Automotive & Auto Components

We provides industrial project execution solutions for the automotive and auto-component industry, supporting manufacturers with Greenfield plant setup, Brownfield expansion, factory relocation, machine relocation, production-line shifting and manufacturing facility modernization. Automotive facilities often contain interconnected machining, welding, assembly, inspection, material-handling and automation systems, making equipment movement and installation highly dependent on sequencing and layout accuracy. Our project scope can include dismantling, rigging coordination, transportation, positioning, installation, alignment, utility connection and commissioning of CNC machines, VMCs, HMCs, turning centres, grinding machines, press machines, robotic cells, welding systems, conveyors, assembly equipment and related production assets. For new plants, we can support equipment installation according to approved layouts and project requirements; for Brownfield projects, activities can be coordinated around existing machinery, production constraints and shutdown windows. Whether the requirement is relocation of an individual machine, transfer of a complete production line or expansion of an existing automotive plant, our approach is based on equipment characteristics, access conditions, installation requirements and the client's project schedule.
