AUT-TECH-AMS Expertise

Simultaneous Engineering

Simultaneous Engineering is often used for project based interface coordination and parallelization of all product and production processes, from product idea to market launch. Especially in the development of new products simultaneous Engineering can achieve the greatest benefits. he goal of simultaneous Engineering (SE) is primarily significantly shorter development times and faster market entry given ever shorter product life cycles. We work on SE projects in house as well in cooperation with our customers on site.

Processing

We develop production processes for manufacturing the products. We work on cycle time, Line balancing to achieve the required production output as defined by the OEMs.

Design

We design the following for BIW weld lines of automotive.

  • Pre-Production Tooling
  • Production Tooling
  • Checking Fixture Tooling

Some of the tools include Material Handling End effectors, Load Fixtures, Geometry Fixtures, Respot Fixtures, Passing Tables, Racks, Trunnion Fixtures, Ped Welders, Gun Stands, Glue Stands, Gripper Stands, Stud & Nut Welders, Grippers, Assembly Fixtures, Roller Hemming Fixtures, Hand Tools, Checking Fixtures, Framing Station Fixtures, Conveyor Pallets, Part Hangers, Curing Tools, Pulloff Carts, Laser Application Fixtures, Piercing Units & Manual Hoists

The various application includes Spot Welding, Arc Welding, Laser Welding, Stud/Nut Welding, Roller Hemming, Gluing, Material Handling, Machine Tending, Press Automation, Curing, Clinching and Measuring.

We have expertise in design tools including Catia V5, UG NX, FIDES, Mechanical Desktop, ProE/CREO, Solidworks & Inventor.

We have expertise in Layout tools including Autocad, Factory Cad & Microstation.

All our engineers are well trained and well versed in Add ons and macros including GM KBTD, Validat, Carisma, Daimler Addons, SLE, Heidelberg Quality Manager(HQR), Q-Checker, FM-Stueli, Microstation Faplis, STDS( GM Specific), SDP/MMC, KVS/KSL, Ergoweb & Dikab.
