Quick Die - prototypes in magnesium aluminum zinc

With this process, we are offering die casting of prototypes and small series in aluminium, magnesium and zinc with machine sizes up to 2,500 tons clamping force. Following the casting process, we offer CNC post-machining of the cast items on our state-of-the-art machines, including measurements and documentation. It's a natural step before investing a lot of money in a hardened steel mould for pressure die casting. (see pressure Diecasting). 

Engineering Sketch

Why Quick Die

  • ​Professional support/close dialog in the design phase

  • Delivery time from 4-8 working weeks

  • Low tooling investments

  • Die cast properties for optimal prototyping tests

  • Fast and cheap tooling changes can be carried out

  • Rapid pilot-runs for fast market introduction

  • Short-run manufacturing of only 100 - 1.000 parts

Description of Quick Die

The process is based on a conventional high pressure die cast process, but by simplifying the tool and using unhardened steel inserts both tool price and delivery time can be reduced. With the relatively low tool costs and short production times, this process is particularly suited for the production of prototypes as well as small series productions.
