Everything a gravity die cast part needs, under one roof

Casting, die making, machine building and plant setup — use one service or all of them.

Aluminium gravity die casting being removed from the die

01

Gravity Die Casting

Sound, dimensionally consistent aluminium castings in LM25, LM6, ADC12 and A356 — cast in dies we design and build ourselves, from trial batch to series supply.

  • LM25, LM6, ADC12 and A356 aluminium alloys
  • Optional heat treatment, including T6
  • Sand or metal cores for internal passages

Die Design & Manufacturing

We design the die around your part — parting line, gating, risers, cores and cooling — then build, trial and correct it in our own die shop until the casting meets the drawing.

  • Design-for-casting review of your drawing
  • Die design: parting line, gating, risers, cores, cooling
  • Die build in our own die shop

GDC Machines & Furnaces

Gravity die casting machines and melting and holding furnaces, designed by people who run them every day and sized for your parts and output.

  • Tilting and static GDC machines
  • Aluminium melting and holding furnaces
  • Sized to your part range and output

04

Turnkey Plant Setup

Starting a gravity die casting unit? We plan the layout, supply machines, furnaces and dies, and stay through trials until your line produces approved parts.

  • Plant layout and equipment plan
  • GDC machines, furnaces and dies from one supplier
  • Installation and commissioning

05

Prototype to Volume Production

Prove the design and the die with a trial batch before you commit, then scale to scheduled series supply on the approved process.

  • Trial castings for fitment, testing and customer approval
  • Small batches for new product launches
  • Scheduled series supply on the approved die
