Canada’s ADF Diesel Is the Reigning Top Team Engines Champion
of North America

Winning by a slim margin, the team with Jérôme Langlois and Sergio Cabral was invited to the heart of Scania in Sweden to see how its engines are produced.
“What really strikes me is how smoothly and flawlessly the production and logistics of manufacturing engines and trucks is organized at Scania,” says Mr. Cabral. “What also impressed me was how Scania really cares for its employees.”

ADF Diesel became a Scania dealer in 2012. The company has 7 locations in eastern Canada and the winning team gathered a technician from the Mississauga, Ontario, branch and the ADF Diesel Scania trainer from the head office in Saint-Stanislas, Quebec. “We’re a one-stop shop and will take on any type of engines and any brand,” declares Mr. Langlois.

Of the 24 teams that entered the competition, ADF Diesel was among the Top 6 that battled for victory in San Antonio, Texas. The competition was extremely close, but in the end the Canadian team proved its skills in engine technology and servicing and took home the prize. In May, they travelled to the Swedish capital for a week of sightseeing and the visit to Scania, located near Stockholm.

ADF Diesel mainly remanufactures and services engines of all makes and models from 100 to 2,500 hp and is the largest distributor of turbochargers in its territory. ADF Diesel now sells in more than 10 countries and is very present in the northern Canadian territory were mining companies recognize their skills and expertise. After investing over $6 million in the last 2 years to increase their productivity and quality control, they are about to launch a $10 million project at their head office that will double their remanufacturing capacity.
