The backbone of AMD's competitive advantage is the collaborative development of custom engineered solutions — from the initial design phase through 3D computer modeling — where customers and AMD engineers participate in an interactive process to create a motor that exceeds the requirements of its application.
The results speak for themselves: A line of AC and DC traction and pump motors and after-market parts that satisfy the motor requirements of some of the most successful and prominent companies in their respective industries.
