Came, a specialist in components for electric motors, windings and aluminum die casting, has redesigned the layout of its die casting plant. The aim of these measures was to bring delivery speed and operational flexibility more in line with customer needs.

SAG Slovakia - a wholly owned subsidiary of the Salzburger Aluminium Group - will start production at its new site in the SIHOT industrial park near Trencin. The SAG Group invested around 1.5 million euros in the relocation, expansion and extended technical equipment.

OMAR, which is already a partner of ALUMIL for the supply of fumes and pollutants extraction systems coming from melting processes, has recently built a new fumes extraction and filtration system for one of the Group's factory and, through its ITR Recycling Technologies, division, has also provided for a new recycling plant for scraps and aluminum profiles.

On Tuesday, May 11, once more, a comprehensive programme of lectures and workshops awaits the participants of the EUROGUSS MEXICO Virtual Weeks. It is still possible for die casting experts from around the world to participate in the international Virtual Weeks. Registered participants can watch all presentations on-demand once the event is over.

We made the reality check and asked 560 users from different industries. The evaluation of the results confirmed our theses, but also surprised us. We have summarized all results in a white paper for you.

Magnesium die casting has an enormous field of application: Many different engineering disciplines benefit from the special material properties of this non-ferrous metal.

In 2013, the IMA published the study "Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) of Magnesium Components in Vehicle Construction," which was written by the Institute of Vehicle Concepts of the German Aerospace Center. This report details the results of the update.

One of the next decades’ goals will be a further reduction of emissions to lower the growing environmental impact. Considering this, light metals as construction materials are generally viewed to become critical in the future.

Holder GmbH Oberflächentechnik has developed a new cascade process for cleaning aluminum parts which saves resources – about half of the necessary energy and fresh water, and about a quarter of the CO2 emissions.

Structural components are becoming increasingly important in automotive applications. In addition, there are components for electric vehicles, such as battery housings or castings for components of the 5G network. The trend towards larger components can clearly be observed. These are undisputed challenges, but also a great opportunity for die casting.

Enable Manufacturing, a relative newcomer to the Additive Manufacturing sector, has announced the launch of its new Vacuum Additive Casting process that is expected to challenge established processes and players in the manufacturing world of metal parts.

In the multidisciplinary field of foundry, much can be done for good mechanical properties, but much can also be spoiled. This article addresses the question of how to achieve the right casting properties.

Back in 2013, the International Magnesium Association published the study "Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) of Magnesium Components in Vehicle Construction," which was written by the Institute of Vehicle Concepts of the German Aerospace Center. This article details the latest results of the update.

TCT Asia 2021 ended on May 28. With real-world applications and cutting-edge technologies, it is the largest 3D printing technology professional exhibition in Asia. YIZUMI, which presented its SpaceA-2000-500-S Industrial Pellet 3D Printer, was also present. Check out the exhibition vlog and CEO interview of Yizumi here.

The International Aluminium Institute (IAI) has today published the most comprehensive greenhouse gas emissions reductions pathways available to the aluminum sector over the next three decades. The pathways are based on the IAI’s unrivalled data and leading analysis of the global aluminum industry.

TCT Asia 2021 kicked off in Shanghai New International Expo Center on May 26, 2021. YIZUMI has showcased one set of SpaceA Industrial Pellet 3D Printers, the SpaceA-2000-500-S. The event will last for three days.
