The Association of German Die Casting Foundries e.V. (VDD) is committed to EUROGUSS as conceptual sponsor for at least four more years and will continue to organize Die Casting Day every two years parallel to EUROGUSS in the Exhibition Center Nuremberg.

Through its subsidiary, KS HUAYU AluTech GmbH, a joint venture with Chinese automotive supplier HASCO, the technology group Rheinmetall AG has won a new contract from a German premium carmaker.

In this interview, Cornel Mendler, the new Managing Director of Bühler Die Casting, says that larger and intelligent die casting solutions are the drivers in the industry. He sees mobility transformation, digitalization and sustainability as a key focus in the years ahead.

Lethiguel company, a French firm operating in the light metal casting industry, has acquired a 100 % stake in Midland Technologies Incorporated, Minneapolis-based casting solution provider that specializes in vent and vacuum technologies. Transaction was completed on July 2, 2021.

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.

Testing failure of housing assembly was observed at client end, as leakage was seen from tube joint during vibration testing. Similar leakage observed at customer test after approx. 390 h. Tube was found to come out of the mixer body in some cases.

In line with the rise of the EV industry, Laserax releases a turnkey solution made specifically to clean battery modules on conveyor lines. The Battery Cleaning Machine can be powered by up to 500W of laser power to minimize cycle time when preparing surfaces for welding. It also offers unmatched cleaning quality assisted by cameras.

Volume Graphics is extending data export to the statistics software Q-DAS qs-STAT from its software for non-destructive testing based on industrial computed tomography.

Manufacturing companies in many sectors are currently struggling with supply bottlenecks for essential semi-finished products, starting materials and raw materials.

There are currently over 8000 die casting machines made by YIZUMI operating worldwide. “We Walk Alongside the World” has been YIZUMI’s corporate objective. To achieve this ambitious goal and establish a high reputation for products made in China, YIZUMI not only constantly expands investment in facility construction and scales up itself but also strengthens its soft power—technical capabilities.

Aluminum is one of the most valuable raw industrial materials due to its versatility, low weight, and high durability. It is used to produce castings for a huge range of products and components. In this article, we’ll take a closer look at the history of aluminum production, the properties of aluminum, and why aluminum plays a crucial role in light metal casting.

Forty years of know-how and the application of the most advanced technological solutions in scrap processing and sorting allow Raffmetal to present to the market a revolutionary range of primary grade aluminum alloys from recycling in continuous casting with performances equal to aluminum alloys produced from bauxite.

Smooth inspection processes are the key to consistently high product quality and thus to the sustainable, economic success of a manufacturing company. To make quality assurance more precise, faster and more efficient, continuous automation of the process chain makes sense.
