and supplies to leading automotive manufacturers like Daimler Benz, General Motors, Ford and Volvo amongst others. Lemmerz is now a part of Hayes, U.S.A., who are the world’s largest manufacturers of Automotive Wheel Rims.
KLL manufacturers wheel rims using the flat stock, cold pressing and flow forming method pioneered by the Lemmerz Group. This process gives Kalyani Lemmerz a competitive edge over other wheel rim manufacturers. |
