At Australloy quality Aluminium Castings can be produced via the following processes.

Gravity Die Casting is the method used with permanent steel moulds with gravity filling for large volume production. This method is also ideal for complex castings.

Sand Casting  is the method  generally utilised for low volume castings where die tooling costs can not be justified. It requires sand moulds to be created and bonded together using synthetic compounds, upon assembly the moulds are gravity filled and the sand broken out after solidification.

Core Blowing and Shell Cores is an expendable mould casting process that uses a resin covered sand to form the mould. As compared to sand casting, this process has better dimensional accuracy and higher productivity rates.

Additional On-Site Production Processes include:

Heat Treatment - Solution Heat Treatment to T6 and Ageing.

Impregnation processes is available in house to customers requiring pressure tightness and leak resistance in critical castings such as pumps and tanks.

Machining Services  are available through our 3rd Party Network or by our customer.

Metrology is performed throughout the manufacturing process and includes an ARL Spectrograph.

File Information and Design Transfer is via Solidworks CAD by hard or soft copy transfer, or from a customer drawing.

Pattern Making Services are available through our 3rd Party Network or by our customer.
Australloy can provide Technical Support for Tooling/Pattern design including Gating, Runners and Raisers.
