The molds are made from a permanent steel pattern which is reusable. The mold cooling rates are tightly controlled to maximize the mechanical properties of the aluminum. Aluminum enters the mold in the bottom under pressure and a vacuum is applied to the top of the mold.

Advantages

• Mold filling rates are controlled
• Cooling technology to maximize mechanical properties
• Run complex casting designs
• Ability to use complex cores for hollow castings
