Aluminum Sand Castings
Key Benefits
Light Weight
High Strength
Reduced Machining Times
Our aluminum castings are used for their light weight, and are applied to a
wide range of commercial and aerospace parts.
Applications include: racing, medical, environmental testing, boating,
machinery, aerospace, military, naval, automotive prototyping, food
processing, etc....
Our induction melting equipment offers us the ability to melt cleanly and
without the H2O associated with burning fossil fuels -- that can introduce
Hydrogen into the melt. The result is porosity free aluminum.
