AUTOMOTIVE

CHALLENGE:
Create a new aluminum sand casting
for building of Nitrogen-energized
racing shock system for major
snowmobile manufacturer.

RESULTS:

  • A 356.2 Sr modified heat treated
    to a T6 condition (on site)
  • Complex core geometry to
    complete passage.
  • 100% pressure tight casting.
  • 500 psi operating pressure.
  • Machining completed including
    swivel bearing installed to a
    .0005" fit.
  • Anodized coating added as
    required.
  • Customer success was reached
    because of single house
    responsiblity for casting tooling,
    machining an fixture building
    in-house then completing 4000
    sets.
 

 


HIGH & LOW VOLTAGE APPLICATIONS

CHALLENGE:
Construct new casting to eliminate
3 previously assembled parts. Pass all
design and testing criteria for current
carrying casting in Aluminum Bronze
Alloy CDA 95200.

RESULTS:

  • Alloy achieves excellent U.T.S.
    of 75,000 p.s.i. and corrosion
    resistance.
  • Casting Unique Parting line and
    outside coring.
  • Machining: 3 planes supporting
    contacts, mounting and
    interrupter feature.
  • Ship 150/month Cast and
    machined.

 

 


HIGH PRESSURE FLUID HANDLING

 

 

 

 

 

CHALLENGE:
Gravity permanent mould aluminum casting for non-drip recoupling application. Operating pressure - 250 p.s.i.

RESULTS:

  • Allow A356.2 T6
  • Cores accomplished as material
    web inside part.
  • 4 "O" ring seal surfaces .32
    micro-finish or better.
  • 100% pressure tight
  • Anodized coating applied.
