History and current activities     

    APQ is a young family business founded on September 20, 2016 in Qeshm Island, Iran. The founders of the company are seasoned technical engineers with over 20 years of experience in engineering, design, procurement, manufacturing and commissioning of automotive projects.

     APQ aims to establish itself in the international market as a reliable actor for carrying out automotive projects. In our projects, a team of professional experts work closely with the clients to identify their needs. After conducting expert analyses, we begin the initial design, planning and organizing procedures.

   As a relatively new player in the industry, our company has expanded its scope through partnerships with a number of European companies to develop new products, such as Roller Hemming and Electrified Monorail Systems (EMS).

     Together with our partners we have focused on the following four areas of the automotive industry:

  • New Product development 
  • Automotive
  • Material Handling systems
  • Robotic
  • Automation

   

New Product design and development   

     Product design is one of the practices that the human mind uses to solve users' problems or address specific needs in a given market. The role of product designers is to combine art, science and technology with the aim of creating products that people can use. Today, the advent of digital tools today has enabled designers to communicate, visualize, analyze, and manufacture products in extraordinary ways that were previously thought to be more like a dream than a reality. At present, it can be said that software development has caused a dramatic change in the methods of designing and engineering new products. Product design and engineering is one of the key factors that has dramatically enhanced human life. 

     One of the most attractive and interesting activities in APQ is designing and developing new products. Therefore, we recommend that you refer to the menu of designing and developing new products for more information in this field. 

Automotive-Body in white

     To create the assembly line of the body of each car according to customer needs, it is necessary to perform many activities in the fields of engineering, design, construction, trade, installation and commissioning. The main activities mentioned above can be categorized in the following areas:

  • Codification and planning of processes required for car body assembly
  • Jigs and fixtures
  • Welding, sealing and fastening systems
  • Transportation systems
  • Hemming operations
  • Robotic systems (welding, sealing, transfer, etc.)
  • Automation
  • Quality control

     APQ engineers with more than 20 years of experience in design and development of car body assembly lines, as a project manager have managed large BIW EPC Projects, therefore now we are able to give this assurance to our customers and announce that APQ services completely cover all engineering, manufacturing, supply, installation and commissioning affairs required for BIW assembly projects.      

    

Material Handling systems

      Today's industry seeks to produce with high efficiency, better use of time, better and faster transfer of materials with fewer workers for greater profitability. One of the main requirements of these goals is the use of advanced and automatic machines. Here are some reasons why OEMs should implement correct material handling processes in their production lines.

     APQ is a knowledge-based company, relying on the experience of its experts and business partners in the field of designing, manufacturing and supplying transportation systems tailored to the needs of its customers, and has carried out many fundamental activities and research projects. The focus and expertise of APQ and its business partners is in the area of the following transmission systems.

  • Electrified Monorail systems
  • Power Roller Bed Conveyors
  • Lift and Shift shuttle
  • Overhead shuttles
  • Drop lifters
  • Turing Arms

 

 

Robotic systems

     In the past 20 years the development of digital technologies, new methods and new technologies in the world as well as their implementation in production, urged the companies worldwide to constantly monitor these developments and conduct modernization and automation of their production processes in order to stay competitive. Industrial robots can complete certain tasks faster and more efficiently than humans as they are designed and built to perform them with higher accuracy. This combined with the fact they are used to automate processes which previously might have taken significantly more time and resource results in the use of industrial robots to increase the efficiency of production lines.

Currently, APQ has focused its main activity in the field of robotics in the following specialized fields:

  • Robotic simulation
  • Grippers
  • Installation, Commsioning and robot programming

     In other words it can be said that APQ  works in the field of application of robots in industries, and can help its customers in related fields.

     

 

Automation

     One of the most important fields of َAPQ Activities,  is industrial automation and perhaps the most interested specialists of this company work in this field.

Industrial automation can be defined as the use of automated technologies and automated control devices that lead to the automatic operation and control of industrial processes without significant human intervention and achieve superior performance over manual control. These automation devices include PLC, PC, PAC, etc., and technologies include a variety of industrial communication systems.

     During the years of activity, APQ Company has chosen the following as the main field of activity in the industrial automation branch and is always developing them:

  • Engineering
  • Virtual commissioning
  • Implementation   

 

     In the end, it is noted that for more information about the services of this company in any of the above fields, you can refer to the services menu and get more complete information, and if there are any questions, we are ready to answer you.
