Turning your design into a series-ready component
At the beginning, we discuss the technical and commercial requirements of your component with you. Together, we clarify the application, quantities, material, quality requirements and the desired scope of machining, coating or assembly.
We then assess how your component can be implemented in the most technically and economically effective way. This includes evaluating geometry, material requirements, production risks and potential optimisation opportunities.
Based on this assessment, you will receive a quotation. In the subsequent technical coordination, we jointly define the key technical parameters of the project, such as the tooling concept, feeding system and the further process.
After your approval, we start implementation. We initiate all necessary steps, coordinate project preparation and create the basis for a reliable start of series production.
Before the start of series production, the component is sampled and inspected against the defined requirements. Together with you, we review the results, carry out final optimizations where necessary and, with your approval, create the basis for a reliable transition into series production.
After successful approval, your component enters series production. Depending on your requirements, we take on further process steps such as machining, coating and assembly – through to the delivery of the ready-to-install component.
We support you in designing your component for casting and manufacturing – from the initial design through to the assembly-ready end product. The focus is on functionally reliable geometry, a process-capable tolerance and datum concept according to ISO GPS / GD&T, and clearly defined requirements for functional surfaces and surface finishes. This helps minimise production risks at an early stage – making implementation in casting and machining predictable, stable and cost-efficient.
Casting quality does not start in production – it starts with design. That is why we review and optimise your component design at an early stage using solidification simulation with MAGMASOFT®. This ensures that geometry, feeding, gating system and process parameters are aligned with the casting process – before tooling costs arise or series production issues occur.
Simulation makes the solidification and feeding behaviour transparent and allows us to identify critical areas where shrinkage cavities, porosity or cracks can typically occur. Based on these results, we develop specific measures for process and component optimisation – practical, production-ready and cost-efficient.
The material plays a decisive role in component quality, service life and cost-effectiveness. In our materials consulting, we support you in selecting and specifying suitable materials for cast products – tailored to requirements, operating conditions and the manufacturing process.
In doing so, we take into account factors such as mechanical loads, temperature and corrosion exposure, weight requirements, machinability, as well as relevant standards and specifications. The aim is to develop a material concept that is technically reliable while also enabling cost- and process-optimised series production.
Our experts will be happy to assist you with your requirements and develop the right solution with you.
