Automotive Supplier Strengthens Traceability with Cleco Connected Tools

5 minute(s) to read

For leading automotive supplier, Ground Effects®, growing requirements from global OEMs around process data and digital traceability meant standard clutch tools could no longer keep up. As expectations rose for more connected, quality-driven production, the team needed a solutions partner that would reliably link fastening data to its assembly systems without adding complexity or slowing down lines.

Cleco delivered Ground Effects a tailored solution that combined CellClutch cordless tools, a unified battery system, and advanced mPro controllers—giving the team clearer visibility into torque data and process quality, all while keeping floor operations straightforward and intuitive. This approach provided the robust process control needed to satisfy global OEM requirements without adding new complexity.

The benefits extended beyond process data alone. Operators quickly adapted to the new tools, noting smoother workflows and reduced maintenance compared to legacy setups. With three Michigan facilities already running on Cleco and plans underway to transition more sites, the manufacturer is now shaping a connected, data-driven model that meets today’s demands and stays flexible for what comes next.

As additional sites prepare to come online, the impact is clear: better data, smoother processes, and a smarter way to stay aligned with evolving customer demands.
