Whirlaway Corporation - Success Stories

Phase 2 - Redesign
Evolving product improvements spawned the second generation Pump. Whirlaway prototyped these changes in the year prior to production, incorporating lessons learned from the then current pump to achieve a 25% price reduction. The changeover was executed at model year, on time and within budget. This changeover to the improved configuration coincided with the customer’s move of all their assembly operations to Mexico. Whirlaway supported this transition seamlessly.

As a further improvement to the new pump, the customer’s Engineering and Whirlaway jointly developed a valve seat configuration and processing (the customer retains design ownership) which significantly reduced pump NVH (Noise Vibration and Harshness) – a requirement to remain competitive in the ABS market.
