AAM is a leader in metal-form production for axle and driveline components, transmission components, power transfer unit / transfer case components, chassis and steering components, wheel hubs and spindles – from high volume applications to micro-alloyed parts, machined and assembly-ready for critical applications.
AAM process technology helps engineer-in mass-optimization, improved part performance and efficiency. Our engineering staff makes extensive use of finite element simulation of the metal for process to shorten lead time and optimize product quality.
AAM is the largest independent producer of forgings in North America, purchasing approximately 300,000 tons of SBQ steel per year, and producing 375,000 forgings per day on average.
AAM Metal Formed Process Technology
AAM transfer cases can be designed to fit any current application, or developed to suit a vehicle’s unique requirements. AAM supports the electronic control modules (ECM’s) development and designs with in-house expertise. They are available with:
Features & Benefits:
Single-speed and two-speed
Full-time and part-time
Active and passive systems
