Dangote gives fresh air to anammco, Shacman Trucks

TSS in partnership with ANAMMCO, received a huge boost from the Dangote Group.

The multinational industrial conglomerate recently placed a fresh order for Shacman heavy duty vehicles which are being assembled at the plant.

Clearly the biggest and most consistent buyer of Shacman trucks, particularly the tractor units, Dangote Group has since the plant re-opened five years ago after a period of skeletal operations, taken delivery of no fewer than 1,500 units of various models of the brand.

Shacman is widely regarded in China as the best in heavy duty vehicles, and the products are being assembled by the Enugu plant for TSS the brand’s representative in Nigeria, on contract basis.

In the latest purchase, the group placed an order for about 650 trucks; the production of which has raised the tempo of activities in ANAMMCO as plant workers and local input suppliers strive to meet deadlines.

TSS and ANAMMCO managements believe that the current patronage will guarantee that the factory will continue to bustle with production which has been sustained since the assembly of Shacman commenced early in 2015 with an official roll-out ceremony at the plant.

The Role of a Catalytic Converter in Your Car and the Effects of a Bad One

When it comes to your car’s exhaust system, the catalytic converter (often called the "catalyst") plays a crucial role in reducing harmful emissions. However, when it fails, it can lead to performance issues and even legal problems. In this blog post, we’ll explore **how a catalytic converter works** and **what happens when it goes bad**.   What Does a Catalytic Converter Do? The catalytic converter is an essential part of your car’s exhaust system. Its main job is to **convert harmful pollutants into less harmful gases** before they exit the tailpipe. Here’s how it works:   1. Reduces Harmful Emissions The catalyst contains precious metals like platinum, palladium, and rhodium,which facilitate chemical reactions that break down pollutants:   - Carbon monoxide (CO)→ Converted into carbon dioxide (CO₂) - Hydrocarbons (HC)→ Converted into water (H₂O) and CO₂  - Nitrogen oxides (NOx) → Broken down into nitrogen (N₂) and oxygen (O₂)* 2. Helps M...

VEHICLE MAINTENANCE ALERT!

------ AUTOMOBILE 101 ------ >>> MAINTENANCE ALARM <<< i just serviced my car but this alarm is still there, what do i do? I've treated this topic so many times but same question keep coming.  To make this simple, this alarm.is to notify you that your engine is due for oil change. But bear in mind the ECU of your car is not intelligent like human brain to know you just changed oil. This is OIL LIFE that work with mileage counter working hand in hand with your odometer and once the vehicle have covered some kilometers/miles the alarm pops up to imform you that the vehicle now need oil change since it have covered the required distance. This duration is dependent on the car make and the manufacturer. Vehicles like German machines have longer counts while vehicles like Japanese have shorter count. Each time you do an oil change always reset this oil life to start counting down again from 100% once it gets down to 10% or 20% this alarm pops up. So each tim...

Timing Belt vs. Timing Chain: Understanding the Difference and Knowing When to Replace

When it comes to your car’s engine, the timing system plays a crucial role in ensuring smooth operation. Two common types of timing mechanisms are the timing belt and the timing chain. While both serve the same fundamental purpose of synchronizing the rotation of the crankshaft and camshaft, they differ in material, durability, and maintenance requirements.   In this blog post, we’ll explore the differences between timing belts and timing chains, their pros and cons, and when you should consider replacing them to avoid costly engine damage.   Timing Belt vs. Timing Chain: Key Differences 1. Timing Belt - Material: Made of reinforced rubber with high-tensile fibers (like fiberglass or Kevlar).   - Operation: Runs quietly and smoothly.   - Maintenance: Requires periodic replacement (typically every 60,000 to 100,000 miles, depending on the manufacturer).   - Cost: Generally cheaper to replace than a timing chain but must be changed proacti...
