Project
Management
All major projects within our plant are assigned a Project Manager, who oversees all aspects of production. Initial design, casting methodology, machining and fabrication phases are thoroughly checked and monitored to ensure full conformance to specification. Each Project Manager is the key point of communication with the customer.
Design
The design office at AGP comprises a team of highly qualified mechanical engineers with experience in a wide range of engineering disciplines. Supported by AGP’s own metallurgists and foundry methods engineers, our design team offers unique skills in product design, reverse engineering, product customisation and manufacturing optimisation.
The design office is supported by a range of computer software including:
-
Running ‘SolidWorks’ (latest release)
-
Running Bentley ‘MicroStation’, ‘MicroStation Modeller’ and ‘Power Draft’
-
Running ‘SolidCAM’
-
Running ‘Rhinoceros’
-
‘Nova Solid’ & ‘Nova Flow’ casting thermal analysis software
-
‘SolidCAM’ CNC Programming and computerised manufacture systems
Other tools to aid in the design process include:
-
Plan Printing, copying & scanning to AO size plus…
-
Over 100,000 Drawings and Designs dating back to 1868.
3D MODELLING & DRAWING
We offer a full Drafting and Modelling service by qualified engineers. Using SolidWorks™, Bentley MicroStation™ and Rhinoceros™, we can convert standard 2-D drawings to full 3-D models for use in our casting simulation and CAM software. We also have plan printing, copying and scanning facilities to AO size. Our drawing library contains over 100,000 drawings dating back to 1868.
REVERSE ENGINEERING
Our engineers are highly skilled in reverse engineering. In a world where equipment is quickly considered obsolete, replacement parts from OEMs often become impossible to source. A&G Price can replicate and often improve on OEM parts that are no longer available, and can offer cheaper or more customised options where patents are no longer in place.
Quality Assurance
A&G Price Ltd has developed and implemented a Quality Management System to demonstrate its ability to provide consistent components and services that meet customer and applicable regulatory requirements and to address customer satisfaction through the effective application of the system, including continual improvement and the prevention of nonconformity.
