Depending on the project, aluminium casting is carried out through a “hot” or “low” process. Diecasting is one of the most economical and fast molding processes. The advantage of this production process is that hundreds of thousands of castings can be produced relatively quickly using a single mold. All parts produced are of uniform quality
