Aluminium casting
Our motto for three generations: top quality, reliability and delivery dependability. For over 75 years we have specialised in corrosion-resistant and anodised-capable aluminium alloys. We like taking on tasks which are demanding in the field of casting, as much as we do process-optimised series productions. In this way, we have made a name for ourselves in Europe as a supplier to the automotive and machinery industries.
But we want even more! From conceptualisation to implementation in finished assemblies, we offer you all-round support for your products. Make use of our experience in aluminium casting and as a system supplier.
We look forward to a good cooperation.
All-round support for your product
Consultation
On request, our team can be available to help you right from the planning phase of a new product. We can help you decide on an optimal and economical casting design.
Conception and construction
We develop the moulds and emulation tools for your castings. With 75 years experience in aluminium casting, the close cooperation between our casters, tool designers and design engineers guarantee you an optimal result.
Tool and mould construction
Our tool designers construct, maintain, and service the tools and moulds for your castings. They always ensure top condition of the tools and guarantee their constant availability.
We cast exclusively in mould casting processes
Due to fast heat dissipation, the mould casting has a fine-grained, dense structure with good mechanical properties. This process enables the manufacture of gas and liquid-tight fittings. The cast parts have a high level of dimension accuracy and finish quality and only need to be processed to a very small extent. In addition, the process is very productive.
Process characteristics: along with die casting, mould casting belongs to the precision casting processes. Casts are lowered into metallic permanent moulds in two or more parts for removing the finished cast part. Hollows and indentations are created using grains from metal or sand and shell moulding material. Because of the high thermal conductivity, the mould solidifies the molten material very fast, which results in a fine-grained structure. We have modern facilities with corresponding peripheries, which are either partly or fully-automatically linked to their production units.
| Form: | metallic permanent mould, grains out of metal or moulding material |
| Form durability: | heavily dependent on the mould material, the casting material and the part geometry. With aluminium, up to 100,000 casting cycles are possible. |
| Tolerances approx.: | 0.3 to 0.6 % for light metal alloys, according to DIN 1688 T3. |
Complete processing
We fully process your casting. Plastering, grinding, turning, milling, drilling and thread cutting to a ready-to-install casting are, for us, a matter of course.
Surface finishing
We finish the surfaces of your castings. You can choose from the following surfaces: untreated (cleanly cast and deburred), polished, trowalised, high-gloss polished, technically anodised, decoratively anodised or colour-coated.
Assembly
Our assembly department completes and assembles your castings to finished products or assemblies. On request, the finished products are provided with your individual packaging and/or company label.
Storage and delivery
We store and commission your manufactured castings with all accessories at your request and ensure that your products arrive at your or your customer site on time. Next to first-class quality, adherence to delivery dates and schedules is for us the most important pre-requisite for a good and long-term cooperation.
