Industries We Serve

Automotive & Transportation Manufacturing

Precision-machined, spun and fabricated components for vehicles, trailers, rail and fleet equipment, from prototype builds to repeat production runs.

Sector Overview

Built for Repeat Orders and Real-World Duty

Vehicle programs reward suppliers who deliver the same part, to the same standard, on schedule, order after order. Components here live with vibration, load, heat and road debris, so consistent dimensions, sound welds and dependable finishes count for more than a one-off showpiece.

The same shop covers a wide range of vehicle work, from road vehicles and trailers to buses, rail and off-road fleets, including development parts for new platforms and replacement or aftermarket components. HCI Advanced Manufacturing combines Accu-Tech, Hydra-Matic Machine & Pumps and Cyl-Tech Manufacturing, part of the Heritage Casting and Ironworks group, in business since 1978.

Prototype to Production

Start with a handful of development parts, then scale to repeat orders without changing supplier. Turning, milling, spinning, welding and assembly are coordinated in one place.

Manufacturing Capabilities

The Processes Behind These Parts

CNC & Swiss Turning

Repeatable turned parts, from small precision pins to larger shafts and hub components.

CNC Milling

Brackets, housings, trays and plates with machined features held to drawing tolerances.

CNC Metal Spinning

Caps, bowls, tips and other round hollow forms, practical for prototypes through production quantities.

Forming, Fabrication & Welding

Welded mounts, frames and brackets, and formed sheet-metal parts.

Hydraulic & Pump Components

Cylinder and pump parts, backed by Hydra-Matic's fluid-power experience.

Assembly & Component Integration

Sub-assemblies built and checked together so parts arrive ready to install.

Our Approach

How We Review a Vehicle or Transportation Project

01. Drawing & Volume Review

We check the drawing, material, tolerances and expected annual or per-release quantities.

02. Process & Cost Plan

We pick the process mix that fits the part and volume, and flag design tweaks that reduce cost.

03. Prototype & Approval

We build sample parts for your fit and function checks before committing to the run.

04. Production & Delivery

We agree on release schedules and delivery timing for repeat orders.
