The Challenges Faced by Our Clients

In an ever-changing and competitive environment, our clients — connector manufacturers, players in industrial mechanics, OEMs, equipment suppliers, and integrators of high-precision mechanical components across all industrial sectors — face major challenges:

  • technical uncertainties,
  • economic constraints,
  • tight deadlines,
  • and the need for rapid industrialisation.

These issues lead them to seek partners capable of transforming an idea or prototype into a reliable, competitive, and industrializable solution.

With this objective in mind, AMD Décolletage — a specialist in high-precision turning since 1978 and located in the heart of the Alps — offers structured support through 5 key steps, from feasibility analysis to mass production, providing concrete answers to our customers’ challenges:

Engagements - AMD DécolletageTechnical feasibility: miniaturisation, tight tolerances, complex geometries

Engagements - AMD DécolletageWide range of materials: steel, stainless steel, aluminium, brass, copper…

Engagements - AMD DécolletageCost optimisation: material selection, manufacturing processes, automation

Engagements - AMD DécolletageOn-time delivery: rapid ramp-up, flexible production resources
