Aluminium die gravity casting

Foundry of non-ferrous alloys (mainly Aluminium based) with gravity casting process using metallic moulds. The gravity die casting is usually considered a suitable alternative to the sand casting process with an improvement of geometry and thickness controls compared to this process, without reaching the pressure die casting process.
The die gravity casting process allows the possibility to use inserts and cores up to an extent which is not easily reachable with the pressure die casting process.
Series: it is not easy to define the lot size of this process as it can go from small series up to very big ones for the automotive applications. The die gravity casting process finds therefore applications on all markets.
