• The Hub Drive Division is the largest manufacturer of Speedo hub drives in India and these Hub drives are used in mopeds, scooterettes and motorcycles.

• A market share of over 90% in Hub drives speaks volumes about the quality of the product and value offered to the customer.

• Speedo Hub Drives perform the vital function of transmitting the front wheel rotation of a two-wheeler to the speedometer. Reliability and Field Performance are critical in this product. The design of the product ensures very large MTBF.

• The Hub Drive Division has a unique modular production system. Assembly stations are so designed that one person puts together the entire assembly, thereby eliminating handling damages and other wasteful activities.

• Mistake - proofing is implemented at all possible stages to ensure that a defective component does not go the next process. The components are assembled, inspected and packed by the same person. This ensures process ownership and better product quality.

• The Flow Production System is implemented methodically using the principles of cell engineering, facilitating flow of material from one operation to another with ease. This enables faster feedback to the subsequent and the previous processes and improves productivity substantially. Each operator is a process owner. The operators themselves do the process setup, manufacturing and inspection of all components.

Most mopeds on Indian roads today carry a hub drive manufactured by Essae.

The Hub Drive Division is certified for ISO/TS16949
