PRECICAST METAL CASTING TECHNOLOGY
Precision Casting Services with PRECICASTTM Metal Casting
Technology - a proprietary sand and ceramic casting process
specifically developed to produce highly complex metal
parts for prototype and “bridge” production
requirements.
Typical volume applications: 50 - 5,000 castings per year
Intricate Metal Castings:
• without the cost of die cast tooling
• without the long lead times
• without porosity
• without quantity limitations
|
 |
Special Advantages:
•
Thin walls
• Tall pins and fins
•
Deep & narrow pockets
• As-cast features
• No porosity |
 |
Benefits of PRECICAST Technology:
• accelerate time-to-market for new products
•
achieve die-cast quality for low and medium volumes
• reduce weight and minimize machining requirements
• postpone the manufacture of expensive tooling
• ensure high quality spare parts when production
stops
Examples of castings:
Steps of the PRECICAST Process:
Thermal & mold filling simulation:
• design and testing of the gating and feeding
systems
• compensation for liquid shrinkage and prediction
of cold shut |
 |
Plastic tooling with high-speed CNC machining
• tooling tolerance of ± 0.002”
• complete tooling plate with gating and feeding
systems is machined at the same time |
 |
PRECICAST molding process:
• a thin ceramic layer is backed up with
highly compressed sand
• air-film technique is used for de-molding
• fully automated and computer controlled
equipment |
 |
PRECICAST metal casting method
• automatic casting by “stopper system”
avoids human error
• special degassing guarantees oxide free
castings
• fluidized bed heat treatment and thermal
de-coring ensures mechanical properties almost identical
to die-cast parts, and perfect temperature control
eliminates stresses in castings
