China Changfeng to Build Engines with Equipment Bought from Ford and Visteon
26 March 2009
China Changfeng Motors Co. purchased a set of engine production lines from plants of Ford Motor and Visteon Corp. in Britain and shipped them back in 2008. It now plans to build its own engines with the equipment in China.
Changfeng says it bought an engine assembly line as well as a cylinder body and head production lines from Ford's Bridgend engine plant in Wales.
It also confirms the purchase of the crankshaft, camshaft and connecting rod production lines from Visteon's plant in Swansea, Wales in 2008. The Visteon plant used to supply Ford's Bridgend engine plant.
The company has built an engine plant with the equipment in Hunan, with an annual output capacity of 150,000 units of engines.
