Amsted Automotive Group’s MVT unit produces first powertrain components

Amsted Automotive Group’s MVT business unit has produced the first metal formed products manufactured under the MVT joint venture.

MVT produced five clutch carriers for a new nine-speed automatic transmission for a customer with premium off-road vehicles built for the Chinese market. Among the technology used to produce the clutch were stamping preform, cold forming, finish stamping in transfer press, and machining of tight-tolerance features on parts.

The joint venture unites Transform Products, a Means Industries business unit, with VT Industrial Technology. The formation of MVT in 2021 expanded Amsted Automotive's global presence to include the Chinese automotive market.
