CASTING
HPDC provides the shortest route from molten metal to completed component, by injecting molten metal into a hardened steel mould and allowing it to solidify under pressure before ejection.
The process allows fast, precise, cost effective production of aluminium die castings, meeting the needs of hi-tech industries where product appearance and dimensional tolerances are critical. We have high pressure die casting machines with locking forces of between 250 and 400 tons. A 630-ton machine is included in our investment plan for the next year
Small Quantities? - No Problem!
Most HPDC foundries only offer their services for high volume orders, claiming that lengthy set-ups make the process prohibitive to small quantities of aluminium die castings. We have optimised our tooling preparation and set-up operations to make the process more accessible to customers who require only small quantities, but whose applications would benefit from the excellent dimensional and cosmetic properties of pressure die casting. So, V.I.P. Ltd. can provide the complete service, whether you require a batch of 10 or 10,000.
The important thing in this case is the customer satisfaction.
For low volumes we also provide gravity casting in permanent molds.
