Chassix Inc., a Southfield, Mich.-based supplier of aluminum and cast iron casting machined chassis, powertrain and sub-frame components, has changed its name to Aludyne.

The company says the new name better reflects its lightweight materials and the auto industry’s transformation to mobility services.
Aludyne, which emerged from bankruptcy in 2015, had sales of $1 billion last year. Former ZF Friedrichshafen AG executive Andreas Weller was appointed CEO in January.
