ONE REQUIREMENT · ONE PACKAGE · ONE POINT OF CONTACT
01 / WHAT WE DO

Everything between the valve and the delivery note.

Individual items or the complete automated assembly. Specified, priced, bought, built and documented.

01

VALVE AUTOMATION

Complete automated valve assemblies, with valve, actuator, mounting and controls specified to work together.

02

ACTUATION

Pneumatic and electric actuator selection, matched to the valve, the duty and the site.

03

SWITCHBOXES & POSITION MONITORING

Limit switch boxes, positioners and position feedback suited to the control system and area classification.

04

SOLENOID VALVES

Pilot solenoids specified for function, voltage, materials and hazardous-area requirements.

05

PROCESS EQUIPMENT

Wider process and instrumentation equipment sourced and coordinated alongside the valve scope.

06

TECHNICAL PACKAGES

Multi-item scopes pulled into one specification, one quotation and one documentation pack.

07

PROCUREMENT

Supplier pricing, quotation and estimating, purchasing and expediting. Handled commercially as well as technically.

08

PROJECT MANAGEMENT

Programme, suppliers, assembly, testing and documentation managed through to completion.

02 / THE AMC DIFFERENCE

Not a catalogue.
A package.

Most enquiries aren’t really for one product. They’re for a valve that has to turn up automated, tested and documented, with every supplier, drawing and certificate lined up behind it.

AMC takes the requirement and takes responsibility for putting the whole package together. You get one quotation, one programme and one person to call.

Technical understanding

The specification gets read properly before anything is priced: duty, materials, area classification and interfaces.

Commercial awareness

Quotes that are clear, comparable and realistic on cost and lead time.

Supplier coordination

Valve, actuator, controls and accessory suppliers managed as one scope rather than five separate orders.

Project management

Programme, progress and problems handled, not passed back to your team.

Single point of contact

One person who knows the whole job, from enquiry to delivery.

Complete equipment packages

Assembled, tested and documented together, so it arrives ready to install.
