Plaster

Low-pressure aluminum die casting machine AL 10-7 SC – highly flexible with furnace exchange system.

The use of sand cores for moulds or the casting of complete sand packages is a well-known, common process. If an extremely high surface quality without any visible imperfections is required, plaster cores are used.

KURTZ also has extensive experience in the production of parts in low-pressure die casting process.

KURTZ was able to convince their customers to use low-pressure die casting process instead of gravity die casting process for their new projects. A considerable reduction of post-casting machining and re-melting of gating and risers was achieved; furthermore, low-pressure allows for optimal metal preparation in the casting furnace and for a highly-repeatable surface quality and pressure build-up.

Only by utilizing the the synergies provided by the KURTZ die design team, aluminum foundry and foundry machine division is it possible to provide and realize a complete package for the customer.
