Engineering-Driven Production Support
Integrated engineering and manufacturing support from technical definition and supplier coordination to prototype and repeat production.
Production should begin with a clear technical definition
Manufacturing problems often begin before the first part is produced. Incomplete drawings, undefined materials, unnecessary tolerances, incompatible processes, uncontrolled revisions and missing inspection criteria can create cost, delay and quality risks.
TLG SYSTEMS connects engineering requirements with suitable manufacturing processes and coordinates the technical activities required to move from concept or sample to a controlled physical component.
Production is an engineering process
Geometry, material, manufacturing method, inspection and assembly requirements must be considered as one complete technical system.
From initial technical input to delivered component
Support can cover an individual production activity or a coordinated package combining engineering, supplier management, manufacturing, finishing, assembly and inspection.
Technical Input Review
Review of drawings, 3D data, samples, materials, quantities and functional requirements.
Manufacturing Feasibility
Evaluation of geometry, tolerances, processes, assembly requirements and production risks.
Supplier Coordination
Technical communication and production follow-up with suitable manufacturing resources.
Prototype Production
Manufacturing support for first parts, functional prototypes, installation trials and design verification.
Production Coordination
Coordination of machining, sheet metal, welding, coating, assembly and required secondary processes.
Inspection and Delivery
Follow-up of agreed inspection requirements, finishing operations, documentation and delivery condition.
Multiple processes coordinated within one production package
Components and assemblies can require several manufacturing methods. The production route is defined according to technical requirements rather than a single available process.
CNC turning and milling
Laser cutting and sheet-metal fabrication
Bending and formed-component production
Welding and mechanical assembly
Prototype and pre-series component production
Powder coating and surface-finishing coordination
Heat treatment and application-specific secondary processes
Door-mechanism and mechanical subassembly production
Production support can begin from different starting points
From Technical Drawing
Manufacturing requirements are reviewed and the appropriate production route is defined.
From 3D CAD Data
Required production drawings, materials, tolerances and processes are prepared or reviewed.
From Physical Sample
The existing component is measured, technically defined and evaluated for reproduction.
From Engineering Requirement
A new component or assembly is developed according to the required function and installation.
Support for different sourcing and manufacturing situations
Production support can be structured according to the customer’s technical, capacity, sourcing or project-timing requirement.
Production information controlled throughout the project
Drawing and Revision Control
Production activities are linked to the agreed drawings, specifications and revision levels.
Material and Process Definition
Materials, treatments, coatings and required production processes are identified before manufacturing.
Critical Characteristic Review
Functional dimensions, interfaces and project-specific inspection points are identified.
Change Follow-Up
Design and manufacturing changes are linked to the applicable component and revision status.
From technical requirement to production delivery
Requirement Review
Product function, technical data, quantity, quality and delivery requirements are evaluated.
Production Planning
Manufacturing route, suppliers, processes and technical controls are defined.
Manufacturing Follow-Up
Production, secondary processes, assembly and technical open items are coordinated.
Inspection and Delivery
Agreed checks, finishing, documentation and delivery preparation are completed.

Production support for mobility and industrial projects
Manufacturing feasibility, supplier selection, available processes, tolerances, inspection scope, certification requirements, quantities and delivery conditions are evaluated separately for every project. Final requirements are confirmed through the agreed quotation, technical drawings and project documentation.
