Automotive

Why Total Metal Products?

TMP operate in partnership with a number of Tier 1 Automotive Body-in-White (BiW) and aftermarket component suppliers.

BiW Tier 1 Component Suppliers

The Automotive sector has a long heritage of innovation and the use of leading-edge engineering techniques and materials. TMP keeps pace with these developments and designs and builds machine tool systems which provide production solutions to meet these requirements.

TMP are agile, flexible and competitive, delivering sector leading solutions.

OEMs expect their BiW Tier 1 component suppliers to produce their products with a number of significant properties. Their comfort and safety system components must have high tensile strength as well as a high-level stiffness; providing good quality and safety to the car body and protection to its occupants. Other, non-safety critical products, are required to be manufactured / formed from lightweight materials. All of our solutions are designed to produce components which have a good surface finish which is smooth, and which does not compromise the materials corrosion resistance.

TMP has extensive knowledge and experience of producing stretch forming, stretch bending, roll forming and component punching / piercing manufacturing systems including full automation. Our welding and assembly jigs are also designed to work seamlessly within the Tier 1’s production process.
