Mobility Sector

Industry Focus & Challenges

The Automotive industry demands zero-defect quality, extreme cost efficiency(driven by high volume), and components that can withstand high operating temperatures, fatigue, and vibration. The shift to electric vehicles (EVs) also requires lightweighting for better battery efficiency.

Key Processes Utilized

  • Die Casting (HPDC): Essential for engine blocks, transmission housings, and lightweight structural components (e.g., EV battery trays) due to high production speed and accuracy.
  • Cold & Closed Die Forging: Used for high-stress safety-critical parts like steering knuckles, connecting rods, and high-strength fasteners.
  • Gear Hobbing & Grinding: Critical for transmission gears, ensuring low noise, high power density, and extended lifespan.
  • CNC Machining: Employed for critical engine and transmission interface surfaces after casting or forging.
  • Industrial Scale Engineering: Applied to optimize production flow for massmarket parts, ensuring consistency and cost control.

Typical Components

  • Engine and Transmission Housings
  • Suspension and Steering Knuckles
  • Lightweight Chassis Parts
  • Gears, Shafts, and Splines
  • Brake System Components
