Pattern and casting
Pattern, molding, and casting plans are built around the part's working conditions.
Casteng
Manufacturing Technologies
Critical decisions from part concept to casting process are clarified by reading design, simulation, pattern, casting, and machining requirements together.
Design consulting
At the beginning of product development, geometry, material standard, operating conditions, and machinability are evaluated together to reduce risk before casting starts.
Pre-review of drawings and tolerance expectations
Evaluation of casting method, pattern structure, and machining allowance
Early visibility for cost, lead time, and quality risks
Simulation
Casting behavior, hot spots, feeding needs, and cooling scenarios are analyzed with a simulation mindset, reducing sample loops and supporting controlled series decisions.
Filling, cooling, and critical-zone review
Early action on shrinkage, porosity, and deformation risks
Measurable process criteria for samples and series production
Machining
Critical surfaces, tolerance chains, and assembly references move into the machining plan.
Controlled dispatch
Packaging, documents, and quality records are checked together before delivery.

Copper
Copper has high electrical and thermal conductivity. It has good corrosion resistance and can be cold formed without special difficulty, significantly hardening in the process. A distinction is made between oxygen-containing (Cu-ETP), deoxidized (Cu-HCP and DHP), and oxygen-free (Cu-OF) copper. This is particularly important during heat treatment, welding, or brazing (hydrogen embrittlement).

Brass
Brass has good corrosion resistance and is generally easy to machine. Unlike steel and aluminum alloys, brass cannot be hardened by heat treatment. However, strength can be controlled through the appropriate choice of alloy or mechanical forming (e.g. cold rolling, forging, or drawing).
More InformationBronze
Bronze differs from brass due to better mechanical properties and higher corrosion resistance. A distinction is made between wrought alloys up to 8.5% tin content and casting alloys. However, bronzes include more than just copper-tin alloys. Copper-aluminum alloys, such as CuAl10Ni5Fe4, are also referred to as bronzes ('aluminum bronzes'), with larger dimensions and tubes cast from material CuAl10Ni5Fe4-C-GC.

Red Brass, Cast Bronze, Lead Bronze
Red brass (gunmetal) has good sliding and emergency running properties, and is relatively wear and cavitation resistant. Cast bronze is characterized by high wear resistance and is used for heavy-duty sliding and gear components. Lead bronze is corrosion-resistant, has good sliding properties, and is used for axle bearings, as well as composite and mold casting material.
