Is Your Supply Chain Holding You Back?
Juggling multiple vendors or trying to build production capabilities from scratch gets expensive fast. These are the problems we hear about most.
Too Many Vendors
Three suppliers for one part means three schedules to manage, three quality standards to reconcile, and three points where something can go wrong. It adds up.
Rising Production Costs
Buying your own presses, lasers, and welding equipment means millions in capital before you stamp a single part. And that equipment sits idle when orders slow down.
Quality Inconsistencies
When stamping happens at one shop and welding at another, nobody owns the whole process. Defects slip through the gaps, and rework eats your margins.
One Partner. Every Process. Total Accountability.
Contract manufacturing with AMG puts your entire production supply chain under one roof. No more coordinating between a stamping shop, a cutting vendor, a welding house, and an assembly facility. You get a single partner who's accountable for the finished product.
Our 75,000 square foot facility houses 20 stamping presses ranging from 18 to 300 tons, Mitsubishi 2D flat bed laser cutting cells with 4,000W fiber optic technology, robotic and manual welding stations with AWS-certified welders, and full assembly capabilities.
We're ISO 9001:2015 certified, and we take that seriously. Our 50+ skilled employees deliver 98%+ on-time delivery rates. We've been doing this for over 120 years, serving Fortune 500 companies who can't afford to take chances on quality.
Need 100 prototypes? We can do that. Need 100,000 production parts? Same team, same facility, same tight tolerances.
What Is Contract Manufacturing?
Contract manufacturing is when you hire a third-party manufacturer to produce parts or products for you. Instead of buying your own presses, lasers, and welding equipment, you partner with a shop that already has all of it, plus the certifications and trained people to run everything.
You bring the designs, specs, and quality requirements. Your contract manufacturing partner handles everything else: sourcing materials, building tooling, running production, inspecting parts, and shipping. You keep full control of your product design and IP. The manufacturer provides the production muscle.
How it's different from OEM manufacturing: An OEM designs, builds, and sells products under their own brand. A contract manufacturer builds components to the OEM's specifications. Most OEMs use contract manufacturers for specialized processes they don't run in-house.
How it's different from outsourcing: Outsourcing covers any business function you hand off, from IT to accounting. Contract manufacturing is specifically about production. You're working with a facility that has the specialized equipment and skilled workforce to make your parts.
Contract Manufacturing Capabilities at AMG
Metal Stamping
We run 20 stamping presses from 18 to 300 tons, with a gauge range from 0.010" to 0.250". Progressive, compound, draw, flange, and trim dies. Whether it's high-volume progressive die stampings or complex deep-drawn parts, stamping is the foundation of what we do.
View Metal Stamping Capabilities →Laser Cutting
Mitsubishi 2D flat bed laser cells with 4,000W fiber optic technology. They'll cut materials up to 6.35mm thick with clean, precise edges. Great for complex shapes, prototype runs, and production jobs where you want to skip tooling costs.
View Laser Cutting Capabilities →Welding
Our AWS-certified welders handle SMAW, GMAW/MIG, GTAW/TIG, and FCAW. We also run robotic welding cells for high-volume work. Thin-gauge stainless TIG welds, heavy structural MIG welds, whatever the joint calls for, our team gets it right.
View Welding Capabilities →Fabrication
Our 400-ton Baykal press brake handles the heavy bending and forming work. We also do surface grinding, deburring, and finishing. Raw cut or stamped parts go in, production-ready components come out.
View Fabrication Capabilities →
Assembly
We handle sub-assembly and final assembly with clinching machines, rivnut tools, torque testers, calipers, and vision systems. Our specialty is clinch nuts and rivnuts into aluminum extrusions. Every connection gets tested and inspected before it leaves our floor.
View Assembly Capabilities →QA & Engineering
CMMs, 3D laser scanning, material testing, dimensional verification. If it needs measuring, we measure it. Our engineering team also does DFM analysis before production starts so we catch problems on paper, not on the shop floor.

Reduce Costs
Skip the capital investment in presses, lasers, welding rigs, and facility overhead. With contract manufacturing, your production costs scale with actual volume. When orders slow down, your overhead doesn't keep running.
Scale Up or Down
Need to double output next quarter? Done. Need to pull back during a slow season? No problem. Your contract manufacturer absorbs the swings so you don't carry idle equipment and extra headcount.
Skilled People, Day One
AMG's AWS-certified welders, experienced press operators, and quality engineers have been doing this for years. You get that expertise on your first order without recruiting or training a single person.
Free Up Your Team
Let your engineers focus on product design. Let your sales team sell. When production is handled by a contract manufacturer, your people spend time on what actually grows the business.
Get to Market Faster
Building production capabilities from scratch takes months of equipment procurement, installation, and process validation. A contract manufacturer already has all of that running. You skip straight to making parts.
Built-In Quality Control
ISO 9001:2015 certified processes, CMM inspection, 3D laser scanning, documented procedures. When every process runs under one roof with one quality system, nothing falls through the cracks between vendors.
Industries That Rely on Contract Manufacturing
Automotive
This is our home turf. Precision metal stampings, exhaust system components, welded sub-assemblies, and brackets for OEMs who demand tight tolerances and zero excuses. We've been making parts for the auto industry since before most of our competitors existed.
Automotive Manufacturing →Agriculture
Farm equipment gets dragged through dirt, baked in the sun, and slammed against rocks. The parts have to be tough. We fabricate heavy-gauge frames, mounting brackets, and corrosion-resistant assemblies that hold up season after season.
Agriculture Manufacturing →Heavy Truck
Components for vehicles hauling tens of thousands of pounds can't have weak spots. Heavy-duty brackets, frame components, welded assemblies, exhaust parts for diesel engines. Everything built for extreme loads and long service life.
Heavy Truck Manufacturing →How to Choose a Contract Manufacturing Partner
Pick the wrong contract manufacturer and you'll deal with missed deadlines, rejected parts, and cost overruns that ripple through your whole operation. Here's what to look for:
- • Equipment match: Can they actually run your processes? Check tonnage ranges, material capabilities, and certifications. Don't take their word for it.
- • Quality certifications: ISO 9001:2015 is the minimum. AWS welding certifications matter too. If they don't have the paperwork, move on.
- • Track record: AMG has been in business since 1904 and works with Fortune 500 companies. Ask any potential partner for references and examples of similar work.
- • Communication: If they're slow to respond during the quoting process, it won't get better after they have your money. Look for a dedicated contact and real engineering support.
- • Supply chain strength: How do they source materials? Do they have backup suppliers? A disruption in their supply chain becomes a disruption in yours.
- • Compliance: Make sure they can handle RoHS, REACH, Prop 65, and Conflict Minerals if your industry requires it.
