R&D

Design Engineering

AUTOLEK has a very modern design and testing centre equipped with design/ drafting software like CREO and Autocad, predictive analysis software like ANSYS amongst others. This enables the company to significantly cut down the development time and cost. Our high-end products that live upto International standards are what they are because of our strong engineering and Government of India approved R&D infrastructure One of our forte is the ability to perform in-house comprehensive analysis, through research, and develop new technologies through a dedicated and highly motivated team of engineers and researchers.

For problem solving and continuous improvements, AUTOLEK uses design of experiments (DOE) and various other statistical techniques. The overall quality level has improved from 2,000 PPM to 200 PPM and AIL is now working towards achieving single digit PPM.

Research & Development

R&D involves understanding and extending functions of knowledge for increasing value of products / systems / processes / validation. The commercialization of R&D activities helps in offering to our customers’ world class products at best prices in shortest time.
The R&D Centre is supported by:
  • State-of-the art Design Office.
  • Centre for metallurgical and chemical analysis.
  • Centre for metrological checking.
  • An R&D prototype center with library of product samples of domestic competitors and world-class manufacturers for bench marking.
  • Validation and product evaluation center for evaluation of performance, reliability and environmental response.
  • Modern machine building facility capable of designing and manufacturing SPMs for welding, varnishing, winding, slot insulation, hair pin forming and computerized testing machines.

AIL is the first company to indigenously design and develop a large range of Gear Reduction Starter Motors both Off-centre and Planetary Gear types. These Motors have hugely improved Power and Torque to weight ratio resulting in reduced material cost and size. The Company has also developed capability to design and manufacture Permanent Magnet Motors. It is also the first company to indigenously design and develop compact Internal fan Alternators

Tool Room

An advanced in-house tool room supports the company in achieving critical production requirements. The tool room has latest equipments for manufacturing of SPM’s, jigs and fixtures as per the product requirements.
