We Help OEMs and Suppliers Unlock Lightweight Aluminium Capacity, Engineer Components, Win Business and Fix Supply Chain Gaps

As vehicle programmes demand mass reduction, the shift from steel and iron to aluminium is accelerating across structural, chassis, and powertrain components. AMDS provides the engineering depth to make that transition work — for suppliers building capability and OEMs securing supply.

We work across the full range of aluminium forming processes:

• Vacuum-Assisted HPDC
• Conventional HPDC
• Permanent Mould
• Sand Casting
• Disamatic
• Hot Closed Die Forging
• Extrusion
• Stamping

For Suppliers

We position your capability, open doors to OEM programmes, and manage the engineering and commercial process through to SOP.

• Business development strategy and OEM targeting
• Technical documentation and PPAP readiness
• First-article through series production support
• Asia-to-EU market entry as a specialism — Korea, India, Taiwan, Japan, ASEAN

For OEMs

We find, qualify, and embed aluminium component suppliers into your programmes. You get vetted capability, not a catalogue of names.

• Supplier identification and technical audit
• Capability matching to programme requirements
• Commercial negotiation and contract support
• Ongoing supplier performance management
• Interface between your nominated or potential new suppliers — managing their development into serial production

When programmes go wrong — quality escapes, delivery failures, supplier relationship breakdowns — we go in and fix them. Not as auditors. As engineers who stay until the line is running again.

• Root cause analysis and containment at the supplier facility
• Recovery planning with clear milestones and accountability
• Direct interface management between supplier and OEM teams
• Embedded on-site presence through to verified resolution
