AWP is a contract manufacturer, offering products made to customers' designs. While customers bear all the responsibility for designs and design modifications, our engineers are ready to assist.

Using the SMI Advanced Spring Design software, we review the spring design to assess manufacturability and the appropriateness of tolerances to optimize your spring design. Every day we talk with design and manufacturing engineers about ways to improve functionality and assembly of their springs. Contact us with your design challenges.

Success Stories

• Provided design assistance and samples to validate the elimination of ground ends and zinc plating on a high-volume spring. The approved change resulted in significant cost savings for the customer.
  
  
• Collaborated with a design firm and customer's engineer to create three unique spring designs for an innovative pump design. We continue to provide production quantities after successfully meeting prototype and PPAP requirements.
  
  
• Verified a customer's spring design and produced parts the same day after another supplier expressed uncertainty of manufacturability.

• Recommended a method to clarify tolerances on a series of springs. Today this method of tolerance is used on over a dozen similar production parts.
  
  
• Established an innovative spring end configuration that greatly improved the customer's assembly process and the functionality of the spring.
  
  
• Developed a relationship with a new customer by assisting in cross-referencing foreign material and spring specifications to produce springs domestically instead of overseas.
