FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE PDF download of this Success Story Iowa Engineered Processes Success Story: Allison Transmissions Allison Transmissions is one of the world’s leaders in the design, manufacture and sales of automatic transmissions for trucks, buses, off-road and military vehicles. They are in this position because of their willingness to aggressively pursue innovation in the development of new concepts and to progressively address manufacturing issues. The Problem: Allison recognized they had a problem with the cleaning and deburring of transmission control valve housings. Allison was using a multi-staged method for cleaning and deburring parts. Their process consisted of washing and blowout, burnish, burr, and yet another wash and blowout. After this process was completed, there was a 100% part inspection for burrs, dirt and shavings. “Countless hours were spent reclaiming discrepant material.” The Cascade Solution: Since 1991, Allison Transmissions has been using the Iowa Engineered Processes’, Cascade System to clean and debur transmission control valve housings. Allison now has a 98% “Good As Is” ratio with remaining 2% requiring only “1 rework.” Allison’s own data, as illustrated in the graphs below, relates the overwhelming positive impact of the Cascade System.
