Schaeffler REPXPERT popular online<br />

‘Tea-break Training’ returns in March<br />

Yet again emphasising the depth and diversity of the sectorleading<br />

training it offers the independent aftermarket,<br />

the Schaeffler REPXPERT team will be back in front of the<br />

cameras to deliver its latest Zoom-based ‘Tea-break Training’<br />

over two sessions on Wednesday 1st March 2023 at 12:30 and<br />

18:30.<br />

<strong>The</strong> familiar faces of Simon Cooper and Alistair Mason will<br />

be joined by other members of the REPXPERT team to bring<br />

their combined knowledge and expertise to information<br />

hungry technicians, this time focusing on the subject of ‘Future<br />

Technology’ and the opportunities it presents to forward looking<br />

independent workshops.<br />

“<strong>The</strong> mission of Schaeffler’s REPXPERT programme is to<br />

empower independent aftermarket professionals,” said<br />

Schaeffler Technical Manager, Alistair Mason, “which includes<br />

informing them about future products, systems and technologies<br />

that are poised to enter independent workshops in the next few<br />

years.<br />

“Technologies such as hybridisation and electrification are<br />

really in the spotlight at the moment, so it’s important for us<br />

to demonstrate the central role that Schaeffler is playing in<br />

these developments. As the work we are doing with vehicle<br />

manufacturers at original equipment level filters down to the<br />

aftermarket, it will impact the guys servicing and repairing<br />

vehicles fitted with what we are currently calling ‘future<br />

technology’, but for us it has been years in the making.”<br />

Another topic covered in the sessions will be Schaeffler’s<br />

OneCode label system, which features a unique QR code on<br />

the packaging of all future Schaeffler products that enables<br />

technicians to get direct access to important technical<br />

information from their smartphone.<br />

“One simple scan of the OneCode provides instant digital<br />

access to all the usual REPXPERT product and technical<br />

information, including detailed installation instructions and<br />

specifications, whilst instantly collecting REPXPERT bonus points<br />

for members to redeem against workshop clothing, tools and<br />

consumables in the bonus shop,’ Mason continued.<br />

“<strong>The</strong> scan also checks the authenticity of the product,<br />

providing an additional security measure for both parts suppliers<br />

and workshops, another important tool for us to highlight during<br />

the training session.”<br />
