Tempocast, The advantages

Delivery time

Standard lead-time is 2-4 weeks, depending on the size and complexity. A quicker delivery time is often a matter of capacity and in many cases we have been able to produce parts within only 5 working days. The standard delivery time is also valid for simultaneous parts. For that matter projects involving 5-10 different components can all typically be carried out within our standard lead-time.

Tolerances and surface finish

Our final production tool is covered with a 6 mm water resistant soft rubber material. The characteristics of this tool enables us to produce an unlimited number of parts with tolerances and a surface finish similar to what can be achieved by pressure die casting.

Plaster properties

Special plaster recipe mixed with a number of additives results in perfect plaster moulds properties. From these we are able to cast very complex, thin walled parts with a very limited amount of porosities.

Aluminium, magnesium or zinc?

No need to choose your favourite alloy in advance You may not be sure whether an aluminium, magnesium or zinc alloy will be preferable for your article - so why not try them all from the same tooling, without extra costs or additional use?

Thin wall thickness

With the Tempocast process it is possible to cast parts with a local wall thickness down to 1 mm. Depending on the design, some areas can even be thinner.

Adjustments in existing tool

On receipt of the first prototypes, the customer can test the design and functionality of his new parts. He might then realize that some changes are necessary. For us it is no problem to carry out even complex changes or adjustments in the existing tool. Tool changes can typically be carried out within 1-2 weeks.

Small series

Small production series of e.g. 500-1000 parts or more are also an option.

Your single source

No need to find other supplies for post treatment. Our 4.800 m2 production facilities also include CNC machining, heat treatment, 3D measurement and documentation facilities. Through local suppliers we can also offer powder and wet painting.
