Contact us to discuss your project, and we will guide you through the different methods.
Sand Casting
The original casting method, known for thousands of years, by which a mould is made of sand.
Die Casting
A casting method in which we use a permanent steel mould, i.e. the same mould is used all the time.
High Pressure Die Casting
High pressure die casting is used for items that require precision, and which are to be manufactured in large quantities (from a few hundred to several thousand per year).
Plaster Casting
This method is appropriate for short series, thin-walled items and where there is a requirement for high precision.
Machining
We machine most of the castings we produce in our modern machine shop. Using modern NC machinery, measuring, leak testing, assembly and packing is the norm for us. Our close cooperation with surface treatment workshops and subcontracted assemblers means we can deliver directly to the customer’s assembly line.
Quality
We have well-defined quality assurance procedures in which radiography, penetrant testing, leak testing, impregnating, material analysis and verification using CMMs are fundamental elements of our production process.
