In the world of manufacturing, operational excellence isn’t possible without the right people – and at AWP, the right people are in place.

3. State-of-the-Art Technology for Precision Manufacturing

One of the core pillars of AWP’s operational strategy is our investment in cutting-edge technology. We’ve spent millions on advanced equipment, such as CNC coiling machines, stress-relieving systems, grinders, presetters, and inspection tools. These systems enable AWP to maintain 100% repeatability in production, guaranteeing high-precision results in every production run. Investing in the best available technology reduces errors, enhances productivity, and maintains consistent quality at every stage of production.

4. Proven Systems Built Over Decades

AWP has spent more than 27 years developing and refining our operational systems to optimize the production of ground compression springs. These systems are constantly fine-tuned so that each process is lean, efficient, and tailored to produce the best results. Our ISO 9001:2015-certified quality management system further guarantees that every spring meets strict quality requirements. With refined processes in place, we can consistently deliver high-quality products with 100% on-time performance and zero defects.

5. Focused Expertise in Ground Compression Springs

AWP has honed our expertise by dedicating our entire operation to ground compression springs for the fluid power industry. This singular focus allows us to specialize and continuously improve in this niche. A deep understanding of the specific requirements of industries such as agriculture, construction, and heavy machinery ensures that we meet the exacting standards required for our springs to perform reliably in the field. This specialization allows us to deliver consistently high-quality products that meet customers’ unique needs.

Results That Speak for Themselves

The 45 months of defect-free shipments speak to AWP’s dedication to operational excellence. We produce over 20 million ground compression springs annually and have a proven track record of consistently meeting customer demands. From delivering prototypes in 10 days to maintaining 100% on-time delivery, our approach is built on a foundation of excellence at every level.

Enhancing Efficiency and Meeting Future Challenges

Automation plays a critical role in driving AWP’s operational efficiency. Integrating advanced technologies throughout the production process enables us to scale operations, reduce lead times, and increase output without sacrificing quality.
