For automotive OEM’s and their Tier 1 sub-suppliers we offer a wide-ranging supply program - our product portfolio includes standard, engineered and customer-specific parts: turned parts, extruded parts, stampings, forging and milled components of all materials with all kinds of surface and heat treatment. Because of the huge variety of engineered and customer-specific parts, we focus on compehensive technical consultation with customers to discuss their needs in-depth. Whether passenger, long-haul, construction site, or distribution transportation, we offer the right component solutions for the passenger car, van, light-duty, medium-duty and heave-duty truck segment.
We are actively involved in the automotive industry’s change towards electrification of mobility and the challenges that come along with like reducing overall vehicle weight, while fulfilling highest quality and safety requirements. Supported by our experienced team of senior quality engineers with long-term experience in the automotive industry, we carefully prepare the development of new components with extensive process capability analysis at the chosen suppliers facility, initial sample documentation and complete testing on the most modern equipment and methods. We carry out price comparisons on a world market basis in the framework of an audited supplier pool to maximize customer value while guaranteeing highest quality standards are adhered.
QUALITY CONTROL MANAGEMENT
Mellon Technology provides customized quality assurance, continuous batch tracing, product liability insurance and recall insurance. First sample test reports are generated according to VDA or QS 9000. Our people have extensive experience, competence and knowhow in supplying the automotive industry with drawing parts for large batch production. We offer efficient pricing for batch production through global purchasing at top quality, guaranteeed not just through a multi-certified quality managment system, but also with our quality engineers regularly visiting our suppliers. We are very pro-actively involved in process capabilitity tests, process development and improvement measures, monitoring batch production at the producer sites to ensure our delivered goods completely satisfy our customers.
LIGHT WEIGHT SOLUTIONS
Greater cost-effectiveness, lower emissions with the same or improved output - are the main objective when it comes to implementing state-of-the-art vehicles. The automotive industry is moving at a fast pace towards electric motor solutions, however with major obstacles in front like the heavy weight of electric batteries. New electric designs need to keep pace with growing competitive and cost pressures while meeting ever great customer expectations; they must be efficient, but not detract from driving pleasure and meet highest safety standards. Forging components of steel and aluminium stand out as the preferred choice to reduce weight while maintaining superior mechanical properties, safety, longevity and reliability over their casted counterparts.
METALS & COMMODITIES
We constantly source raw material and cooperate with metals and commodity producers to enlarge our supply chain solutions and best serve our clients needs. By forming strategic alliances with third party producers of metals we streamline and simplify supply chains. We have a great deal of expertise in processing material for further downstream activities, as well as competitive advantages in terms of the processing technologies that we use. This allows us to optimise our end products for a wider customer base and maximize value for customers.
RENEWABLE ENERGY
Liberalized energy markets are often fragmented or periodically volatile. As a result, price discrepancies often occur when there is an oversupply of wind and solar PV that can be bought cheaply on the market and the time periods when those inflexible generation units reduce supply due to weather constraints. We invest into renewable energy assets that allow us to generate, store and release energy to the market during those most valuable time periods. These pricing discrepancies offer us arbitrage opportunities based on our ability to supply flexible amounts of energy when most needed and yield above-market margins.
