Less Mass Starts with a Better Cast

Our molds are made from a permanent, reusable steel pattern. Cooling rates are tightly controlled to maximize the mechanical properties of aluminum that enters the bottom of the mold via pressure resulting from a vacuum placed at the top of the mold.

• Pressure counter pressure casting (PCPC)
• High pressure die casting (HPDC)
• Vacuum riserless casting (VRC) and pressure riserless casting (PRC) for high mechanical properties

Aludyne’s pressure casting processes offer a variety of advantages to  quality, cost-effectiveness, and optimization of your product.

• Reusable permanent mold
• Multiple casting cavities (impressions) in each mold
• Controlled mold filling rates
• Closed system to contain molten aluminum
• Cooling technology maximizes mechanical processes
• Provides ability to accommodate complex casting designs
• Provides ability to use complex cores for hollow casting
• High mechanical properties
• High casting yield
• High quality

In addition to our advanced pressure casting capabilities, Aludyne offers several additional casting processes to fit the unique needs and requirements of our customers.

• Gravity die casting
• Green sand casting
• Ductile iron casting

With a diverse group of in-house machining services, we also offer fully machined and assembled castings in both aluminum and ductile iron, with a variety of additional benefits for your product and processes.

• Integration of machining requirements and casting designs
• Tight tolerance control (in microns)
• Flexible machining cells
• Automated machining processes
• Decreased project lead times
• Decreased cost and improve quality

We incorporate continuous and batch heat treatment processes for aluminum T6 heat treatment, which provides:

• Fixtured part-racking systems to minimize distortion
• Water of polyalkalene glycol quench medias
• Continuous monitoring systems for time and temperature
• Data acquisition system monitoring
• Heat treat batch lot control
