Join us for this event being held in conjunction with Technology Connected at CastAlum, an internationally acclaimed aluminium die casting and machining centre located in Welshpool. The site was a Greenfield development in the winter of 2000-2001, serving one customer only. 20 years on, the company supplies parts to the UK, Europe, Canada, and Mexico. They have grown from die casting aluminium parts, to supplying a range of products (using high pressure die casting, squeeze die casting, and machining).
90% of all production is for export, their components going into vehicles such as BMW, Ford, General Motors, Porsche, Mercedes, Jaguar Land Rover, as well as non-automotive customers.
Over the past 9 years they have heavily invested in the development of new products, processes, and capabilities. Through their own investigation and expertise, their process solutions meet world class quality standards. Their “Forward Focus” ethos drives change as their customers’ needs grow meeting the new challenges of Electric Vehicle (EV) and Low Carbon Vehicle (LCV) technology.
Through investment & understanding of Additive Material Technology to aid with conformal cooling, they now have a wealth of experience and data to support the development of lightweight casting technology without sacrificing properties or durability.
