In pole position - Otec confines friction to the racetrack
While engineers in the automotive industry are always looking for ways to optimise efficiency, smooth running and emission management, the focus in motorsport is on pushing performance to its limits.
As an international technology leader in mass finishing, OTEC designs and builds systems that reduce friction between components, benefiting both the premium car segment and motorsport. The heat, stresses and material abrasion caused by friction are detrimental to the precision and service life of all components. Lower friction means less wear, smoother power delivery and better energy consumption. The aim is always to minimise the influence of friction on the system as far as possible.
