Product Design
With over four decades of chassis manufacturing expertise, ALF extends its capabilities into dedicated automotive product design. Merging product and process engineering, ALF partners with OEMs to bring real-world manufacturing intelligence to every engineering decision.
Start Your ProjectALF Engineering’s Product Engineering Division is built to support OEMs across the complete lifecycle of chassis, suspension, and structural system development. Backed by over four decades of manufacturing expertise, ALF combines practical engineering knowledge with modern 3D CAD design and CAE simulation capabilities to deliver optimized, production-ready solutions.
With a strong foundation in process understanding, consistent quality, and frugal engineering, ALF enables faster vehicle development cycles, cost-efficient designs, and a seamless transition from initial concept to full-scale manufacturing.
From Concept to Production
A proven end-to-end chassis engineering approach ensuring performance, manufacturability, and faster time to market.
STEP 1
Defining architecture and design direction.
Analyse target structural performance through Structural CAE Analysis.
Freeze engineering targets and finalise concept direction.
Develop conceptual 3D CAD Models based on packaging and vehicle data.
STEP 2
Detailed CAD design, simulation, and validation.
3D CAD Development and GD&T (Geometric Dimensioning & Tolerancing) definition.
Design Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (DFMEA).
Design Verification Plan & Report (DVP&R) execution.
STEP 3
Ensuring manufacturability, tool feasibility, and cost efficiency.
Process flow design and stamping/forming feasibility validation.
Process Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (PFMEA).
Design for Manufacturability (DFM) and overall cost optimisation.
STEP 4
Prototype. Test. Validate. Launch.
Prototype manufacturing and fixture development.
Physical structural testing and durability validation.
Production Part Approval Process (PPAP) submission for series launch.
Analyse target structural performance through Structural CAE Analysis.
